read something about these aaaggess ago and i've forgotten now.

My crafted weapon says "can be dyed by a weapon luster", what is a weapon luster? its not the normal dyes from the merchnats, is it the expensive dye's from caer sidi or tuscan glacier etc?

Crafted weapons can be coloured by using the lusters that Alchemists can craft.

TOA and Sidi weapons can be dyed with TOA or Sidi drop enamel, excluding artifact weapons..;(.

With DR you can buy weapon dyes for 125g each from a merchant in Kings room, higher CL you are the more choice of colours.. works on all weapon types afaik, artis, CL weapons etc etc.

Yep all weapons can be coloured using CL/DR Dye from the DR merchant in the instance zone of each realm.

Tis good for changing the colour of a weapon if u have it on ur back. My druid is Orange and green and has a green mace on his back. The colours are fairly limited tbh tho they are all v bright... The dye's are actually called barnishes btw. tehre a good link for the colours here

Pure White

Talking of colours, isn't it very hard to get pure white (armour / weaps) ? Something about screwing the polygons up ? Is this a deficiency in the coding ?

Deficiency in the coding. The DAOC engine has never been capable of pure white colours, at best a very pasty grey is all you get.

I had white weapons after a crash when some files were damaged, maybe the texture files.

dyes are coded as different coloured lights applied to the textures.

The texture itself is not white to begin with therefore you cannot make it white by applying a colour to it.

The closest to white is "undyed"
(incidentally if you wear stygia armour it's white in some parts, so its possible just that unless they create a default white texture for some platemail for example you won't be able to have it white)
