    trust me, this has been brought up several times and the devs say no because it can give people unfair advantages. kinda stupid, to worry more about giving people who are already jerks advantages than giving disadvantaged people a fair game.

    This is a good idea but how would that give people an unfair advantage just wondering.

    the way it helps color blind people is usually by making certain colors brighter, more visible. if someone isnt color blind it'll be easier for them to spot certain stuff than it normally is if they use it.

    There are litterly 30 other ways to change your color settings. This is not a valid excuse anymore. They got rid of the moonlight offerings to make the ambient lighting of a map much less of a factor - as it should have been from the start. At this point, they just don't want to bother with it. There is no other possible reason.

    To the OP, there is software both on Nvidia Cards and ATI cards that can help with color blindness. If you need help, just shoot me a message. They won't work as well as the devs actually doing it on their end, but they can make the game playable for people with a disability.


    Nvidia:

    If you read about NVIDIA's announcements from CES 2018, you can be forgiven for thinking that the company's "Freestyle" graphics filters were a bit of a gimmick.


    Integrated in Windows 10 (may not work on all systems in-game, never tested)

    You can enable or disable Colorblind Mode in Windows 10 by using a keyboard shortcut, using the Settings Page options or by tweaking your Registry.


    Once I find a good guide for AMD cards I'll post it.

    Edit - here is an old post with very simple instructions:

    I've seen some posts asking about colorblind modes on DBD before. I'm sure that some of you know this already, but I didn't until just a little while ago - Windows 10 does offer some settings to help people with colorblindness. Was added in a November Update I started playing killer a lot more recently and while it's been fun for the most part, I was having a real hard time seeing certain things on the maps at times. Scratch marks sometimes were real hard to follow, for example.
