Count down timer Pt. 2!

Hi, can anyone help me with changing the text color on my infamous count down timer once it reaches 1:00? In fact, I would like to change the timer color from a pacific blue to an electric green (kinda like the Seahawks colors).

Change the r, g, b of the actor:

if(totalSeconds <= 60)
{
//Red
text_minute.r = 255;
text_minute.g = 1;
text_minute.b = 1;
}

Hey, makslane, I was kinda thinking that I had to use the r g b variables... I guess I just needed some reassurance for the job... Thanks.

Right now, I am trying to make a futuristic song for my main menu. Kinda needs to be techno... Fruity Loops gets the job done... even on demo version! Boy, am I cheap... I get the $15 GE... I make my own animations... I make my own animations on PAINT!...and I make my music files on the demo version of Fruity Loops 5! But who can blame me? I'm still in high school... I don't have a job... I'm in Honors Chemistry and Algebra 2 and have a lot of homework. Oh well. Once I finish IST, I'll try and get a job at Best Buy.

Wow, I second that! Changing colors of a Text Actor really gives it an added flavor! Awesome, thanks!
