in game chat

[WATER]

is it possible to ignore players on the in game chat, if not how do i turn it off

You can always highlight a name, and click it to mute someone. However, IIRC, you'll still mute half of the players in the server on a random basis(I don't believe this glitch has ever been fixed, but I could be wrong).

I don't know if you can "turn off" the in game chat, but there may be a "cl_" command you can enter in console to "not draw" the text on your screen.

hud_messages "0" i tried that and it recognizes the command but doesnt do anything, yea i generally have to mute people too works pretty good, just dont want to read annoying comments they type

I thought the FF mute function also muted text?

hud_messages controls the text in the center of your screen (The enemy has your flag!, prematch countdown, etc). You probably don't want to set it to zero.

are you talking about when i click their name in the score screen buckshot, ill try it that would be really nice.

haha squeek, thanks i tried it messing around on empty server and was like, didnt do anything....

Yes. I thought that there were two toggle modes, one to mute voice and one to mute text and voice. I think if you click it twice it should be text and voice? Not sure. One way to find out!

if you can make hud_messages go away does that mean theres a way to make them smaller? ive always thought they take up too much of my screen, but i still find them useful.
