I've noticed that if you tailor an armor piece onto another strictly for the color scheme (specifically Olthoi Celdon), DCS still reports the -old- colors of the old piece. Is this the norm or is there an update that I missed? I downloaded what I thought was the new color xml (dcs.xml 97kb)

It's possible that DCS is still looking at something(somewhere) that pulls the colors from the 'old' appearance, Rhesus's Color XML is *NOT* going to change where and how it gets it's color info, it only adds/updates color info (NOT functionality).

I'll have to talk a look at a couple of my pieces that are tailored and see if I see the same issue, but if it IS a widespread issue I'm not sure how soon we'd see an update to deal with it. If i do see the issue I'll mention it to Rhesus and see if he has any ideas/thoughts on it.

Try propertydumping with vtank before and after tailoring. Maybe it retains the old palettes and just adds more palettes to the end of the list...

Is there any way to get the full color codes? For some reason I get ALOT of Unknown-# where it only shows the number but no color in the box or name of color.
