I'm a bit disappointed

Postby danfPeter » Sat Jan 27, 2007 12:28 am

Hi, I played Nex for a while now. From Version 1 to 1.5. I have paused for a while. Now I downloaded to new Version and played for about 15 min but this new chat, was really annoying!
And someone pasted all the time his play list from his music player. As if someone would like to know it. This made me sick. I was so annoyed that I didn't tried to search a button to deactivate the chat. Just quit the game.
Some would say I had a bad game where I lost to often and was angry. But this is only partially true, because I know I'm a weak player and I don't give anything about it. I can loose and can be happy with that.
Whatever! I'm some kind of annoyed.

OK Cheers

Well at least i will give you some info then :). You can disable the chat area with the command con_chat 0 in the ingame console which you can open with shift-escape (or when in a game its easier to use ` thats the button left of 1). The default setting of con_chat is 5, so con_chat 5 will make it show up again. The current setting and default is displayed if you just enter con_chat.

And yeah you do not want a response but everyone has bad days now and then :)

Oh.. and WELCOME to the forum!

Ah schön,

maybe I add also a question to this thread. How can I set this chat to the top again. As I'm used to it... You know I'm a old man and have problems with changes like David Bowie. ;-)

Esteel you maybe know me. You fragged me many times. But I can't remember my nick names.

OK thanks so far. By the way did I mention that I'm a bit drunk? Maybe you read that between the lines.

Oh thats useful. If you disable the chat area with con_chat 0 the chat will appear in the top area again. So you can't really disable the chat totaly unless you also disable that upper info area (con_notify 0/4) but there is no useful stuff in that toparea (unless stuff you pickup is interesting) and the chat area is much closer to the hud were you eyes look more often but your mileage may vary.

Uhm right now its too late for riddles, maybe i'll think about it tomorrow ;)

Thanks that is all I need to know. And thanks for the fast reply. The thread can be closed that I won't write more things that will compromise my integrity. höhö

Good night

BTW, who was the one who chat spammed? XENO THE BLIND is a great chat spammer (well, he's having fun with it... but let him), but on my server he hasn't spammed his play list yet.
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.

Its very unusual here to close threads.. If someone wants to add more to some thread he is free to do so. Only some 'special' (mosty in a bad sense) threads get closed.

Hehe yeah Xeno can be a little spammer now and then but never in a bad way. His flags and funny stuff is just that.. funny. but i have not yet seen anyone spam his playlist or similar and i think it would require a bit of work to do this for real.

Well, he did spam in a bad way - but stopped doing that. Now it's just fun... the disco light messages :)

lol i only get 5 lines.

I know two people having a playlist bind, and that is just one or one and a half line.

btw the disco bind is nice.
