Can you control the data feed on left corner of screen

Post by Alibaster »

In the bottom left corner of my screen it shows me chat conversations as well as other data like looting info, combat info, commands, etc. Is there a way to control what is displayed there? When fighting mobs, all conversations scroll by so fast i can't read them. I want to minimize the data I get here. Is that possible?

There's no server-side options to control that. There are some scripts out there (for easyuo, steam, possibly others) that read your journal and then output the filtered messages into a separate journal.
With the framework i'm making, server-side messages will be sent into separate "channels" and then you will be able to pick what gets displayed in the main journal, and also read the other non-displayed messages in a separate window (in the browser, aka Portal v2) but I don't know when that will be a possibility.

Thanks for the reply. I'm using Orion so maybe there are some filters through there I can use. Time to do some Googling to see. :D

A bit late to the party, but, something like this, perhaps?

Do ignore the funky UI, just got the media player working but no styling yet.
Filters out mos, but not all junk. UO isn't very generous with the amount of metadata it provides on journal entries.
