pChat was not created to work properly with the gamepad input mode! It may work if you play in gamepad input mode but using the keyboard chat mode (ingame settings), but please do not report any bugs if you use the gamepad input mode! Switch to keyboard input mode instead if you want to use pChat.

Addons description

Features

Character/Account names : Because in your guild chat you won't see @JohnTheRipper but Bugnark gro-Moshul, pChat replace account names with Character Names. Customizable by guild, groupe, normal chat. PlayerName@AcountName and @AccountName/Playername available too.
Copy Text : You want to copy your chat ? Right click a chat message to put it to the chat editbox, and Ctrl+C to copy it to your clipboard then. Or open the copy dialog where you ca filter by chat channel and categories.
Search copy Text : You want to search your chat history and current chat? Open the copy dialog and click on the search button to show the search UI. Right clicking found chat entries can be copied to the chat editbox again (CTRL+C to copy it to your clipboard then). The chat channel and categories filters will change the chat search UI once you applied the filters.
Anti-Spam : Bored of LFG, WTB and other flooding players ? AntiSpam without any configuration
Resizing Chatbox : Got a Full HD screen or more ? So let's resize your chatbox up to fullscreen
Timestamps : For the ones who like precision, now all messages got their timestamps. Hightly customizable to show your desired format. 11:43 PM or 23:43:12, choose the one you like.
No more whisper missed : A whisper : A sound. Visual
notification if you want it too.
[21:08] [pChat] [Ayantir]: Because chat should be easy to read : Timestamps, From Info and messages can be colorized as you like
Rename your Guilds Chans : Guild Tag or Officer one, each channel can be renamed
French / German translations : Russian & Spanish Translations too
Exit /g1, /say, /o1 : Click on chat, timestamp, channel name, and pChat will set your channel to the one you clicked on
Chat history : No more chat wiped when you'll reloadUI. Also include a restore history when you logout, get kicked or disconnect.
New Fonts embedded : 15 new fonts if you don't like the default one. And you can add the one you want too.
Darker chat window : If your eyes need a little help to improve your chat reading, and if you don't like background it can also be always transparent.
Define your own messages via /msg slash command : Define messages (long text) which you are able to quick post using a !<tag>, e.g. !ts + return key in the chat editbox: Will post the TeamSpeak server host/IP and login data information to chat. Often used with !ga to post guild advertisement texts.
Chat context menu (at names and/or messages) :
-Setting: Show @AccountName/CharacterName (based on the chat channel and your pChat configuration for that chat channel! if you have not enabled @AccountName but only characterName it can be that @AccountName is missing!) in the context menu headline
-Setting: Teleport to player (if in guild, group or on friends list)
-Setting: Send mail to player
-Setting:Ignore will ask before ignoring, with a Yes/No dialog (works in "Friends list" and "Report player" too as you try to ignore a player).
Added teleport slash commands :

Missing a feature? Have a look at the "Other chat addons" section below

Options menu to setup the addon : In Settings > Addon Settings > pChat ("Extensions" in French and "Erweiterungen" in German)

Known Issues :
-Do not use a keybind that uses Alt. For example, Alt+Shift+x, Alt+Ctrl+x, all keybinds without Alt are good.
-If you get an error message first read and apply the information from above, written below the headline
After updating pChat please be sure to check the subfolder "lib" is not there anymore. If it is still there: Delete it!

Any problems : Please let me know with a comment or a PM.
Please read the sticky comment (first comment) before posting a bug!

Important information:
Chat addons cannot work properly if the CrownStore is open! This is due to ZOs restrictions to protect the crown store against changes via addons and affects the chat as well.

Other chat addons
FCOChatTabBrain: Auto switch multiple chat tabs upon incoming messges, remember last chat channel at each tab, automatically change chat channels to last incoming one upon pressing <chat start> (RETURN) key, redirect whisper messages, play sound notifications on messages (keywords, friends, group, leaders, guilds), auto switch to group, and many more features.

If your chat addon needs to be compatible with pChat
The CHAT_ROUTER:RegisterMessageFormatter only allows 1 function for each EVENT_CHAT_* callback function!
If you assign it new you'll overwrite exisitng ones!
So ALWAYS please check if any other chat addon is enabled, add these other known chat addons to your manifest txt ## OptionalDependsOn: list so the other addons load before your addon, and afterwards "post hook", or manually post hook, the other message formatter callback function -> See example for pChat below.
ATENTION: pChat uses the EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED callback to register the message formatters! If you want to post hook it you MUST do that after your own EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED callback! Using EVENT_ADD_ON_LOADED will make pChat overwrite your callback function again (and it's no good to use EVENT_ADD_ON_LOADED here as the chat is ready first after first called EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED)!

