so, i’m trying to edit roblox’s chat GUI to look a bit different. i remembered in order to get access to the scripts to edit, you have to run the game in studio and copy the scripts in the chat service. i did that, stopped running the game, and i pasted the scripts back into chat service. when i made a simple change to one of them (changing bubblechat script’s font from arial to arcade) and ran the game, i saw no difference. i had the chat service’s “BubbleChatEnabled” and “LoadDefaultChat” checked. when i unchecked BubbleChatEnabled, i saw no bubble chat at all. even playing the game outside of studio gives no bubble chat. turning off LoadDefaultChat just makes the chat UI disappear entirely.
i checked, and, i DID type the font enum correctly (Enum.Font.Arcade). so, i’m not sure what’s causing this.
any help?
Well yeah, setting BubbleChat to false (uncheck) will obviously remove it, other than that I’m not sure, you made it sound like setting bubblechatenabled to false is still meant to show it, anyways just wanted to point it
because that’s how it was in an older version of the chat script. i have a place with an older modified version of it, and to get it to show you have to disable BubbleChat, otherwise it’ll load the default bubble text.
Oh that’s why, that won’t work as there is no value to even toggle it since its literally outdated at this point. It only has values for the new chat, eg: BubbleChatEnabled will only work for new and not the older chat model
so, if that’s the case, i’m not sure why when i toggle BubbleChatEnabled to true none of my changes show up, since currently i’m using the most updated version of the chat scripts.
I think what you could do is remove the default chat completely and replace with a custom one (this involves rescripting the entire thing) but I don’t think thats the answer you want and its probably a very painful one too.
haha, yeah, that’s not really the solution i want since i just want to make edits to the default chat. but if i can’t figure something out i might just have to dig for an untouched older version of the roblox chat scripts
You could also edit the chat gui using a local script and like editing it with it but your gonna find out how the gui works and stuff.
