Overlay text bar, text color

[mefistocelus]

Hello,

Since the last update the text of the message seems to be yellow color on a white background. (before it was black color)

Is there any way to change this?

Thanks,

Your image doesn't do much to help your case.

Anyway... have you even THOUGHT about changing the colors in the plugin settings? I mean, really, this should be the very first place you look to.

im not stupid... next time read the whole post before answhering please.
and the screenshot is just to make clear what im talking about, and as we can already see. you didnt know about what i was talking.

cant find it anywhere at the settings of the Overlay Pluggin

im looking for the colors of the CHAT TEXT overlay!
not of the overlay wich shows you who are in the channel/talking in the channel.

I was having the same problem, and decided to reinstall the plugin, and now it doesn't work at all

I am also having issues with the message bars coming across the top of the screen, but being blank. just like the screen cap in depil's post above. i have looked for a text color to change, but yet i don't see that option in the overlay settings. now i do however see that when someone changes channels or leaves the message pops up and i can see it.

thanks for listening

[depil]

same, if someyone changes channel i do see it.
but when there is a chat conversation i dont see it.

anyone with a solution already?? would be verry helpfull!!

[depil]

still noyone with an idea to fix it?

You can change the color under the plugin settings.
Open the TS3 client and go into Settings > Plugins > DirectX overlay plugin > Now select Colors

[depil]

made them all black.
nothing to the chat overlay changed

This is still on developers todo, to add the chat text on the top of the screen.
This feature will be added in the next release.


A workaround (no guaranteethat it works):
Jump into your appdata folder "C:\Users\yourusernamehere\AppData\Roaming\ts3overlay" and open the config_user.ini

Add these lines on the top (when no [default] entry exists in your file)

[default]
overlay.display.backgroundcolor 80000000

[depil]

this is what orignal was standing in the file under [default]
if i made a new part with [default] it messed up all of the overlay so i changed in the text under here.

[default]
overlay.initialization.xpos=1035
overlay.display.fontfile=dejavusans.ttf
overlay.logo.xpos=0
overlay.display.fontcolor.muted=FFFE0202
overlay.popup.show_server_messages=false
overlay.display.fontcolor.talking=FF28D11C
overlay.popup.fontsize=9
overlay.display.fontsize=9
overlay.display.backgroundcolor=FF000000
overlay.display.titlebar.opacity=80
overlay.initialization.ypos=210
overlay.initialization.mode=normal
overlay.logo.ypos=0
overlay.logo.alpha.min=0
overlay.logo.alpha.max=0
overlay.display.window.opacity=15
overlay.initialization.height=230
overlay.display.scrollbar.opacity=0
overlay.popup.show_chat_messages=true
overlay.popup.show_channel_messages=true
overlay.display.fontcolor.whispering=FF2EE8F8
overlay.display.fontcolor.channel=FF000000
overlay.display.fontcolor.dragging=FF000000
overlay.display.fontcolor.silent=FF968A00

i changed the "overlay.display.backgroundcolor=FF000000" part with FFFE0202. (wich is red so im sure i can see differents) but i couldnt see anychanges
the background and text font where still white. i reloaded both TS as WoW.


anyother ideas i can possibly change???
by the way Dante, thanks alot for helping me out. I really appreciate

[dante696]

As said i don't know if this will work. I go this from the developer and he toled me he will include this as an option soon.

hello not much English and so I am using a translator ... my problem is that since the upgrade to 3.0.3 ts and could not read what they write in the chat when I'm playing mohaa ts v.1.1 to go into detail bar appears white in the game but the point is transformed black to white in a second and I can not read what they wrote ... I would like to know I can do to fix this problem thanks for your time ... they also change the color to everything I saw but still the same.

Ah I was having that issue with the 3.0.3 update as I am not sure if its the background color or not its more of a color selection that needs to be added for notifications. Like if you in game and hit the scroll lock key then right click on the TS overlay and select configure you can change the colors you will see Display notifications which is where I think a color selection option needs to be added.

I think this is what your looking for to be added in the actual user interface instead of just being hidden in the config file >>
overlay.popup.fontcolor = FF000000 thats for the pop bar at the top like when you get messages from someone or letting you know who joined the server while in game :P

Hi , actually that was not the color issue i was referring too as I added info in that thread for that about the bar its the >> overlay.popup.fontcolor = FF000000 thats not there on screen for you to change but you can do it in the config file where you said it was located.

The other issue I am having is while in a game you see your overlay on the screen. Ok say there are 4 people in your room and the silent color is green and the talk color is red. Since the last 2 updates when anyone goes to talk it doesn't change color on screen to show who is talking in the channel.
