I experience the same issue as Kernel. I am running HL2MP.

Any news on the {Commands}?

Valve, for top left. Sorry. Nothing I can do about that.

Now the hex color been a problem. I will have to check it out tomorrow night (monday night) when I get back from work then.

Experiencing a display problem with the addition of color choices.

All messages are white, and begin with "0 ". If it is replaced with any other character it displays them. I am using "-" right now because it looks funny otherwise

Yeah! You're not alone!

As you can see here, some other user - and me too - have exactly the same problem:

Although i'm glad i can have white text, anything other than green in a tf2 server, i'd like to have the ability to vary the color. For now i have made the following changes: /* Hex value of the chat ads color. */ "AdsChatColor" "-" So it wil display in game as: -My Message. Looks a little better than a single letter or number. Any ideas? I'm running tf2 with the following plugins on a linux box: Ads 1.0.4.0 Hlstats 1.0.7 AutoBan Bad Name Web shortcuts

But i guess we have to wait until ^BuGs^ has enough time to fix this...

If source was posted I could take a look and make a quick hack

However messages appear prefixed with 0? 0 Use the /voteban command if there's a cheater! And they're colored in the regular color not 0x04.

We are also getting the "0" in front of ads if used in chat area. Changed location to hint box and "0" is gone.

[P4rD0nM3]

Is hint box the grey bottom center message?
