MOD | This page includes mods. The content is not part of normal DF as released. Changing game files can sometimes cause unexpected results, and should always be done with care and caution. |
Using Color Schemes
To use a color scheme, copy/paste a color list found below over <your Dwarf Fortress folder>/data/init/init.txt file's last section, where a similar list should already be present. (This list is the "default scheme" listed below when you first install the game.)
Default Scheme
If you lose the default scheme and neglected to make a backup, you can find the standard here, without having to download DF again.
[BLACK_R:0] [BLACK_G:0] [BLACK_B:0] [BLUE_R:0] [BLUE_G:0] [BLUE_B:128] [GREEN_R:0] [GREEN_G:128] [GREEN_B:0] [CYAN_R:0] [CYAN_G:128] [CYAN_B:128] [RED_R:128] [RED_G:0] [RED_B:0] [MAGENTA_R:128] [MAGENTA_G:0] [MAGENTA_B:128] [BROWN_R:128] [BROWN_G:128] [BROWN_B:0] [LGRAY_R:192] [LGRAY_G:192] [LGRAY_B:192] [DGRAY_R:128] [DGRAY_G:128] [DGRAY_B:128] [LBLUE_R:0] [LBLUE_G:0] [LBLUE_B:255] [LGREEN_R:0] [LGREEN_G:255] [LGREEN_B:0] [LCYAN_R:0] [LCYAN_G:255] [LCYAN_B:255] [LRED_R:255] [LRED_G:0] [LRED_B:0] [LMAGENTA_R:255] [LMAGENTA_G:0] [LMAGENTA_B:255] [YELLOW_R:255] [YELLOW_G:255] [YELLOW_B:0] [WHITE_R:255] [WHITE_G:255] [WHITE_B:255]

Custom color schemes
Players who are not satisfied with the traditional 16-color scheme can alter things to suit their aesthetic tastes. Replace the color information text in your init file (data\init\init.txt) with the following:
"Natural" scheme
[BLACK_R:0] [BLACK_G:0] [BLACK_B:0] [BLUE_R:13] [BLUE_G:103] [BLUE_B:196] [GREEN_R:68] [GREEN_G:158] [GREEN_B:53] [CYAN_R:86] [CYAN_G:163] [CYAN_B:205] [RED_R:151] [RED_G:26] [RED_B:26] [MAGENTA_R:255] [MAGENTA_G:110] [MAGENTA_B:187] [BROWN_R:120] [BROWN_G:94] [BROWN_B:47] [LGRAY_R:185] [LGRAY_G:192] [LGRAY_B:162] [DGRAY_R:88] [DGRAY_G:83] [DGRAY_B:86] [LBLUE_R:145] [LBLUE_G:202] [LBLUE_B:255] [LGREEN_R:131] [LGREEN_G:212] [LGREEN_B:82] [LCYAN_R:176] [LCYAN_G:223] [LCYAN_B:215] [LRED_R:255] [LRED_G:34] [LRED_B:34] [LMAGENTA_R:255] [LMAGENTA_G:167] [LMAGENTA_B:246] [YELLOW_R:255] [YELLOW_G:218] [YELLOW_B:90] [WHITE_R:255] [WHITE_G:255] [WHITE_B:255]