Example code for your EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED callback function, for the chat message formatter of EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL

Lua Code:

local function myChatHandlersMessageChannelReceiver(channelID, from, text, isCustomerService, fromDisplayName)
        --your chat EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL callback function
    end
    --For the example OR - Wrapper function for the existing EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL callbackFunction    
    local function myOnChatMessageChannelWrapper(messageText)
       local messageTextNew = messageText
       --Do whatever you need with the messageText passed in from original function
       return messageTextNew
    end
 
 
    if pChat == nil then
        --pChat is not loaded: Add your own handler to the CHAT_ROUTER
        --I'd always check if any other chat addon is active though and maybe thus always add the code below, even if pChat is not loaded
        --as it will keep exisitng callback functions of other addons or event add to the original vanilla chat formatter callback function
        CHAT_ROUTER:RegisterMessageFormatter(EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL, myChatHandlersMessageChannelReceiver)
    else
        --pChat is loaded
        --!!!ATTENTION!!!
        --Do the following at EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED after pChat has set CHAT_ROUTER:RegisterMessageFormatter(EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL, pChatChatHandlersMessageChannelReceiver)
        --Get all chat formatters. Table formatters will contain the different chat event entries, like EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL now
        local formatters = CHAT_ROUTER:GetRegisteredMessageFormatters()
        --Get the chat callback function for EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL of pChat
        local originalpChatFormatter = formatters[EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL]
        if originalpChatFormatter then
 
           --Either:
            --Post Hook pChat's EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL callbackFunction by re-applying the own handler function
            --which first calls pChat's function, and then your own code
            CHAT_ROUTER:RegisterMessageFormatter(EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL, function(...)
                local messageTextOfpChatHandler = originalpChatFormatter(...)
                --Do something with messageTextOfpChatHandler if you need to
                return myChatHandlersMessageChannelReceiver(...)
            end)
 
          --Or:
          --As the callback function of EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL returns  Instead of a manual posthook your could also define your own "wrapper" function around the original function
          CHAT_ROUTER:RegisterMessageFormatter(EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL , function(...)
                    return myOnChatMessageChannelWrapper(originalpChatFormatter (...))
                end)           
 
        end
    end

## v10.0.2.3 ## 2021-09-16
--Updated API, removed old one
--Chat message channel switch to group channel. Thanks to LasherasGH!

## v10.0.2.2 ## 2021-06-22
-Fixed error message for new pChat users, which had no SV to migrate to server dependent values yet

## v10.0.2.1 ## 2021-06-20
-Fixed ChatMentions global leaking variable "news"
-Moved ChatMentions code to subtable pChat.ChatMentions

## v10.0.2.0 ## 2021-06-19
-Changed the SavedVariables to Server dependent ones: Means NA and EU server will save different settings and histories now.
Your current "non-server dependent" settings will be automatically copied to the server you login (NA, EU, PTS).
On-screen and chat messages, as well as LibDebugLogger messages (in the DebugLogViewer UI if you use this) will show you what was migrated and as it finished (2 automatic reloadUIs should happen during the migration process).

Attention: You are able to delete the non-server dependent (old) SavedVariables, to clean up the SV file s ize and increase the loading times, by using the chat slag command /pchatdeleteoldsv
BUT: Do NOT use this command before having logged in to ALL of the servers you play on! These non-server dependent settings are used as the copy base for the different servers. Copying SV from e.g. server NA to EU is not possible! So FIRST login to each server you play on, enable pChat and the dependencies, watch the screen for the migration messages and the reloaduis until it says finished.
After having migrated all servers you can use the slash command to delete the old SV file contents.

## v10.0.1.5 ##
-Changed backup reminder dialog to show gamepad dialog as well

## v10.0.1.4 ##
-Updated API to Blackwood
-Fixed settings menu to show the new CTRL+backspace settings proper: Chat options -> Chat Window -> Chat edit box
-Updated dependency versions
-Added a "Backup your SavedVariables" reminder. It will be shown once weekly or if the game's APIversion changes.
Please backup your SV at least once weekly as the pChat SV structures will change in the future and if migration will fail you will need a file to go back to.

You are able to disable the SV backup reminder in the settings at the Backup submenu.

