I hear just about every other day, the question of how do you change your smoke so this is how you do it.

First you need to have your console activated. If you do, great hit the "~" key above Tab, left of the 1 key.

If you don't have the console activated, hit Esc., and go to options. Click Keyboard, and then advanced options. Check of the box for Developers Console.

Now that you have access to the console lets talk about how to change your smoke.


Open up your console and type in ins_player_smokecolor. You'll see a list of three commands ending in r, b, and g, each for one of the primary colors; r for red, b for blue, and g for green. enter in a number between 0 and 1 to mix and match colors. If you want pure blue, set the one for "b" to 1 and the others to 0. If you want purple, set "b" to 1 and "r" to 1 and "g" to 0. You can also use some colors to lesser degrees like setting blue to 0.6 and red to 1 for a different color.

You now can make just about any color that you want to with your smoke grenades.
 
Thats pretty cool. How in the world did you find that Jedi? Is there a console command I can use to stop being killed all the time?
 
yellow doesn't work very BTW.........when you throw it, you see the trail of yellow smoke but it billows out black.

I was a little disappointed at first too, but its better in nothing :D

Maybe the next version will allow the general smoke color to change.
 
Yeah that problem seems to happen sometimes, but then others it works fine, even with me having the same color. It might have been fixed because I haven't noticed my smokes not working.
 
Hehehe............................... i found a color that changes from cyan green to Dark Green lol...
MUAHAAHAHAHHA AND ITS A SECRET!!!! LOL
Yes................... my precious color is mine and MINE ALONE!!!!! ITs pretty cool though... Its like a nova sort of design where in the center of explosion is light green while the outside is a dark shade of green and a bit of black mixed in.... ITs pretty xD
 
Way to be a part of a team Khosrowshah... Aren't you supposed to be a leader???... lol

Cmon.. let me in I won't tell anyone...
 
That sound's really cool. Definitely something you need in the heat of battle, multi-colored smoke grenades.
 
lol.............. Aight aight............ People protesting over my pretty color lol

Here is the secret lol

blue : 1.02
green: 1.03
red: 0.54


You know Jedi.... wondering if someone would protest ingame saying that the color distracts their game player which got them killed by a sniper lol

NOW THAT would be epic!!!
