Using TagEdit (Fear for TFL) rename your mesh tag starting with a double digit number. I have no idea what numbers for what colors, so you'll have to experiment.

i try the double digit and the triple digit to. do i need to change the map description, pregame, and overhead map different number too? on tfl oo to 99 is white only just by changing the mesh.

I believe the colours work in hundreds, so 100 to 199 is (for example this is probably wrong) green, 200 to 299 is red and so-on.

I think you may have to rename both the map itself (mesh tag) and the string list tag which gives the map it's in-game name otherwise the colour change will not work.

what if i want to keep the same name (mesh tag) and change the stil file to same name but like v2.0? will that work on tfl?

Why the hell are you making plugins for Myth TFL?

Heh...maybe he isn't. This thread is a year and a half old.

The article link above works (as of 2006-08-21).

The details of the missing article are:

Its fairly simple to change the name of the Mesh ("mesh" option in Fear) to have a three digit number prior to the mesh e.g. "500 The wall" ( it will show up as green). The first digit sets the color and the other two are for the order it will appear in the list of maps.

(NOTE this does not work in Myth 3 -- Malek)

If your map is named "MyMeshName" and you want to make it appear green in the map selection list, name it "500 MyMeshName" and you'll get the color. If you have another mesh on the map you want to have the same color then name it "501 MyMeshName2", etc.

These are the colors available when naming maps:
1 = Blue
2 = Purple
3 = Red
4 = Green
5 = Olive
6 = Brown

~Baak'lor

Note about the order the maps are displayed in:

To make a map visible in the level selection list, name the mesh tag with a number ending in 01. For instance, a mesh called "01 Frenzy" will show on the list without shift-clicking, but "02 Frenzy" or "Frenzy" will not.

Also, the sorting of meshes is done in a strange way. Firstly its numerical in ascending order - ie. "01 village", "02 graveyard" etc. If the numbers are the same, then it's alphabetical in _descending_ order. So if you have "01 village A", "01 village B" then B will be listed above A.

ok I edited one of M2 solo maps and renamed it as "00 name"
So it was on the top as i wanted. Then I decided to make it blue. Changed mesh file name to "100 name" OK tts blue now but it isnt on top anymore

Is there any way to change map name color and still have it on the top of the levels list ?

No, colored maps will always be on bottom.
