so i researched and found out eso should have a command /chatlog and there is a file in Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live\Logs called chatlog.log but when ever i use the command. Nothing is saved to the file. Any ideas?
Theres also these API commands in the wiki:
This function is private and cannot be used in addons
LogChatText private (string text)
ToggleChatLog()
"UPDATE":
i used /chatlog. closed out of the game and then opened chatlog.log and it had some chat history in it.
Will test further.
