True, doesn't seem to be very easy. But if somebody does the work, it'll probably be a lot easier to copy.

Have to admit it looks great though. Somebody want to spend some time doing this with some Zerglings? just to see if and how much visibility improves?

While kind of fun, this is probably pretty useless depending on how team colors are handled.

If team colors are somehow determined in shaders or an overlay it wont matter if you reskin the zealot bright neon red, all zealots will be bright neon red with tiny patches of their respective teamcolor.

If teamcolor is a designated shade in the skin you could reskin the whole unit in this color, rendering it entirely in teamcolor brightskins (or just make it have a bit more teamcolor), which could prove useful.

will blizz get pissed off if you do this and play online?
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

I would guess so. You're modifying the game files.

skin all the terrain to be black with perfectly horizontal and vertical lines crisscrossing it. you'll be able to see the cloaked ghost in your base so easily.

oh, and all nude skin gogogo!

You can already see cloaked units rather easily you just have to be looking for it. It's harder than in BW yes but the main problem is if you're scrolling around super fast it's gonna be harder to see anyway. Though having the game on ultra and having all the extra particle effects around all the glowy crap does seem to make it harder.

Silver looks badass, still this is quite fucking near to hacking.
Don't ever do it if you don't want to get banned, seriously Blizzard won't be kidding about such things.

i think that silver would make a good white

i just hope blizzard changes the colors so that team colors are more differentiated. for those that play tf2, they allow custom skins and such, and servers can customize what editted files are allowed (ie bright team colors, anime characters, etc). i guess that wouldnt be an issue since this is gonna be all blizzards servers
