This mod tweaks the chat box in order to improve its readability. Useful particularly for roleplayers/multiplayers. It's made to be used with Enhanced Chat Readability, but you will still be fine even without that mod.
Client-side mod, safe to be installed for multiplayer even if others don't have this installed.
Changes:
- Tabs have subtle colorization to indicate category ("All" is green, "Log" is cyan, etc), matching vanilla colorization;
- Tabs have better contrast between active and inactive tabs;
- Text color in typing box is now white instead of green;
- More readable "Party" chats;
- More chat history limit (from 64 to 512);
- Longer chat duration before fading out (from 5 seconds to 15 seconds);
- Whispers from other players appear on every channel (instead of only on "All").
Inspired from:
Chat Duration, Chat Mod v2.1, Whisper Chat.
