Remove ":" from start of nick at chat

Hello,

In my client, every start of a nick there is a ":", and i want to remove it. How do i do that ?

Picture for understanding : http://i45.tinypic.com/dmcyso.jpg

Ty,
Avi

:lol: That's Gregoory's Name:Chat overlap fix... To fix, just don't apply that edit, and live with Chat written over the top of peoples names.

Remove it and you will see how beautyfull it is without that ":"

Offset in game.exe (lunarpt 0.2d) = 001BC108
Replace 3A with 00

If you can't find that offset in your client, search this text string -> :%s:
or hex vallue = 3A 25 73 3A

wooh.

thanks moons.. :P

it helps

It wont work =] you did a little mistake :P
Search for this as hex value:

Code:

---

3A 25 73 3A 20 25 73

---

and replace it with:

Code:

---

25 73 3A 20 25 73 00

---

Good luck all ^_^

It works and btw, I didn't say to replace anything on that hex value, it was just to show where it is in the game.exe if the offset i gave isn't the same in your client.

Yeah, that works fine but the reason Gregoo had that ":" added on his guide was to fix the font from hiding behind your "bubble name"... see I removed it to show you guys how it looks when it's removed--

So IMO I don't think removing it will fix it, maybe you have to remove it and recode some other values through OlyDbg, but I'm not really bothered by that extra ":", for me it's okay.

That's why I pointed back to the original tutorial AB.

With the information Gregoo gives, you could rewrite most of those display routines and make it better without the extra ":", but it's also clear how much work would be involved in doing that, and how simple this ":" fix is.

If you wanted to fix it another way, I wouldn't start with a client that had the ":" prefix. But, go ahead, knock yourself out.

Lol @ Airbourne showing his account name,

and the text overlapping depends on wich charset you use :rolleyes:

Code:

005896F3  |. 8DBC39 7E01000>LEA EDI,DWORD PTR DS:[ECX+EDI+17E]

It's code of space edited when you chat and edit client with tohoma font.

So? Haha I can change it at any time ;)

And Triplex maybe you have a different charsets and font, but like Bobsobol said, "It's possible but it's much more complicated, when a ":" is a simple fix to it".
