This looks really really nice. Thanks for the upload.

 

[JamzeMcC]

Yes, thank you for sharing! Quick question. Can this be minimized and brought back up later on?

 

[Iomega0318]

Very nice, looks good too although the text off to the left bugs me lol

you should only have one global copy of the messages list, and ideally load and save it to disk as the wolrd itself loads and saves. Your solution is totally unscalable.


also, why are you creating and sorting an arraylist of netstates when updating the messages? can't you just foreach around the Instances property?

Pretty cool, gump needs a little work though

As for me GUMP is terrible.
In fact this kind of chat are not comfortable, because you can't send replyies by Enter key. So to improve this chat I thing a good idea to do next:

1) Write in the window speech from world (soo you can answer by pressing enter)
2) Make Chanels(filters) - world, party, guild, global(broadcast), private
3) Make color highlighting of messages - each person have own color or group (party, guild, you, pk, criminal and soo on)
4) Make some kind of integration with public chat or IM survices (for example IRC, Jabber, etc) so it will be global chat system which can be use in game, website, or some IM.

P.S. And what happend with standart chat in new clients?

I wrote this World Chat system a while ago, maybe it can be useful to you for upgrading this script!

its good but, It isnot what i mean.
I decided to write chat system myself) After that I show much more comfortable chat )

Finally someone is making a chat system for 2.0 final. Knives chat sure is a great script but due to the fact that it wasn't designed for final I always had problems with it. Can't wait to get your improved version.

I'm looking for a World Chat system for 2.1... doesnt seem to be one out there.. anybody modified one lately that I don't know about? We really need one for our shard bad.

 

[Pure Insanity]

Just use Knives Chat System, it works for basically all versions of runuo.

Converting scripts from RunUO 1.0 to 2.0 is fairly simple, there are a few guides out there on these forums that explain the main differences.

The commands system was changed dramatically between the two versions, here's what you can do:

Replace any traces of:
[syntax]using Server.Scripts.Commands;[/syntax]

With;
[syntax]using Server.Commands;[/syntax]

Also, any traces of;
[syntax]Commands.Register[/syntax]

With;
[syntax]CommandSystem.Register[/syntax]
