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.

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.

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:

True CGA Scheme

This scheme uses the genuine CGA colours, in case you're a purist. The default colours are HTML-based in origin and are not accurate to true 16-colour graphics. 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]

[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
