    Default Skirmish Changing Colours

    Is it possible to play skirmish as a colour other than red?

    There is one way. But you need a version of the game which allows you to add computers in multiplayer games. Do you have that?

    Yep, I can add computer players to multiplayer hosted games though I can't change my colour there, either.

    Here's the trick, I learned this while attempting to get a game going with my dad a while ago. The problem is, you need two computers.

    Basically, Computer01 hosts the game. Then Computer02 joins it, and will be Blue. Then Computer01 leaves the match, and Computer02 becomes the host and remains Blue. That's the trick. It SHOULD work, but I haven't actually used it since as I don't play DK2 as often nor care what color I am when I do. Still, try it out. I'm pretty sure it will work ;P

    Well if it means he found it on the way of trying to increase the max, then I would imagine it requires some modifying of the game or something (Like playing with the palettes or something) which would be a more permenant effect until you undo said changes. Though I must say I am interested in how he did this.

    Don't have two computers, so I guess I can't do it
