Update! Got sick of this INANE api and built my own. Works better than the original and with multiple instances. No weird hacks required.

Everything we've discussed resulted in the following function. It works but only once XD. There was something missing in the function

const string TIMER_DIALOG_PATH = "UIContainer\\ConsoleUIContainer\\TriggerWindowPanel\\TimerWindowTemplate";
const string TIMER_DIALOG_ANIMATION = "HighlightStop";
const int TIMER_DIALOG_CONTROL_TYPE = c_triggerControlTypePanel;

    string auto2D681054_val;
    playergroup group = PlayerGroupAll();
    int window;

    // Variable Declarations
    string lv_image;

    // Variable Initialization

    // Implementation
    window = TimerWindowCreate(lp_timer, lp_title, lp_visible, lp_elapsed);
    TimerWindowShowBorder(window, true);
    TimerWindowSetImageType(window, c_timerWindowImageBackground, c_triggerImageTypeNineSlice);

We used to have skins like this:

Once you add the LOTV campaign dependency, the skin turns into this:

I tried using Galaxy native calls to darken the text. Nothing I tried worked.

Used TimerWindowSetColor. Any suggestions?
