[1.6.4] colored chat help

[fredoduquartier]

hello all, I was trying to make a command to get colored chat in smp and i found a command, the problem is I cant get it work:

 

the command that is used in original minecraft code

this.mcServer.getConfigurationManager().sendChatMsg(ChatMessageComponent.createFromTranslationWithSubstitutions("multiplayer.player.left", new Object[] {this.playerEntity.getTranslatedEntityName()}).setColor(EnumChatFormatting.YELLOW));

 

but i try using this command that does not work:

FMLServerHandler.instance().getServer().getConfigurationManager().sendChatMsg(ChatMessageComponent.createFromTranslationKey("multiplayer.player.left").setColor(EnumChatFormatting.YELLOW));

 

i think it is due to server because it works in normal minecraft, so it should be related to the main mod class?

 

it might also be that i use it as a command:

package updatecheck.common.commands;

import cpw.mods.fml.client.FMLClientHandler;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.FMLNetworkHandler;
import cpw.mods.fml.server.FMLServerHandler;
import updatecheck.common.StringModif;
import net.minecraft.command.CommandBase;
import net.minecraft.command.ICommandSender;
import net.minecraft.network.NetServerHandler;
import net.minecraft.src.ModLoader;
import net.minecraft.util.ChatMessageComponent;
import net.minecraft.util.EnumChatFormatting;

public class CCC extends CommandBase{

@Override
public String getCommandName() {
	// TODO Auto-generated method stub
	return "CC";
}

@Override
public String getCommandUsage(ICommandSender icommandsender) {
	// TODO Auto-generated method stub
	return "colour your chat messages!";
}

@Override
public void processCommand(ICommandSender icommandsender, String[] astring) {
	StringModif f = new StringModif();
	ChatMessageComponent s = new ChatMessageComponent();
	Object o = astring[0];
	//s = 
	FMLServerHandler.instance().getServer().getConfigurationManager().sendChatMsg(ChatMessageComponent.createFromTranslationKey("multiplayer.player.left").setColor(EnumChatFormatting.YELLOW));

}

}

 

I hope someone can help me.

@Override
public void processCommand(ICommandSender icommandsender, String[] astring) {
	StringModif f = new StringModif();

	ChatMessageComponent s = new ChatMessageComponent();
	s=f.editstring2(astring[astring.length-1]);
	//s = 
	MinecraftServer.getServer().getConfigurationManager().sendChatMsg(s);
	//UpdateCheckMod.instance.
}

}

public ChatMessageComponent editstring2(String s){
	String[] sa = s.split("#");
	int j = sa.length;
	int i;
	ChatMessageComponent q = new ChatMessageComponent();
	//q=q.addText("");
	String[] o = new String[j];
	for (i = 0; i < j; i++){

1\ Check the null values first.

2\ Don't make objects if you don't use them.

3\ You can get enum values from String.

4\

String[] o = new String[j];

Is void at initialization.

5\ The "command usage" is the help given to the player. Add some meaningful info here (parameters, expected values, etc).
