[hlds] Colorblind support
I know there's already some color line support, but its for protanopics (blue/yellow colorblind users). Is there any hope for colorblindness compensation for deuteranopics (red/green)? The easiest way I can thin is to pass all the visual data through a filter sort of like pyroland does. There are readily available color palettes that compensate for various colorblindnesses: I have some readily available if you need one. Considering colorblindness affects ~10% of the population is color deficient in some way, I feel it's bound to be worthwhile for a large group of people. -James ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds
