Colors of A/C Labels

A/C labels of the enemy are usually red. I thought there was a way to change them. Can anyone help here? Any ideas or am I just wrong about this....
 
Thank you BC, I probably have the HUD color change mixed up with this. In my Combat_Aces missions the enemy shows up in green and I'm not used to this as it throws me off a bit. I'll live with it and thanks again. don
 
Yeah Don...HUD color, that's a separate thing altogether and changeable, as you know. I've got a number of other combat sims too and it can be a pain trying to keep track of features and commands between them.
 
Don, i was wrong about this label color thingy. There is a way to change your colors: Go to key assignments and scroll to 'Cycle label colors'. You should have a default assignment already, but if not you can set it there and save.
 
BC, thanks. I was pretty sure about the change but then again..... Any way, in Combat_Aces the missions display British with an allegiance=6 and it should be =1. Next mission I flew showed enemy A/C with red labels and my wingmen with green labels. Mr Kestell was a great help here I might add. And yes, I am writing the "ctrl F3" command down with the rest of my ever building stack of notes. Happy flying. don
 
as alswys BC, a very good source of information, thanks budy........i forgot all about the color changes that could be made to labels and the HUD.
