This has to do with the colorblind?

Yeah not letting people choose is very silly.  "Vision of the game"???  Yeah?  Well colorblind people cant see your vision of the game.

Please include a user customisable colour palette for the icons, I am red/green deficient and would like a clearer mini map I can glance at rather than squinting and struggling with it, thanks.
I would like to be able to set the colour tones too to suit my own vision, as there are many types of colour blindness, this is the best option.

I play with a gaming community and we have a few members who happen to be red-green colorblind, and the problem they complain about most is the outline of the enemy tank.(though they do say the icons can be hard to see if the enemy is in foliage.) Icons can be modded with 3rd party mods (many use some of the available mods) but the outline cannot. Allow the color of the outline to be selectable and you will have MANY happy color blind players.

With the 6.5 patch, the enemy icons on the mini-map are no longer blue and very small. Please update this mod soon.

Thanks,

Help please. With 6.5 map icons went very very tiny and back to green and red. When playing SPG tank showed the blue icon. I tried reinstalling colorblind skin and now all tanks have green icon and the only way I can tell to opposing tanks is from the red/green icons. I am totally helpless now!

Sorry about my last post, I was pretty upset and not very clear. Following 6.5 update my first game was as an SPG. Inset map icons were very small and colored red and green. In SPG view the opposition tanks had a blue icon. I did not see any of opposition in TD mode. I exited the game and reinstalled the colorblind patch and entered as an SPG again. The inset map icons were still small and red/green. Overhead SPG view and direct sight has ALL tanks showing a green icon! I hope this helps.

Thanks

Had to give up and uninstall the game then reinstall to recover. Have been destroyed several times by opponents I could not identify against the backgrounds. The inset map is almost completely useless. It seems the developers refuse to help, I seriously resent this blatent discrimination.

That is the same one I was using. Doesn't work even after repeated installs. Back to red/green.

PLEASE CHANGE THE MESSAGE TEXT WHEN YOU ARE KILLED TO WHITE/BLUE

Yes, I'm yelling. I've about had it with this stupid game and if you can not prioritize this in the next release, I'm done.

The colorblind mod is fine - if you could just make it so that we don't have to re-install it with every patch, I would be happy - except for the things the mod can not do which is text color.

FFS - this thread feels just like all your other threads where you ask our opinion and then you never reply.

I am not sure this is a developer. The only way to change this so that the patches don't over write the mod is to change the game itself, a developer function. I deeply appreciate the efforts of individuals with greater skill at program development who take the time to help people like myself. Don't get me wrong - I REALLY resent the don't care about the color blind policy. This policy has been stated in the past very clearly. I have played since the Beta and it is a struggle when the developers don't feel 'we' are worth the effort.

The aiming reticle is almost invisible now when playing in that Artic map. Try aiming at a tank against the snow background and see your aiming reticle disappear.

It's not the fault of developer of this mod, I know that but it does show that unless Wargaming takes this in-house, issues like that are always going to be an after thought.

I am still hoping they will fix the aiming outline as it cannot be modded and it is very difficult to see when you zoom into Sniper mode.
