Hey guys. Many may have seen me as BrandMan211 online. If you've played with me, I've requested that teal be used instead either purple or green because I can't differentiate between blue and purple, or yellow and green because I am colorblind. Is there anyway, either through a modification or a settings change that I could change the team colors?

There is a switch to change the colour scheme to allow those with certain types of colour deficiency to be able to easily distinguish problematic colour pairs. It is targeted particularly towards protanomaly. I assume from your description that you are suffering from protanopia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_blindness#Dichromacy)?
Here are the current team colors used in W:A. It would be helpful if you could come up with a set of colors that you can easily distinguish:

Deadcode (beta patch coder, colorblind) told me once that he is using a special tool that converts colors to the nearest matches that he can see appropriately.
I think he used that to come up with current alternative color scheme.

Wow! That is a very helpful feature. It's also cool to know that the most famous patch developer is like me. :P
