Customize the chat box

Original Discord Post by sacco_89595 | 2024-04-17 02:35:33

Hello,
I would like to customize the chat box that appears during gameplay in Unreal.
I would like to change the color of avatars and player names, and remove the boxes to make them look like subtitles in a game.

Yes, it is possible. You can check our appearances option. You can make UI adjustments through them.

Press F10, then there is a appearances settings.
You can adjust this.

Thank you for your response to this question.
I changed the chat box from the F10 button, but two boxes appear.
I want to:
・Have only one box
・Display the box at the bottom of the screen and make it a little smaller.

I recommend you to do research on Unreal Engine UI. This requires basic Unreal Engine knowledge.

Hi <@1170263861010628654>, this usually happens if you have two players in the level, double check that your player blueprint only spawns once and there is no other player blueprints in the level

I see, but when you play in the editor, do you a second way?

I also recommend using the Player Start instead of placing the player blueprint in the map as it reduces the chances of having duplicates
