Would you mind sharing your colour matrix? These HUD-colours are pretty much exactly what I've been looking for since February!
NO2O! The Definitive List of 1.7/2.2-Compatible HUD Colour/Color Configs (please add yours!)

I can, but what you see is much more than a simple color matrix.
Is it a VR-thing?
No, I've edited individual pixel shaders, which is far more detailed and "tricky" than changing a few lines in an XML config file.
I need help, trying to make some quick tweaks to an existing hud
The ANALYSIS MODE is in red and the COMBAT MODE is white. I would like to change it so the COMBAT MODE is red and the ANALYSIS MODE is white.
Here is the existing code

Are these accessible in photoshop I'm assuming? TGA or png? I know it's a lot of work to describe them but would you consider just linking a list of your files you changed? I'll figure out what's what after I break my game a few times. Nice job on your work.
Btw, my wife is in her 30's but she's told me she would run away with Peter Capaldi at any given notice.
This is the type of HUD capabilities the game needs by default. Blue and green is my jam and it's near impossible, imo, to get an actual decent combination via xml editing.
This isn't Photoshop, it's customized shaders (GPU programs) that change the colors in-game. Unfortunately it's not trivial at all, with the way Frontier "organized" their shaders. I finally made myself the perfect (for me) HUD that has minimum side-effects, but it was tricky. But it does show that it CAN be done! If I can do it, so could Frontier if they had the will.
GraphicsConfigurationOverride.xml
Because the GraphicsConfiguration.xml gets overwritten on updates - hence use the override file to avoid losing your customisations.
Hello, I'm new to the game and just started tweaking the HUD colors I've found a color I'm really happy with but the Player images are ruined. Is there an easy trick to balancing out the portraits? Or is there anyone willing to help me balance out what I have so far? Thank you in advance!

As far as I can tell, as long as each row in the matrix adds up to ~1 the portraits are fine.
Except in places like PowerPlay menus. These portraits are using a different shader for whatever reason.
hey, has anyone a fix for the first preset on the original list? specifically:
i love the green and the orange highlight. the tint isn't super bad but would prefer if it weren't there.

Reverse engineering ur banned!
What are you on about?
I would also like these colors. please share them with us
blue with pink. the faces are not distorted but in the lower and right panels the pilot's face is pink.
