Zugg Software :: View topic - Can't send ZChat commands from Zmud window.

When I first downloaded Zmud, I was using version 5.55. That was several years ago. Back then, I could send ZChat commands from within the Zmud window. As such, it eliminated the need for me to continuously keep reopening the zchat window in order to send messages. Ever since I upgraded to version 6.0, the commands from Zmud no longer work. For example, if I type #CHATALL it does absolutely nothing. I am now using version 7.13 and it still doesn't work. Also, zchat doesn't show up in the plugin menu for zmud. I got the feeling from reading the zchat help menu that it's supposed to be there. Can anyone help?

You have to specifically add zChat as a plugin. Go to the Plugin menu and select Install. Click the Add button and locate the ZCHATAPI.DLL file and add that as a plugin. Then it should work.

The #CALL command in zChat conflicts with the internal #CALL command in zMUD, so you have to use the syntax #zChat.CALL to access that command (or assign it to an alias of your own).
