Console color formatting with 1.7

[Slind]

Hey,

 

in 1.6 (first line below) the color formatting worked fine in console. Now switching to 1.7 (second line) it doesn't work anymore. I couldn't find anything specific on this topic. Do I need to do something else or has the color support on console been dropped?

 

sender.sendChatToPlayer(ChatMessageComponent.createFromText(EnumChatFormatting.RED + "text goes here");
sender.addChatMessage(new ChatComponentText(EnumChatFormatting.RED + "text goes here");

[Slind]

mhh, am I the only one using colors in console?

[Matthbo]

sender.sendChatToPlayer(ChatMessageComponent.createFromText(EnumChatFormatting.RED + "text goes here");
sender.addChatMessage(new ChatComponentText(EnumChatFormatting.RED + "text goes here");

 

I don't know know what "sender" is, but looking at the code it should work.

Sender is the normal ICommandSender.

when using colors it looks like this in the console, while it was displayed properly with 1.6:

?eEntityTFDeer ?7twilightforest.entity.passive.EntityTFDeer

What do you mean by console? This should work fine for the in-game chat gui, but it won't work in the application console (you can only have two colours depending on whether you use System.out or System.err)

here an example:

1.6 with the code I referenced above:

1.7 with the code I referenced above:

I'm just gonna ask - were you (then) and are you now using normal server? (clean forge with just your mod, counting dev. env.)

Judging from output 1st picture looks like cauldron which had support for colored console msgs.
