LegacyChatReplacer - A simple, convenient TextChatService frontend for developers

LegacyChatReplacer is an open-source model I created to add some extra functionality which was missing from the Custom text chat UI .
The example listed in documentation is missing a lot of functionality, such as:

  • being able to whisper to other players
  • being able to mute other players
  • making team channels and whisper channels save in the TextBox
  • clearing the chat window of all messages
    and other basic features.
    A lot of other custom up-to-date TextChatService modules I’ve noticed are too difficult to modify, have too many features for what I have wanted from them, or are confusing to navigate in general.

LegacyChatReplacer aims to create a reference point for developers who have a basic understanding of how the TextChatService API works and want to save time reprogramming missing features back into a custom frontend. It also looks similar to the original Legacy Chat Service UI.
