Bubble Chat is now integrated into TextChatService!

If you haven’t gotten to it, you should probably add a couple of image entries for a speech bubble and speech tail (the / of the bubble) respectively. It would allow us to have more freedom to choose how the speech bubbles are rendered.

Also, I am not sure if anyone has been made aware of this, but doing /e dance and any other emote commands referring to the old emotes while using the new chat will not work in R6, and instead will say “You cannot use this emote.” Please make the old emotes work for the new chat, 'cause I am certain that many other people use these emote commands often, and not having them limits how players can express themselves in R6 games.

There’s no transparency property.

Could you please add one?

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Huge game changer for me love it Roblox W its gonna be so much easier to customize stuff to my desire. This seriously is really cool to me even tho it may seem minor to some people.

Glad to know I wasn’t the only one that noticed this, I really liked the new TextChatService but I had to remove it cause the BubbleChat for NPCS are very important!

#54

Really cool beta! It only needs a font changing property and npc compatibility.

I think this is intentional as Roblox is slowly trying to get rid of r6.

Hi, a Roblox Staff member has already been made aware of the R6 emotes not working bug. This post right here:

It seems to not have been fixed yet, but maybe soon.

#57

Nothing to say this is epic. I try it yesterday.

#58

Can the font, background color, text color etc. be modified on a per-player / per-message basis? Like if someone bought a VIP pass you could give their chat bubbles a golden gradient UIStroke border

#59

In other words, “we’re excited to announce that Bubble Chat can no longer be forked and modified by developers”? I hope this is not the case.

#60

Can players set text(chat) size?

Or some players need their own eyeglasses?

#61

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Waited a long time for this!

#62

Thanks for this! I wonder if its possible to give the user a choice for what their chat bubbles will look like.
