About Old School Chat

This addon restores the chat window behavior prior to WoW 3.3.5, based on the code in this thread at the wowace.com forums. Credit goes to the posters in that thread, particularly Phanx and Sylvanaar.

For details, see the comment blocks in the Lua file.

Keep an eye on the Known Bugs / Caveats for the file releases.

This is only a TOC bump with some trivial cleanups, no new changes until the rest of the UI world settles down.

    Any way to not only remove the button but also remove that "ghost2 blank space that snapps to the edge preventing the chat from being placed snugg to the edge of the screen?

    I'm using CTMod Core to remove chat buttons and snap the frame to the edge. Works great

    is there a fix out yet for the up/down scroll buttons
  • #10
    Other things kept taking up my time, sorry. I've uploaded release 2, which "fixes" the scroll buttons (took out the broken code that was trying to hide the black background of the buttons). I'll have to revisit the background at some future point.

    It will take some hours for the upload to appear as available.

    RE up/down scroll buttons: known bug, working on it

    RE whispers being "sticky": it's debatable whether this addon should be changing that or not. For now it isn't, but I might do that if it turns out to be needed. You can use another addon (Persistence of Chattiness is one) to make that change.

    not sure about the same chat when i hit enter yet but the up and down arrow button's in game won't scroll up or down in chat you have to use the page up and down button's to scroll the chat i want this fix and i'm sure so will everyone else too i hate this new blizz chat i like the fact about the real id but to change the chat tho messed it up big time.

    This is useless...there's an option IN GAME to change it to the older version -_-
  • #5
    No there isn't. The in game option only changes the way the Inbox behaves.

    And the up and down arrow buttons dont work on the chat window

    IT still has a few issues, one is when i press enter, it goes to the last wisper or trade chat if i was talking there last. This is the main problem I have with the new chat, so if you could fix this, that would be great. You can email me at dkhuizenga@gmail.com
