    Hi there folks!
    I've seen a few servers change the colur of the MoTD when browsing through your server list in minecraft(Not in the server yet) and was wondering if anyone knew how it was done?

    Here is an image showing what i mean. server-colur.png

    Any help will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance.

    Anyone?

    I'm pretty sure they used stranded Minecraft Color Codes.
    Here is a simple color guide: http://ess.khhq.net/mc/

    Hey Nxtguy.
    Thanks for the suggestion but i've already tried and it just comes out as the colur codes (&c, &6, &a etc)
    I'm beginning to think they you may have to modify the bukkit.jar file to enable it in some way unless there is some "magically" plugin that can modify how the user sees the server without even being on it.
    Thanks for the help anyway.

    Any other suggestions?

    If you would that would be extremely helpful!
    Any idea of how long it would take to make? (I'm not very experienced with Java so I really have no idea)

    Awesome! Thank you so much!
    We do have the server upgraded to accepted 1.4.2 clients but with the 1.3.2 server file so hope it works..

    Just a quick question, when changing the colurs do I just use normal colur codes or is there some format i need to use?

    How do you mean to accept 1.4.2 clients but still on 1.3.2? There is a version of 1.4.2 out if your not using it, and there is not special format, just &<a-f|0-9>.

    Ah okay, thanks!
    I'm not completely sure about that to be honest.
    We're two owners of the server, the other owner is usually doing all the update and plugins stuff.
    I just fix the website whenever there is trouble with that :p
    Thanks anyway!

    Edit: I just tested the plugin and it works like a charme! Thank you so much!
    I guess we're using the new bukkit version. (<-- No idea what i'm talking about)
