Taken from the LFS Wiki Manual:
How to get colored player/server name? / Type messages in color?
Insert a ^ character (you get that typing alt+94) and a number between 0-8 to the name field or message box.
Basically just go ingame and choose start a new server (just as a test). There you can practice making your colored servername. Start it, but then close LFS after. Then go into your LFS directory and open up the cfg.txt file, and scroll to this line: Server Name
Beside that you should see your server name in its color code so you can enter it into your dedicated server's configuration file.
Would look something like this for example:
Server Name ^1[dsrc] ^7Battle Grounds ^4#2

Hi.
I'm just wondering how this works with the new Q-patch?
(i.e. typing ^7 in front of the server name to get it white, doesn't work, it only shows a 7.)

Obviously that doesn't work, when you start a /dedicated=nogfx server from a .bat file :owl:
