It's a great addon, but it's really, but really buggy.

Lettuce9018 15 Nov, 2023 @ 6:26pm

this still works, but appears to be serverside

This doesn't exclude private messages.

роблокс 12 Oct, 2021 @ 4:23am

is this addon client side or does it need to be installed on the Server to?

this is really cool addon ! but i have question about coding. i found "%w+%:" in your code. i know what %w meaning but what mean %: in lua? i searched it from Lua wiki but no result .

Waving dots don't dissapear after writing message

Hi, very neat addon. However it very often creates script errors in TTT. Error:

[ERROR] lua/overheadchat/overheadchat.lua:127: bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil)
1. pairs - [C]:-1
2. func - lua/overheadchat/overheadchat.lua:127
3. unknown - lua/includes/extensions/net.lua:32

Could you check if the table is nil and mb just return if it is? I havent seen your code, but I image this approach should fix it.

This is cool and gives Runescape vibes but...

When will you fix it?

RIP.

sick lucky 26 Oct, 2015 @ 7:28am

Percy 19 Aug, 2015 @ 11:49am

There's a glitch and I physically can't unsubscribe. What the fuck is happening?

RubinIn 20 Mar, 2015 @ 12:31am

useful tool for any lua author (this is the errors caused by your addon for past week)

Lenny. [author] 30 Oct, 2014 @ 11:45am

tbh I have no idea, probably

[π] AnaxMinos 30 Oct, 2014 @ 6:10am

is this currently working?

Λrrick 1 Oct, 2014 @ 8:29pm

if only it showed what they were typing before they hit enter like it does on metaconstruct

sick lucky 13 Sep, 2014 @ 8:30am

its ok :)

Lenny. [author] 12 Sep, 2014 @ 1:08pm

I need to fix this sometime, left the broken after a while, I'm really sorry

D153453D 12 Sep, 2014 @ 11:53am

Love it! makes things easier to administrate sandbox servers <_<
Altough the addon broke when we used ULX private messages or admin messages (aka any chat message that dosnt show up to everyone?)
I am sad now

sick lucky 23 Mar, 2014 @ 8:56am

I got this lua error.

[ERROR] lua/overheadchat/overheadchat.lua:127: bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil)
1. pairs - [C]:-1
2. func - lua/overheadchat/overheadchat.lua:127

And when i joined this happened.

Ah, man. This brings back alot of memories. The whole Evolution Of Combat thing ruined it for me. Thanks for this!

bappi 14 Feb, 2014 @ 7:53pm

How would one make it so that your chat hook is run before the chat tags?

Lenny. [author] 14 Feb, 2014 @ 5:18am

@MagnifiCaden
No, you just add it to your server

@{UPR} Princess Celestia
As long as my ChatText hook runs before yours, it should work.
If you supress the ChatText hook (making it return true) before my hook runs it will not work.

professor massive 14 Feb, 2014 @ 5:13am

If you were to use this as an addon on your server, would you need to put it on FastDL?

{UPR} Princess Celestia 14 Feb, 2014 @ 2:41am

I use custom chat tags (adding tags before the name) and custom chat filter (to censor bad words), both made by me. I will try it without them and see if it helps.

Lenny. [author] 13 Feb, 2014 @ 10:43am

@{UPR} Princess Celestia
Do you use any addon that interferes with the chat? Such as a different chatbox?

{UPR} Princess Celestia 13 Feb, 2014 @ 8:35am

Tried to install this on my server, but players can only see the three dots during typing, not the messages themselves for some reason.

daniel 12 Feb, 2014 @ 2:17pm

oohh boy i remenber those days like "a q p"

daniel 12 Feb, 2014 @ 2:16pm

lol runescape font

Lenny. [author] 12 Feb, 2014 @ 2:13pm

@AmericanFatty
How long does what stay?
You can configure how long the text stays visible with these convars:
overHeadChat_fadeStart
overHeadChat_fadeOut

The typing dots stay as long as the player is typing.
