Hex Colors & Gradients in RankForge – Formats & Examples

RankForge processes custom colors natively without requiring external formatting libraries. You can use these formats across tier displays, titles, message files (languages/*.yml), and gui.yml.

Supported Formats

Section titled “Supported Formats”
Format Syntax Result
Gradient <#FF0000>Text</#0000FF> Smooth character-by-character color transition
Single Hex Tag <#00FFFF>Text Solid RGB hex color
Hex &# Tag &#FFAA00Text Solid RGB hex color
Legacy Codes &a, &c, &l, etc. Classic Minecraft color & formatting codes

Examples

Section titled “Examples”
display: "<#38BDF8>&l✦ HT1 ✦</#818CF8>"

The string ✦ HT1 ✦ will render in bold with a smooth gradient from cyan to indigo.

Parsing Order

Section titled “Parsing Order”

RankForge processes colors in strict sequence: gradient → &#RRGGBB → single <#RRGGBB> → legacy & codes. Keep in mind:

  • Gradients must always be closed as pairs: <#start>text</#end>.
  • Formatting codes like &l (bold) can be placed inside the gradient tags.
  • Hex codes must be 6 digits (#RGB 3-digit shorthand is not supported).
