system chatbox empty

I did...something...to my chatbox settings last night, and now nothing will appear in the system chat box. I did a search on this forum and found a thread that referred to this problem, with these instructions:

Good news: I figured out which file is affected.
Bad news: It's the same file that stores your hotbar data.

Default path to file is:

C:\Program Files\Monolith Productions\The Matrix Online\Profiles\ACCOUNT NAME\CHARACTER NAME\cui.cfg

If only I could read jibberish.

So in theory, deleting that file would bring the system messages back right? But on the downside you lose all your hotbar stuff right?

So if I was willing to lose all my hotbar stuff and have to redo it again, I would delete that and it would bring system messages back supposedly...Are there any other known side-effects of doing this?

Yup, the only side effect is losing your hotbar settings.

Is this correct? Deleting this file will restore the system chatbox to normal?

I don't mind losing my hotbar settings, I can set them back up in a few minutes, I just dont' want to lose anything else.

I had the exact same problem this morning, and in the end, there was no workaround. I deleted cui.cfg and now everything's back to normal, although all my macros and such are gone.

Yes this should restore your chat box settings since it is the configuration settings file. So by removing it you will lose the hotbar and macros but it will reset your chat box.

Or do what I do, just got to your system options and tick the area and tell boxes, fixes it but doesn't show the boxes ticked if you go back to the system options. So you keep all your marcos and such Bayamo.

Thanks for the help, I was able to fix it! SMILEY
