Disable/Enable chatbox?

[idiot]

Hi,

I'm gonna edit a hydra video for two stunters. It will be filmed everything in the replay of the singleplayer. But we will record the final scene in MTA DM. Both pilots fly into a tunnel. One from the one entrance and the other from the the other one. In the middle they will have a crash. We just don't wanna have the chatbox in the frapsed clips. Sure I could zoom in or make a border which lies over the chatbox but we want this project in high resolutions.

The question is now: Could someone try to make a script which disables the chatbox per a button which is bound or something like that? It should be like press 'Ctrl' to disable/enable the chatbox. So they can disable the chatbox before they reach the tunnel.

I know its just another thread where I ask for something . But this would be really helpful for us and maybe for other people which plan to film something in MTA DM without the chatbox too.

No script needed. Just do something like this in the console:

  
bind m up showchat 
  

Key 'm' now toggles the chat on/off.

lol didn't know its a command ... ! Anyway thanks for helping me/us

it's always good to type help into the console to see all the hardcoded mta commands like /showchat and /shownametags and /hud

sometimes those function also disable the console so to see the chatbox again you have to rejoin the server =)
