Another 1.5.2 Question

by Chris Sargent · in Torque Game Engine · 05/30/2009 (11:35 am) · 5 replies

When I run my barebones mission from the start.fps I have in the upper left a box that says welcome to the torque demo app: fresh meat.

I noticed that if I open the GUI editor this box goes away and returns when I exit the editor. So I am assumming that this is put on the screen by one of the half dozen scripts I have in my directory. I would like to remove this from my screen, but as of yet, been unable to locate what is creating this box/message.

Just a point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!

thanks,

Check common/server/clientconnection.cs, at line 85 (somewhere around there). You should be able to knock out this message from there.

If you want to remove the message window completely, delete starter.fps/client/scripts/chathud.cs (and the .dso that goes with it).

Hope I helped,
Bryce

Thanks. I did not look at client connection.cs in fact it never would have occured to me to look there.

I did look at the chathud.cs file, but I thought that was dealing with the chat system for players?

Thanks for the point in the right direction!

So trying to tie all this together then for the chathud I would assume that under starter.fps-client-ui-chathud.gui is what actually creates this box in the upper left corner at 0,0?

If this is the case, then why is this box not editable in the gui editor, since the file is a gui file?

in playgui.cs is were the box is created in the onWake function.. and the chat hud should be in the gui list in the editor but you have to look and see what its name is
