I know changing the color of it IS possible, but how do I change the transparency?

#2

Fork the chat gui. Makes it pretty easy.

The “background” is called ChatChannelParentFrame

Consider checking out methods.CreateGuiObjects of Chat.ChatScript.ChatBar and methods.FadeInBackground of Chat.ChatScript.ChatWindow

self.AnimParams.Background_TargetTransparency = Custom_Transparency

I’ve done that but will the scripts for the chat work still?

Yeah they work fine. No issues on my end.

It just overlays the chat gui that goes into the player when you play.

#7

Actually, what do you mean by fork?
I just copied it from the player.

Create a Play session and on the client go to the “Chat” service and copy everything under it, then stop your play session, then paste it into the Chat service. Now you can edit the Chat scripts to be how you see fit.
