Had that idea back last year when people were first discussing a mod for the grey color. Just took a couple hours to edit the colors so they look good.
So I played a couple games with it and decided to only change half of the player colors (1,6,7, and 8.). Otherwise it's too hard to tell the players apart.

I don't see that great of changes for some players but others their units look awesome.
I think if you make blue more blue you will be okay. GJ on the rest though.
EDIT:
It is 16x16, count from left to right then down. Top Right-hand corner is 16, bottom right-hand corner is 256.
Examples:
11 = 11th from the left on the top row, Black.
253 = 4th from the right on the bottom, Bright Pink.

I do but I don't think that thing is right. For instance, for P7 I have #10 but counting from left to right it says it's blue.

I just made an excuse. Ignore my comment about it being hard. Really wasn't at all...this time anyways. Just tried next number up.
Anyways. I think they're quite distinguishable now.
Any chance of getting this added as an official mod?
Yeah it seems the first row skips #1 and only has 15 colors but you should still count it as 16 for colors further down. I didn't do that and was counting it as 15 and had to just go +/- a few numbers around what I thought would be a good color, which is why it probably took longer than it should.
Edit: Grammar. Too early in the am.
Not in widescreen mode it wasn't. Not for me anyways...kinda need to play a game with it to see though and I can't do that till it's an official mod. I'm sure it'll take some time getting used too period. For instance, I even thought the dark grey mod by PIN3 was P3 for a couple games till I got used to it.
When I launch the game from my desktop I see the colors but when I do it through voobly I don't?
Edit: Nvm got it to work. [You must login to view link]
