Chat logs? - Guild Wars Forums

BoboftheDead · Mar 01, 2008, 09:15 PM // 21:15

Hello everyone

I'm after a quick bit of help - can you remind me how to take chat logs from Guild Wars? I remember doing it before, but I simply can't remember how it's done.

Basically what I want is a log of everything that's being said in my game.

Thanks for your help!

Open the chat box, and hit Print Screen.
You can also go to Options-->Edit Interface---> and expand the chatbox vertically.

If you're looking for a way to auto-save everything into a text file or something, there is no way that I've ever seen to do that.

That would be great, though.
Yeah, i'd say the same as MisterB; Options -> Interface -> Expand Chatbox -> Print Screen.

If your after something from a conversation you had that is nolonger on screen there is no way for us to access them.

Anet can and does look at chat logs when needed to but they, as far as I know, do not make that information availible to the general public.

In another game i play we have
/savechat
or
/startchat and /stopchat and it goes into the Game folder same as the screens
wish we had that in GW as half the time I forget a great convo or tip I have had with a guildie at the end of a mission.