## v10.0.1.3 ##
-Removed LibMainMenu
->You will need to install LibMainMenu-2.0 now!
-Added new setting to use CTRL+backspace to delete a whole word in the chat edit box (Thanks to Dolgubon)

## v10.0.1.2 ##
-Fixed copy dialog
-Changed copy dialog to disable filter checkboxes and labels for non filtered chat channels

## v10.0.1.1 ##
-Updated Russian translations -> Thanks to ivann339!
-Fixed chat copy dialog messing up the HUD/HUD_UI scenes
-Added keybind: "Copy whole chat (dialog)"
-Updated API version
-Updated needed library LibMainMenu to version 9

## v10.0.1.0 ##
Fixed
Copy dialog (still scene bug active)

Changed
-API version to Markarth
-Dependency versions needed: LibMainMenu v9, LibCustomMenu v694

Added
-Chat mentions by Coorbin, thanks for including this into pChat!

## v10.0.0.5 ##
Removed duplicate constants for the automated messages, hidden in pChat.lua file

## v10.0.0.4 ##
Fixed translations of the automated messages dialog, which you are bale to spawn via the /msg chat slash command

## v10.0.0.3 ##
After some users were not able to find the name format dropdown boxes for guilds and groups in the chat channel submenus, and thought the name format setting in the chat message submenu would apply to all chat messages:
Changed the settings so that the "name format" dropdown boxes for guild and group are also shown (duplicate) in the "message options"->"names in messages" submenu.

Hopefully the "bug reports" stop now as you will find them all at one spot :-)

## v10.0.0.2 ##
Fixed:
-Automated messages keybind and chat comamnd /msg will show the UI again

## v10.0.0.1 ##
Fixed:
-Timestamps and other formatting re-added for system mesages
-Timestamps and other formatting re-added for system mesages send by LibChatMessage (thanks sirinsidiator)
Attention: If you got the addon "DebugLogViewer" enabled the debug messages of addons will be ONLY shown in the DebugLogViewer UI/Quicklog UI, and NOT in the normal chat anymore! This is normal and an intended behaviour.
-Chat tab switch to default chat tab, after login

Added:
-Settings to enable/disable the chat format handlers (colors, timestamps, names, etc.).
You can find these settings as new submenu inside the "Message settings" submenu.
The following chat handlers can be enable/disabled:

System messages
Group left
Group type change
Friends list online status
Ignore list added
Ignore list removed

Standard setting value is: Enabled
You can use them to disable the chat formatters for e.g. online status and thus fix problems with other addons like "No Thank You".
You MUST reload the UI to change these settings so be sure to do so after changing the checkboxe values.

Read more about libraries/dependencies and installing/updating them here: https://www.esoui.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9149 https://wiki.esoui.com/Libraries Whisper messages sometimes do not show the @accountName even though the settings are set to @accountName/charName or charName/@accountName. I cannot find a way to reproduce this constantly. Seems as if the ESO source code is not providing the @accountName constantly to the event as the whisperMessage was received.

Beta version https://github.com/Baertram/pChat/ar...at_guildId.zip Attention: After opening the ZIP archive be sure to ONLY extract the subfolder "pChat" in the the folder "pChat-pChat_guildId". Do not extract the whole folders into your /live/AddOns directory! Your live/AddOns dir must look like this afterwards: Code: /Elder Scrolls Online/live/AddOns/pChat/pChat.txt Other chat addons FCOChatTabBrain: Auto switch multiple chat tabs upon incoming messges, remember last chat channel at each tab, automatically change chat channels to last incoming one upon pressing <chat start> (RETURN) key, redirect whisper messages, play sound notifications on messages (keywords, friends, group, leaders, guilds), auto switch to group, and many more features. Cleaning non-server dependent SavedVariables Attention: You are able to delete the non-server dependent (old) SavedVariables, to clean up the SV file size and decrease the loading times, by using the chat slash command /pchatdeleteoldsv BUT: Do NOT use this command before having logged in to ALL of the servers you play on! These non-server dependent settings are used as the copy base for the different servers. Copying SV from e.g. server NA to EU is not possible! So FIRST login to each server you play on, enable pChat and the dependencies, watch the screen for the migration messages and the reloaduis until it says finished. After having migrated all servers you can use the slash command to delete the old SV file contents. Last edited by Baertram : 02/28/24 at 04:04 AM.

But it's not convenient to play without it. turned it on and now had to turn it off again.

