Dark Bubble Chat Scripting

You’re going to need to override the default bubble script with a new script. First, you’ll need to get a copy of the bubble chat first.

Start a new place and then click “Play”

Go to the explorer, you’ll see a few new scripts pop up under StarterPlayerScripts. The only script we’re interested in in BubbleChat.

Right click this, copy it, and then stop the play session.

Now paste this script to StarterPlayerScripts. Any modifications you make to this script will now take effect on the bubble chat.

… Now try make the modifications yourself and we’ll help you when you get stuck.

I was messing with it but only tap / to chat and boxes around it affects it

Very similar to what XAXA said. You’re going to need to modify the BubbleChat Local Script which is located in the Chat Service. You’re going to want to modify 3 functions inside of the script. Of which are named. “createChatBubbleMain”, “createChatBubbleTail” and “CreateBubbleText”
Insert whatever color3 values fill your needs into the functions.

You only want the things inside the folder so move “ChatModules”, “ClientChatModules” etc into game.Chat

You have to move all the contents of the folder into chat. Chat does not work with studio, you need to publish the place to Roblox, then play your game from the website.

Once you’ve moved everything in the folder into Chat and published your game to Roblox and played your game from the website, you should see your chat bubbles like this

Just a heads up, but you don’t actually need to publish the place to make the bubble chat work. Just insert a LocalScript into StarterPlayerScripts with this as its only source:

local Chat = game:GetService("Chat")
local function setUpChatWindow()
    return { BubbleChatEnabled = true }
end
Chat:RegisterChatCallback(Enum.ChatCallbackType.OnCreatingChatWindow, setUpChatWindow)

This will enable bubble chat, even in play solo on a new, unpublished place.
