Roleplay help
« on: October 02, 2006, 02:54:12 am »
After playing for two days, I totally agree that the RP community is fantastic. There are only a few problems that I need help with.
- When people RP with me, things in the chat menu come up like this sometimes:
Gerath smiles "Have a good one!"
-Some people RP in blue, is there a color command like there is in CoD?

Answers(or links to answers) would be appretiated.

Thanks! :sweatdrop:

You can type actions using the /me command. So for example if you type /me looks around for a seat you and others will see it as though your character is the one doing the action.

[edit] You can also use the command /my for more possessive sentences. [/edit]

The different text colors happen for various reasons - when someone mentions your character's name, their text turns a different color. /tells are another color as well, as are guildchats and groupchats, etc. You can check your in-game Options to change any of these more to your liking.

Ohhh! The /me command! I was under the impression that you use that to do what everyone else is doing! It all makes sense now! :P

Thanks alott!

/my hasn't always been there, but it's a lot better than typing "/me 's waffle jumps in his mouth"

Can you give me an example of what the text looks like?

because I know that /ME just says your name, what does my do?

your name with a " 's " added to the end of it.
