GAME: No Man's Sky (version 4.65)
MOD: Hide Text Chat
AUTHOR: EsbeeSB
=================================
-----------
WHAT:
-----------
Hides the multiplayer text chat.
-----------
WHY:
-----------
This is my scorched-earth method to stop the constant Laylaps text chat spam in my offline game, but could be used by those wishing to opt out of text-specific chatting when online as well. Chats can still be read/sent if the button is pressed (<ENTER> by default), but new ones won't be automatically displayed.
-----------
INSTALL:
-----------
1. Delete the "__DISABLEMODS.TXT" file in "No Man's Sky\GAMEDATA\PCBANKS".
2. Create a "MODS" folder in "No Man's Sky\GAMEDATA\PCBANKS".
3. Extract "_MOD_SB_HideTextChat.pak" into the "MODS" folder.
This is safe to add/remove to an existing 4.65 save.
-----------
UNINSTALL:
-----------
Delete "_MOD_SB_HideTextChat.pak".
-----------
CONFLICTS:
-----------
Any mod that edits GCUIGLOBALS.GLOBAL.MBIN.
It can be easily incorporated by changing:
<Property name="TextChatMaxDisplayTime" value="0" />
<Property name="TextChatStayBigAfterTextInput" value="0" />