The error 303 especially is related to network issues or server errors.
https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/#en/answer/52702
-> Got nothing to do with addons
Could also be that your SavedVariables of the many laoded addons in total are too big to handle for the game and thus loading times are too much and the server looses connection (that's why sometimes even ESO error 303 could be related to addons, well...). But pChat handles that by truncating the savedvariabes size and only storing a maxium of history entries.
Try to reduce the history saved hours, maybe it helps. But usually it should not matter unless you got 5 guilds with very much guild chat within 24hours, at the same time. Then the SV size of pChat could get very big.
But sould still be handlable, if you do not have like 100 other addons with big SV active at the same time.

Error 334
May have to do with addons, but I never experienced this with my pChat (and 100 other addons) enabled?
Nor do any other guilds of mine having trouble with it.

Normally these errors appear if any addon is sending messegs to the server too quickly, and pChat does not send any messages.
It listens to chat messages only.

But what could be the problem here is that any addons in combination will be a problem, and pChat was only the "one disabled" which made the total sum of events/messages sned/receievd by the server bee too much in the end.
But pChat alone is clearly not the culprit here! Else many others would have the problem including me.

What I experienced is that addons that e.g. send combat data to group members, or use ways to send ultimate data, heal/dps etc. values to group memebrs or even only to yourself, or any total UI change/replacement addons send messages to the server.
Or "mass desconstrucion" or similar carfting addons that do things as bulk/mass.
Or auto repair/auto charge addons could also be an issue.

Overall you canot say it's only 1 addon, often it's many in combination.
So all you can do is use less of the addons at the same time, or find out which one exactly is causing the problems.

But it's definately not pChat (alone).

Yes, the problem is much broader. I know what you wrote. I have a description for the guild on how to reduce the size of savevariables.
Now the size has become significantly smaller from 100-120 MB to 60-70. I know which of the installed addons are garbage. But situations 2.

1. A friend wrote to me on Friday. his game simply did not load after selecting a character. We have disabled all addons. Loading completed. They began to include 10 pieces. We reached the block with pchat. and as a result, they turned it on and the game did not load immediately. Turned off - went in.

2. I play on several computers in different places and with different providers. Lists of addons and saves are synchronized.
1st network is very good. stable 100Mb/s. but this is where errors 303, 334 constantly occur
The 2nd network passes through a number of security complexes and a limit of 25 MB/s. but it never has these problems.
Also, the backbone provider, these last mile providers have the same one.
I play on computers at the same time.
During errors, I turn off various addons and see what happens. pchat one of the addons after turning it off immediately starts normally.

Okay, still cannot see or think of any code in pchat that could make the server/client connection go mad

Do your guild mates use the newest versions and updated all libraries properly? Often old files could be an issue.

Let them totally delete the live/AddOns/pChat folder! Afterwards download and extract new (No Minion! Manually from here: https://www.esoui.com/downloads/dl93...p?171075662215) then extarct the zip file pChat folder and put it into live/AddOns manually.
Same for the needed dependencies.

That's just to make sure all files are the correct ones, no old libraries or subfolders were still there due to "overwriting only".

You can try this so maybe we can narrow it more down somehow:
1. Ingame LAM settings menu: Make screenshot of pChat settings for later
1. Logout
2. Backup your pChat SavedVariables
3. Remove the pChat SavedVariables file then so it will be created with defaults on next login
4. Login to character selection
5. At the char selection -> AddOns list enable the 10 addons + pChat where you got the disconnects/problems.
Make sure needed libraries are enabled too!
6. Test if this helps

If it works that way, then configure your pChat the same way as before (see point 1), maybe in steps.
e.g. test if enabling and saving the chat history maybe an issue here.
-> That may need a day to collect the chats and save them to the SavedVariables again, so maybe your problem with the disconnect only appears next day then!

Everything else I checked already in the code and I cannot see what could be any issue

Using ZOs API and ways like ZOs does it in their chat, no special hidden features or whatever.
I still doubt it actually is pChat that causes it, it must be something in combination then.

Which 10 addons you spoke off are the ones that make the client disconnect if pChat is enabled in addition?
Could you provide me a name lsit please.

That sometimes happen if your game client crashed or pChat SavedVariables got corrupted somehow.
Do you use any other addon that copies your eso settings for characters like "Acocunt Wide Settings *"? Then disable the chat sync there if it got such a setting!

