Lips106 Posted August 22, 2004 Posted August 22, 2004 I think you should be to clear the history of the console via the MTA client because what I always find is that after there has been a lot typed, the game starts to crash more often. I end up having to disconnect and reconnect every hour, just to clear the console. So, I am suggesting that there be a button that you can press on the MTA client, that clears the chat history; which may even cut down on crashing Thanks for reading, Lips Lips106:::...
Black Dragon Posted August 22, 2004 Posted August 22, 2004 and a lot of times im on a server and something very interesting shows up and im like 'oh i MUST quote that' and continue playing and forget all about it, and remember about it after i already disconnected and closed the client. suggestion - log files. *.txt log files would solve both problems easily.

Dgtadude Posted August 23, 2004 Posted August 23, 2004 Log the chat history , AND clear the chat history on client everey like 4 minutes .. so it saves to the log and clears it on the client Steam ID: Linkage CSS/HL2DM XBL TAG: Linkage155 (please identify yourself) -=- Member of the GTA Hoodz Team -=- Member of TmM -=- Member of the U.C.F Team -=- (last updated like 2 years ago, links don''t work anymore, but I''ll keep it original)
Ransom Posted August 23, 2004 Posted August 23, 2004 hmm yea clearing text and allowing the option of log save would be very nice. Good idea. I don't know how many times I would have someone pm me their msnm or aim names to join VCP and I'd just exit the client as soon as I got out of game from habit, then going back in praying that the newfound talent was still there so I can tell them my stupid mistake and have them resend a message...

Slothman Posted August 23, 2004 Posted August 23, 2004 heh, next thing you know people will compete to have the largest log file.... unless theres a way to eliminate the older chat when the new chat is brought in, so the file doesnt grow to a gig Check out my recent work: ZDay - a zombie script Slothbot - an AI deathmatch bot my community profile (all my resources)
Posty Posted August 23, 2004 Posted August 23, 2004 I would like the idea for a /clear to get rid of all the junk chat in the client. Wouldn't be too hard to implement, would it?
darkdreamingdan Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 heh, next thing you know people will compete to have the largest log file....unless theres a way to eliminate the older chat when the new chat is brought in, so the file doesnt grow to a gig on the msg+ log files, they r managed by months, and txt files for every time u talk, eg: c:\program files\multi theft auto\logs\August 2004\28th PartyServer GTA3 or in other words... directory\[MONTH] [YEAR]\[DAY] [sERVER NAME] VCP FOREVER!
orappa Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 And possibly an option to delete logs that are x months old or more, so that you don't get millions. MTA:SA FAQ - Read this before asking questions. MTA:SA Troubleshooting - Read this first if you have problems.
