Nothing is appearing in the output.
That’s the only thing appearing in the logs, I cannot get it to work.
hello i’m having some problem while using BetterChat.
I followed steps to install BetterChat, but I still have errors and bugs.
First, when I try to type in chat, it’s say i’m muted. No command works.
Also, I have several errors, here:
[03:48]
03:19:37.784 ChatScript is not a valid member of PlayerScripts "Players.Certurix.PlayerScripts" - Client - ReloadChat:7

I’m worried to use this because of exploiters.
Can you elaborate on this? It does have checks for exploiters, but every chat system is susceptible to basic exploiting like sending messages.
Never mind I’m stupid. Some custom chats use custom remote events so you exploiters can easily fire them changing the variables which allows them to make it seem like someone is saying what they are not actually saying.
Can someone please fix this or take a look at my game. I love the module but extremely not reliable for big servers.
what is your game? i would like to test it out
Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t and since I have goals for advertisements I know random players who would join would leave again since they can’t chat.
Looks amazing, although for some people would prefer light mode.
The older version is getting buggy and I’m going to be doing my 3rd rewrite for fixing the bugs that I can and addressing new features.
Preview:
User-thumbnails?
I also fully intend on utilizing localization in this version.

I’m interested in using this but I can’t put it in my game easily because you didn’t provided a Rojo project source,
can you put one on github?
I think I might wait until the next version because I have reason to believe this one has some lag but no clue where it’s coming from
A GitHub release isn’t required as you can easily get the loader model from the Roblox site.

Even introducing, custom display names for developers! Roleplay usernames can be as easy as:

Now supports:
- Disabling the chat window
- Autofilling API (cant showcase yet because im bad at getting screenshots lol)
- Past message editing (toggleable via settings)
- Viewport frame user icons (so it can live update if you use :ApplyDescription, and be helpful in identifying users in roleplay games) (still havent mastered viewport frame math yet so any feedback / help would be appreciated)
Config currently looks like this: (havent commented every feature yet)
return {
UI = {
ChatSizes = {
Phone = UDim2.new(0.5,0,0.5,24); --> Chat size on phone
Tablet = UDim2.new(0.4,0,0.3,24); --> Chat size on tablet
Desktop = UDim2.new(0.3,0,0.25,24); --> Chat size on desktop
},
Fonts = {
Chatbar = Enum.Font.Gotham, --> Chatbar font
TextFont = Enum.Font.GothamSemibold --> Every other text's font in the chat
},
ChatWindowVisible = false,
Resizable = true, --> Can the user resize their chat?
Rounding = 8 --> UI roundness in px
},
User = {
NameColors = { --> Default name colors
Color3.fromRGB(253,41,67), --> Red
Color3.fromRGB(1,162,255), --> Blue
Color3.fromRGB(1,236,111), --> Green
Color3.fromRGB(174,81,202), --> Purple
Color3.fromRGB(255,154,76), --> Orange
Color3.fromRGB(255,211,50), --> Yellow
Color3.fromRGB(255,205,221), --> Pink
Color3.fromRGB(255,234,183) --> Beige
},
ChangeDisplayNameColorWhenAttributeChanged = true
},
DisplayNames = {
Enabled = true,
UseItalics = false
},
Teams = {
TeamColorPriority = true
},
Messages = {
IncludeIcon = false,
UseViewportForIcon = true,
MaximumLength = 200,
DisallowedWhitespace = {"\n","\r","\t","\v","\f"},
ChannelMessageLimit = 15,
Editable = false, -->
Cooldown = { --> This is the chat's antispam system.
ExpireTimePeriod = 15, --> Maximum message cooldown length
NumberMessageAllowed = 7 --> (7) Maximum messages allowed in a pre-defined time period
}
}
}
Any feedback for this? Permissions etc are yet to be implemented.
I’ll also be releasing the game for testing in a few days hopefully.

I feel that it should not be required to disable the default chat for this chat system to work. Keeping at least the default send/receive message system could have made this chat system compatible with most of the custom admin systems and other models that use player.Chatted.
