Shalymar Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 I am a little surprised we haven’t heard anything about this yet. Under the Flying text UI settings you can turn on and off all kinds of features. Why this hasn’t been addressed yet is a little discouraging. It is very difficult especially in PvP to see what your opponent is doing because you cannot see them with the wall of Red Text Spamming Down the Center of Your Screen!

Elorne Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 That's remarkably unhelpful. This is definitely my biggest gripe with SWtOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyplaya Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Unfortunately this is already a default game mechanic and we cannot interfere with it. thats realy comforing... So does that mean that everything that is in the game as a default cant be edited? If so then they realy made it hard to upgrade the game...

Vapesk Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I wouldn't trust anything support responds to tickets with. If anything we've learned they don't have a clue what's going on, and in-game support is basically useless. Until someone from the community team responds I wouldn't give any merit to that message. There have been lots of instances of support saying something and devs/community guys coming back and saying "They were wrong." I'm also hoping we get a way to turn this off, it can be pretty annoying if you're trying to play the game without staring at your ability bar the whole fight.

adizs Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Bump! We need this very bad... Also, you h4xX0rs, get on this! Unfortunately there's only one .ini file and it only contains: //--------------------------------------------------------------------------// // WARNING: ** DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE ** // // Making any changes to this document will result in the corruption of // // your install and will require the use of the repair utility. // //--------------------------------------------------------------------------// [Renderer] Width=1152 Height=864 WindowX=-1 WindowY=-1 FullScreen=true doShadows=true [Repository] BaseResourceFileName=..\..\Assets\swtor_ Then there are two .settings file but they are useless.

Lijun Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Please make an option to turn these Error Messages off like other popular games have. Please. This is my #1 problem with this game. Some classes/abilities are meant to be spammed.
