Virindi Chat System 5

Virindi Chat System 5 is a filtering plugin for text in the AC chatboxes. It allows you to define rules that specify where matching text will go, and what color it will become. These rules apply not only to AC's text, but also to the text output of all Virindi Plugin Bundle plugins.

Using VCS5

Notes

• Pattern text is case-sensitive
• Action doesn't do anything yet, just put 0
• Windows is where you want the text to appear, the numbers work as follows: 1=main chat, 2=chat window 1, 3=chat window 2, 4=chat window 3, 5=chat window 4
• Green 'link' text markup is matched with the pattern rather than ignored
• Pattern color is the color of the original text
• Change to is the color you want the text to be

Presets

• Some default rules

Patterns

• The place to add your rules (As shown below)

A rule to move VIGeneral chat

To move VIGeneral chat (and all chat-only channel chat from the Virindi Integrator 2 plugin) to another window, use the following rule:

Change to: LightBlue (or whichever color you like)
Action: 0
Windows: 5 (This will move the chat to floating chat window 4)
Pattern Color: LightBlue
Pattern text: [VI] [*] * says, "*"
Use Regex: unchecked

Be sure to click create/change to save it.

A rule to move a specific channel

To move a specific channel from the Virindi Integrator 2 plugin to another window, use the following rule:

Change to: LightBlue (or whichever color you like)
Action: 0
Windows: 5 (This will move the chat to floating chat window 4)
Pattern Color: LightBlue
Pattern text: [VI] [<Tell:*>channel<\Tell>] * says, "*" (Note: Replace channel with the name of the channel)
Use Regex: unchecked

Filter -b- & -t- from Allegiance Chat

To remove bot spam from Allegiance chat only, use the following rule:

Change to: Filter
Action: 0
Windows: 1
Pattern color: Orange
Pattern text: * says, "*-t-"
Use Regex: unchecked

Be sure to click create/change to save it. Then repeat steps to create same rule but replace the -t- with -b- and you have now successfully filtered bot spam from your allegiance chat.

An example regex rule

Let's say for instance you wanted to change the color of anytime someone said your name.

In this example we are going to use the character name Dragonrider.

Change to: Color you want it output to.
Action: 0
Windows: 1 (Note: Window 1 is main chat, window 2 is floating chat window 1, etc)
Pattern color: Any
Pattern text: .* says, ".*[dD]ragonrider.*" (Will work for all chat channels and area chat)
-OR-
Pattern text: .* tells you, ".*[dD]ragonrider.*" (Will work for direct tells)
Use RegEx: checked

A rule for making a sound on /tells

Let's say you want to have a sound played for all incoming /tells. (Including /tells from NPCs)

Change to: Yellow. (Because /tells are Yellow)
Action: 1 (Make note of this number)
Windows: 1 (Note: Window 1 is main chat, window 2 is floating chat window 1, etc)
Pattern color: Any
Pattern text: .* tells you, ".*"
Use RegEx: checked

Be sure to click create/change to save it.
