[REL]Top Chat Bar (Current Version: v1.4.1)

[xXMADEXx]

Information & Fetures:

Hi guys! Today i've made a top bar chat for the MTA community.

Please let me know what you think of this script, and rate it 5/5 on MTA community website! Community Link

The last message sent will have the darkest alpha, and every message lasts for 8 seconds. The maximum messages that it will show at a time is 5, and the lasting time + max messages are very easy to change. (can only be changed in the uncompiled code.)

Very nice!

[gokalpfirat]

Now nothing to add is needed Maybe you can make animations for rectangles.

Note: I dont know if its bug but you cant send the same message more than 1 time.

Eh animations are to difficult to do... And thats not a bug. It won't show the same message twice. I did it to prevent a bug that would have occurred.

Very nice!

Thanks