Normally pChat fixes itsself as you click somewhere in tha chat and try to resize it to the top e.g. -> then all of sudden it jumps back into original position.
But you can also try this:
Disable ALL other addons and libraries not needed for pChat so we are sure NO other addons interfere here! Afterwards /reloadUI

Disable in pChat settings the "chat config sync" between characters (this would copy the currently logged in character's chat settings to the next logged in, and then the next logged in settings to the after that logged in, and so on! It won't copy the currently logged in settings to all others chars!!! It's always copying from char to char so if any in between changes the chat that will reflect autmatically "to the next logged in char" and so on -> chain).

Define the chat tab layout and config, size etc. you'd like to use on the character and then do a /reloadui in chat to reload the user interface and properly save the savedvariables. Logout, login next char.
Repeat that on the other characters where needed.
At the end enable the chat config sync again IF you really need that.

If that does not help you might need to logout, backup your pChat SavedVariables file in c:\users\...\documents\elder scrolls online\live\SavedVariables\pChat.lua and remove the original file then there.

I adjust but the next time I log back in, it's back in the spot it was. It's fine on my main.

Also of note, I just switched characters and there was an inconsistency, but now all of those messages have been stripped of [system]. (But just from the chat on the previous character, another friend just logged and [System] is back.)

pChat does not write any [System] in front as far as I know (or at least I never noticed it).
pChat ususally only writes the [@accountName]has logged out/in with charName, or similar
This may come from any on your other addons you use then or any library hat other addons use?

Please disable all other addons and libraries, only use pChat and needed dependencies and try again.
If the [System] still is shown then check the pChat settings if there is anything that prefixes the chat messaes with their chat channel.
If not, it was any other addons/lib you got enabled and you need to find out which one by your own please (enabling them 1 after anoher or in blocks. The addon profile addon "AddonSelector" may help you with it as you can SHIFT+left click at the addon list to enable/disable blocks of addons. Attention: If you enable any addon with AddonSelector it automatically enables the dependencies too! So check that only the wanted addons and dependencies for your currnt test got enabled before doing the reloadUI!)

Hello Ritter,

Are you sure both errors are the same? The call stack looks different at the 2 errors. One relates to changing a chat tab, the other to whispering someone.
Are those 2 different error cases both relating to the same error or did you just enable the enhanced error popup checkbox?

What did you do in detail as the error appeared?
Did you maybe change your chat tabs in the past (removed tabs or added) and did your client crash then?
Try to reopen your chat tab settings of each tab and save it again, then /reloadui to update your SavedVariables properly.

What you must always do please, before reporting errors: Disable all other addons!
Then try to get the same error again.
-If yes: You are able to rebuild the error again?
Please tell me in simple steps, from /reloadui or login to the error, how to do that:

Example:
1. Login/ /reloadui
2. Move mouse above any player
3. Press keybind to whisper to that player below the crosshair
4. Enter any text and press return key
5. Error occurs

-If not: Please find out which of your other addons, in combination with pChat, leads to that error message.

Thanks for updating that info.

Re: Re: Personnalized fonts

It works like a charm. Thanks for the quick reply!

1. Locate "slugfont.exe" in your ESO installation e.g. "D:\Program Files (x86)\Zenimax Online\The Elder Scrolls Online\game\client" and copy it into your "pchat/fonts/yourfont"-folder

2.a Use Command Prompt
Press Win+R or use windows search, type "cmd" and press enter. a new window will open.
Type:

Code:

cd C:\Users\%username%\Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live\AddOns\pChat\fonts\yourfont

while changing the "yourfont" part to the name of your fonts-folder and press enter.
Now that you are in the right folder you can start slugfont.exe and let it do its magic.
The syntax for it is:

Code:

slugfont.exe "FontName.ttf" -o "FontName.slug"

Do this for every font in your folder. It might take a few seconds to convert a file.

2.b Use .bat file
Right-click in your fonts folder, choose new and Text Document
Open it and write the same command as above, you can write multiple lines, one for each font you
want to change
Then go to "Save as...", name it "slug.bat", choose "All Types" for file type and save it in your fonts
folder.
Open the newly created slug.bat and wait a bit, some custom fonts can take a few seconds to get
converted it will automaticaly close after converting all named fonts.

3. Open "fonts.lua" with your texteditor and add a new line at the bottom containing your fonts name&path

Code:

LMP:Register("font", "YourFont", "pChat/fonts/YourFont/YourFont.slug")

do this for every newly added font then save it.

Re: Re: Personnalized fonts

Thank you for the explanation Antisenil, much appreciated.

And yes, I know the obsolete fonts are still in. Had to work on some other projects. As pchat works I did not ouch it yet (again)
