3DChat
What is it?
Instead of "sky box" local chat messages, the messages display as 3D chat bubbles above the player.
3DChat is designed to give local, visual, chat messages in a way that makes sense.
This WILL work with BigDaddy-Chat v1.13 and above.
The look of this is very much based on 3DME because I think that look is perfect for this sort of thing. This is a completely different script, the look is just based on it.
Key Features
- Local proximity messages show in 3D chat bubbles
- Longer messages show for longer times to allow for reading them
- If you enter two messages close together, the first will finish displaying before the second shows. More than two and they might show out of order. But trying to type three messages in 6 seconds or so it going to be pretty rare.
- If you are in a vehicle, the chat bubble offsets based on the seat your are in. This includes all vehicles, aircraft, motorcycles, etc.
- You can configure the base time for how long the bubbles display and the max length of the messages allowed.
- Works with BigDaddy-Chat
