No, it is not. Only SayText and SayText2 have that type of capabilities.

Interesting, I hadn't seen that before. Well, if it is possible with SM, it is possible with SP. Do you have a link to the script that does that so we can take a look?

I figured it out after a bit of searching. As far as I know, this only works in CS:GO:

Syntax: Select all

from events import Event
from messages import HintText

message = HintText(message="This is a <font color='#FF0000'>test</font> \n" +
    "<font color='#00FF00'>This is another</font> <font color='#0000FF'>test</font>")

@Event
def player_say(game_event):
    message.send()

Very interesting, thank you for bring this to our attention!!! I did just test this in CS:S, and verified it does not work for that game. I guess there could be other games it works for, but this is the first I have ever heard about this.

I sadly don't have the space for a CS:GO dedi install.

I did a bit of testing on this and a lot of HTML codes seem to work. However stuff like ability to hyperlink and display images is still a mystery to me.

A few codes I found that work. (<b>, <p>, <li>, <font>, <i>, etc)

To display text larger than 64 units. You will have to use <table> and construct a table with a width and height though. Otherwise the text won't display.

E.g. <font size='64'>Test Text</font>

UPDATE: Giving a table a background colour, will make no text appear at all.
