i dont know how to change player colors

[CanMan]

do i have to change the status bar face too?

No, that should be OK.

There is an element of the status bar that can change with player colour in multiplayer games, but it's the background to the face, not the face itself.

If so, then it is a related problem. My guess is that, with Chex loaded, the game "knows" that the colour range that should be subject to remapping for the player sprites is not green but blue (I just checked - the game does indeed "know" that).[/edit]

It's much simpler:

DoomPlayer has "Player.ColorRange 112, 127;"
ChexPlayer has "player.colorrange 192, 207;" with this comment added: //Not perfect, but its better than everyone being blue.

The game doesn't need to know, you can just define the desired range on your player class.

Yup:

If you are interested in defining a totally new player class, then you can set which colours are the ones subject to alteration in the preferences menu by including Player.ColorRange in your player definition.

I'm a little bit rusty with some of the inner workings of GZDoom, having been semi-away for some time, but it's coming back to me.

By creating your own custom player class and adding the appropriate code:
