Chat box position

Postby Vendor » Fri Dec 29, 2006 5:29 pm

Since the recent updates (which are generally great btw), the chat box on my install has been moved into a mid-low left-hand side area, rather than top left. As this is in the main gameplay area (rather than the "sky" area), it is hard to see chat incoming (and blindsides me on the left as well). How do I move it back to its previous position to cope with my ageing eyesight?

edit - maybe Support/Bugs forum is better? My bad.

You can disable the new chat area feature and go back to as it was before by setting con_chat 0.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

Thanks for that :thumbup: - I agree that many will prefer the new position, but it's nice for those that don't to be able to stay with the old setup too.
