Fallback colors about vim-gruvbox8

[lifepillar]

Try :set t_Co= (no value) or :set t_Co=0.

Hello, thank you so much for your reply.

I have tried it but nothing changes.

I made sure that set termguicolors isn't active in my vimrc
and I also tried to start vim with "vim -c "set t_Co=" but the colors are all messed up
they are not like the ones you have attached in your readme repo

I have also tried to set my $TERM to vt100

I'm using Alacritty btw...

I really hope we can solve this problem.

Save this as min-vimrc.vim:

set nocompatible
set runtimepath+=<CHANGE TO PATH TO>/gruvbox8
set notermguicolors
set t_Co=
colorscheme gruvbox8

Run with vim --clean -u ./min-vimrc.vim. I get a black and white Vim in Alacritty.

Are you sure that you have set notermguicolors?

Are you sure that you have set notermguicolors?

…before loading the color scheme.

Hello, thank you so much for your help,

I have tried everything you said, yes the colors do get stripped but the outcome is nowhere near what you have on your B&W repo

I don't know why!

Do you mean, with the minimal vimrc above? Well, that's… minimal. You need to enable at least syntax highlighting. Try with this:

" Minimal vimrc
set nocompatible
set runtimepath+=<PATH TO>/gruvbox8
set notermguicolors
set t_Co=
syntax enable
filetype plugin indent on
set number relativenumber
set laststatus=2
set showtabline=2
set foldmethod=marker
set foldenable
colorscheme gruvbox8
