How do you put images in the chat?

I'm no scripter, but I'm guessing what Destiny's asking for is a modified chat so s/he can have tags in his/her server.

Shadow, if you don't have any help, then DON'T POST. His post was pretty clear.

Destiny, does anything show up if you trace() a message with an image, such as a death message?

Isn't it something like <bitmap:add-ons/directory/filename.png> ?

Try asking NiXXiL, he does this on his servers.

Another person who can do it and quite a few other things in chat is Slicksilver555.

As far as I can tell the only thing Slicksilver managed to accomplish on his server was to remove the ML tag filter and change everyone's font colors. Nice work!

As for the <bitmap: ml tag, you don't need to include the file extension because torque will automatically detect that.

Breaking <filter> is all fun and games until someone spams gigantic pink text.

Ephi, I wanted to change everyones colors, and i do have a filter, Just not on. Anyway, If you really want to send a message in chat and your host, type in console:
Code: [Select]
messageAll(' ',"<Bitmap:Base/(look in base folder for pictures and complete the path)>");Plus, NiXiLL removed all the filters too. And as they said, Chat filters out bitmaps, So the only way would be to mod your chat like NiXiLL, Clockturn and I did.

You don't need to mod the messageSent to be able to put a bitmap in the chat using the messageall function.
