Question about the PlayGui

by Jacob · in Torque Game Engine · 12/21/2004 (3:44 pm) · 6 replies

Does anyone know how to get rid of the overlay/box indicated by the arrow in the screen shot below?

I've looked at PlayGui, which is where it shows up and there doesn't seem to be anything that points to it. Thanks in advance!

If you want it away temporary then
Press F10 Choose MainChathud unmark visible on the outerchathud.
If you not want it at all you must edit client/ui/chathud.gui and set the visible parameter to 0 on the outerchathud.

Does that stop text appearing their too or just gets rid of the visible box?

Any child control of a parent that is set to "visible = 0" will also not be visible. So, if the text control is within that, it will be invisible too. Of course this will not stop the script from sending text there...:)

Ahh thanks.

It was just the way Billy's post read I thought maybe it only effected the box:

"....If you not want it at all you must edit client/ui/chathud.gui and set the visible parameter to 0 on the outerchathud...."

Cheers for the reply!
