Go to your GraphicConfigeration file:

C:\Users\"username"\AppData\Local\Frontier_Develop ments\ Products\FORC-FDEV-D-1001
right click the file and choose OPEN WITH then NOTEPAD.
now scroll down a locate this section:

<Default>
<LocalisationName>Standard</LocalisationName>
<MatrixRed> 1, 0, 0 </MatrixRed>
<MatrixGreen> 0, 1, 0 </MatrixGreen>
<MatrixBlue> 0, 0, 1 </MatrixBlue>
</Default>
Then press save and restart the game.
I copied this from someone elses post in a different thread.
But you have to check out Arkku's site for testing the colors. It's a great tool.

Yeah it's very nice, the orange is nice for a couple days, but creating your own colors is better.
Yea, this is the reason I keep my HUD on default colors. None of the RBG reassignments have good enough contrast between the orange/red for neutral/hostile ships.Be aware that chaning the colors of the HUD, will also change how the radar looks, and more specifically the colors hostiles/neutrals and friendlies will have.
You'll need to get used to that though

I found a way to get different colors on your hud, I have white, red and green right now, the rest of the cockpit is lightblue with red details and yellow text.
Can you get a screenshot of that in?
What color do your friendly / neutral / hostile ships have on the radar with that color chart?

... and what's more, you'll also change the colours in the map. IIRC, looking for a for example blue commodity will have you look at yellow lines. Or green ones, because who knows?
That is to say, I miss my muted, cool white with blue and pink-ish-orange accents.
Yea, this too. I'm currently out exploring and use the color coding on stars to assess good candidates. Light blue and yellow are usually F/G/K type stars.... and what's more, you'll also change the colours in the map. IIRC, looking for a for example blue commodity will have you look at yellow lines.

Blue means normal guys minding their own business, orange means points of interest like FS wake etc. and green means enemy.
But what are the RBG modifiers?
