Maybe if you make a very small customization on black color so it be not 100% black anymore this bug will vanish?

Bleh, picture will tell it better:

That should be black, but its not.

The bug is because there is some sort of IF like this:

Code: Select all

if(color){
    draw_color();
}
Or thats what i think... but still dont understand why there is such thing...

I can't reproduce it. I've set the color to 0 via regedit, but it shows black, not transparent in the lobby.

Can you go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TASClient\TeamColors and tell me what value does the color that appears transparent have?

ffffffff

Now i know how it comes: choose the black color from the windows color selector by using the user own palet, which has by default 16 black colors.

So when i chose that black, i chose it from that palet.

When i select the color myself, it works fine.
