Fantastic work, any chance this could get custom emoji support?

I think a second fork of UTChat was created, to remove emoticon support completely.
FragChat is basically UTChat only with a few other UI elements.

*edit.
Seems also the options that UTChat offer to clients, got moved to serversided on FragChat.

You're right. We have removed emoticons. I don't want to see them. It turns the game into a clownery. This is purely my opinion and my view of the game.
Yes, all settings are now on the server side. We also removed some options that I considered unnecessary.
Here is the main difference from UTChat:
Features:
- open links in chat windows
- save the chat log
- player list in chat window
- reply to the player by double-clicking on his name
- custom game messages

No objection from me there, and completely agree.
Emoticons is for discord, not for games
But people want them, so it's get made somewhere.

And now we got 3 forks, also with chatdiamond

Thank you for the mutator, it has become essential for my servers.

One issue I'd like to report is the blue team color blending with everything on every map, it is very hard to read:


I'm not sure if it's my monitor, but I can hardly read the blue players. I can read the light turquoise weapon messages, but I cant see the players next to them. The regular deep blue color is darker in general, so it should be a little more lighter, it needs more white in it.

we did not change the color, this is the color of the UT chat. This needs to be fixed in a patch.

There is a major bug with FragChat, where F3 does not work on mods like Siege. F3 shows important stats info for Siege, here is how it should look like without FragChat:



If FragChat is used with Siege, pressing F3 does nothing and the stats don't show. Please someone fix this, I love FragChat and I really want to keep on using it for our PUG servers. I have attached a Siege mod for reproduction of the problem, start Siege as a GameType and load FragChat with it to see the issue with F3 not showing.

There's also missing clientside settings for font sizes..
We are stuck with small fonts. Something that UTChat does allow.

@berserker have you tested with UTChat

send your F3 in user.ini

[ProAsm]

FragChat or UTChat in no way interferes or intercepts the F3 functions.
As asosed says, check your local User.ini for F3=
Mine is as follows:
F3=ShowObjectives|Mutate SmartSB Showstats|SiegeStats

Here is my ini bind:
F3=SiegeStats

As I have mentioned in my previous post, it doesn't work if FragChat is paired with SiegeIV. Could you guys reproduce this to confirm? I have sent the Siege mod we are using in my previous post, here is a video on how to reproduce it:



Tested on 469c. This is a clean comparison to confirm the issue exists, first example is without FragChat and you can see F3 stats work as intended, second example is with FragChat where F3 stats doesn't show. I have also used FragChat on my regular pug server and my friend also pointed out to me that he can't use F3 as well, if FragChat is used.