Another scheme

True CGA Scheme
This scheme uses the genuine CGA palette, in case you're a purist. Note that the CGA "brown" is difficult to distinguish from "red" unless it is immediately nearby.
[BLACK_R:0] [BLACK_G:0] [BLACK_B:0] [BLUE_R:0] [BLUE_G:0] [BLUE_B:170] [GREEN_R:0] [GREEN_G:170] [GREEN_B:0] [CYAN_R:0] [CYAN_G:170] [CYAN_B:170] [RED_R:170] [RED_G:0] [RED_B:0] [MAGENTA_R:170] [MAGENTA_G:0] [MAGENTA_B:170] [BROWN_R:170] [BROWN_G:85] [BROWN_B:0] [LGRAY_R:170] [LGRAY_G:170] [LGRAY_B:170] [DGRAY_R:85] [DGRAY_G:85] [DGRAY_B:85] [LBLUE_R:85] [LBLUE_G:85] [LBLUE_B:255] [LGREEN_R:85] [LGREEN_G:255] [LGREEN_B:85] [LCYAN_R:85] [LCYAN_G:255] [LCYAN_B:255] [LRED_R:255] [LRED_G:85] [LRED_B:85] [LMAGENTA_R:255] [LMAGENTA_G:85] [LMAGENTA_B:255] [YELLOW_R:255] [YELLOW_G:255] [YELLOW_B:85] [WHITE_R:255] [WHITE_G:255] [WHITE_B:255]
For a slightly more readable version, you can "cheat" and replace the BROWN_G with the following:
[BROWN_G:170]
| BLACK | BLUE |
| GREEN | CYAN |
| RED | MAGENTA |
| BROWN | LGRAY |
| DGRAY | LBLUE |
| LGREEN | LCYAN |
| LRED | LMAGENTA |
| YELLOW | WHITE |
(Yet) Another scheme
[BLACK_R:0] [BLACK_G:0] [BLACK_B:0] [BLUE_R:32] [BLUE_G:48] [BLUE_B:144] [GREEN_R:48] [GREEN_G:144] [GREEN_B:32] [CYAN_R:32] [CYAN_G:128] [CYAN_B:144] [RED_R:151] [RED_G:26] [RED_B:26] [MAGENTA_R:112] [MAGENTA_G:32] [MAGENTA_B:144] [BROWN_R:144] [BROWN_G:112] [BROWN_B:48] [LGRAY_R:176] [LGRAY_G:176] [LGRAY_B:176] [DGRAY_R:112] [DGRAY_G:112] [DGRAY_B:112] [LBLUE_R:40] [LBLUE_G:56] [LBLUE_B:255] [LGREEN_R:48] [LGREEN_G:240] [LGREEN_B:32] [LCYAN_R:56] [LCYAN_G:208] [LCYAN_B:255] [LRED_R:255] [LRED_G:48] [LRED_B:32] [LMAGENTA_R:208] [LMAGENTA_G:56] [LMAGENTA_B:255] [YELLOW_R:255] [YELLOW_G:224] [YELLOW_B:32] [WHITE_R:255] [WHITE_G:255] [WHITE_B:255]
| BLACK | BLUE |
| GREEN | CYAN |
| RED | MAGENTA |

| DGRAY | LBLUE |
| LGREEN | LCYAN |
| LRED | LMAGENTA |
| YELLOW | WHITE |
For the Chromatically Challenged
Colour blindness can result in colours being too similar, such as red and brown, so this scheme sacrifices true colour accuracy for a greater difference in hues. If you have normal colour vision, then this probably looks really weird.
[BLACK_R:0] [BLACK_G:0] [BLACK_B:0] [BLUE_R:0] [BLUE_G:0] [BLUE_B:192] [GREEN_R:0] [GREEN_G:128] [GREEN_B:0] [CYAN_R:0] [CYAN_G:112] [CYAN_B:144] [RED_R:192] [RED_G:0] [RED_B:0] [MAGENTA_R:160] [MAGENTA_G:0] [MAGENTA_B:128] [BROWN_R:96] [BROWN_G:96] [BROWN_B:0] [LGRAY_R:192] [LGRAY_G:192] [LGRAY_B:192] [DGRAY_R:128] [DGRAY_G:128] [DGRAY_B:128] [LBLUE_R:48] [LBLUE_G:48] [LBLUE_B:255] [LGREEN_R:0] [LGREEN_G:224] [LGREEN_B:0] [LCYAN_R:64] [LCYAN_G:224] [LCYAN_B:255] [LRED_R:255] [LRED_G:48] [LRED_B:48] [LMAGENTA_R:255] [LMAGENTA_G:64] [LMAGENTA_B:224] [YELLOW_R:255] [YELLOW_G:255] [YELLOW_B:64] [WHITE_R:255] [WHITE_G:255] [WHITE_B:255]
