Change Log

8/6/2024 - v1.2.8

• We tested the snot out of this one and bugs are squashed, names are showing, commands are working, formats are correct.

8/4/2024 - v1.2.7

• Totally rebuilt the integration between the cfx default chat and this custom chat. Rebuilt events and functions on both sides.
• Added a new function on the custom chat for single messages that come from applications like Sonoran. Previously was not available.

8/2/2024 - v1.2.6

• Finally fixed the event timing for the few that were experiencing strange behavior with chat commands
• System messages (unless they use the "print" function of the chat) should be formatted now

7/31/2024 - v1.2.4

• Fixed when a script uses the deprecated message function inside the default chat, it wasn't getting formatted like all the other messages
• Added an option to manually enter a character's name using /chatname which will override all other names used. This can be turned off in the config.

7/25/2024  - v1.2.1 (includes a settings.ini update)

• Added option for framework integration for character names.
• Added a check for null values to stop a very rare issue from happening
• Updated export to include new name functionality - your code that uses this export will need to be updated to the new format

11/13/2023 - v1.13

• Added config option for using the 3DChat resource

9/9/2023 - v1.12

• Fixes the {1} bug that sometimes showed for some messages (usually system messages)
• Adds new export so other scripts can utilize the themed messages

5/26/2023 v1.11

• added /clearchat command to, well, clear the chat on your client
• also handled some other generic print messages that were coming through unformatted/unstyled

5/23/2023 v1.1

• For those having double event fired issues where the chat showed twice, we put a catch so it would not happen in this script. This was not an error in the script, but on the server, and this is just a catch to keep it from happening within this script.
• Cleaned up the base chat folder and updated the manifest to remove commented out code that didn't need to be there anymore.
