Title: see chat above char
Post by: Darkestdragon on April 09, 2004, 06:13:59 am

I would like to see my public chat above my character. In most other mmorpg games i have played, when there are a lot of players you cant read the chat fast enough because their is so many people chatting at the same time. this is useful when having a conversation most times. 8)

1. Wishlist!!
2. You\'ll have many chat tabs, but the shout one might still get clogged - just use others.

no, no, lynx ...he\'s talking about having text-bubbles above characters, when they say something to the public.

Yes, he\'s *wishing* for it.

Anyway, the last time I checked, only name+guild will be displayed over one\'s char.

Darkestdragon: if you\'re not used to lynx\' hints - he wants you to post your wish on the \"Wish list\" (sub)forum

...this (sub)forum is here for commenting the current CVS version of planeshift

...not a bad idea, but i think it\'ll REALLY needs some talking over

I agree that this would be a good option.  (Keyword: option).

Perhaps some kind-hearted dev will take this task on and implement it for you.

I think it\'s good to see dialogue above characters, it looks better than the chat window - you actually see who\'s talking and where (s)he is. It should be visible from which direction the voice is coming. It\'s more realistic and easier to talk, especially when there are many people around.

Yes I have wanted the same thing, I just never wrote it down. I can wait for CB though...you dont have to implement it in MB. But I would really like that, just a small text box above people\'s heads when they are talking. It would make things alot easier.
