Color. A thing we rarely think about when using the CC computers. I noticed something terrible with the default color palette. Its very… unsaturated. I decided to change it. This program will allow you to also apply this new, better color pallet. Requires ComputerCraft 1.8 (compiled from Github). Program contains checks.

Where are the comparisons, you may ask?
Before:


After:

Thats great! Where can I get it?

For VorbaniOS users:

pacman add rahph\ assortedtools\ default\
pacman install libvibrant 31f71ea

For everyone else:

pastebin get uV1LGLTC <filename>
<filename>


Thats all! I hope you enjoy my program :)/>

I do like change of pace this colors give me. Nicely composed.

I wouldn't say that it's "better". I, personally, prefer more pastel-ish colors over vibrant, in-your-face, colors for example.

(off-topic) I wonder how emulators will handle the new palette system when 1.8 is released.

They're going to need updating to support the feature, of course. This has already been done on CCEmuX, although it was a bit of a hack.

Right now even the mod itself barely handles it. Signs change colours when you change palettes. Yep, minecraft signs.

That is already getting fixed by https://github.com/dan200/ComputerCraft/pull/351. You just need to wait for it to get merged to enjoy normal colored signs.
