Chat window?
« on: October 23, 2017, 01:52:00 PM »
I searched and I'm sure this is an easy answer..

My chat window has disappeared in VR. I put it down low, near where my knees would be. It's not there anymore and I can't seem to figure out how to bring it back up.

Go to GUI setting and mess with the sphere size slider.  Also, slide the text bar visibility slider so the box darkens.  This makes it easier to find and slide the boxes around.  After you get them set then put the shading slider where you like it.

Look straight up, while in tower,and as Randy said"sliders to Dark". If is where mine ends up...its along one of the Roof Trusses. You will need to run cursor over the area to have it really show up though :uhoh  Looks like a shadow until you run across it :frown: Its ended up there EVERY time i have this problem :cheers:

worst case you can't find it, go to your aces high settings files possibly located at

C:\Program Files\Oculus\Software\Software\hitech-creations-aces-high\settings

and delete the VR_filters.cfg file

which will put that window back to it's default and you'll see it next time you log in.
Gone from the game. Please see Spikes or Nefarious for any Ahevents.net admin needs.

Mine randomly goes back up there sometimes when I tab out to windows and back. Very annoying. Anyone know why/how to prevent it?

I have a theory. I sometimes have music open in another window, when I tab out of AH to change the song...and tab back into AH...I will click on "Hanger" and music will pause :headscratch: If however I tab out the same but to get back into AH,I click on the toolbaricon(not sure but its the "Open window" tabs along bottom of screen...this doesnt happen. So, maybe tabing out of AH cause some errant clicking on things in AH?  :uhoh
