One of the best things about hitsmode was that a blank line was popped into the hitsmode windows every two seconds. This caused all the battle spam to clear off your screen completely after a few minutes. Is this feature still there? I doubt it looking at the pics... it looks like all they did was add more granularity to the melee filter. That's good, but dammit I want the ability to add an auto-scroll feature to any chat window to clear it out over time...

The thing I liked most about hits mode was the ability to condense the messages. "Punch 74" is much preferable to "You punch a Verant Employee for 74 points of damage".



It doesn't look like that option is available unfortunately, but I have yet to try it out.

Exactly Moro. While the filters are very useful, without the ability to alter the displayed message, it still leaves a bunch of problems for me. I had my hitsmode boxes compact and still useful. I really dread having to have a nearly full size chat window so that it can display the target name or dmg type.

It's there, under a new option in the main r-click function... hitsmode abbreviations and such

I saw someone have a set up that removed the chat input box from all but the main chat window. A perfect option for our hitsmode boxes. That would clear up the extra space as well as the ocassional problems with chat going to the wrong box when you typed replies.

logged in for a little bit to play around with it...I LOVE it. can emulate my old hitsmode setup again minus the the spam eventually fading <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/ohwell.gif ALT=":"> IMO, gonna be a bit more functional than old hitsmode as they even have an option to abbreviate the spam. very nice.

Heh..absolutely the BEST was the ability to put mob's enrage in a different window. Have a very small window that just displays enrage, and deaths (to cause scrolling).

NO MORE ENRAGE DEATHS BABY! <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)">
