The chat box has always been bugged for me. Issues change with nearly every single patch of the game. Currently, one I hit the enter key to open the chat box, I cannot type in it or exit the chat box window and the game becomes unplayable. Can't respawn, can't do anything since the chat window is still active and open. This requires force closing of the game within Windows. Previously (two patches ago and prior), I was unable to type in the chat box and requires me to click elsewhere on the screen to exit the chat box. In the last update/patch before the currently one, I was able to utilize the chat box normally and it functioned as intended, but no longer the case.
Community ManagerHi there,
A player shared a workaround that appears to have helped with this issue.
They found that the chat window getting stuck may be related to MSI Afterburner’s on-screen monitoring display. After disabling the on-screen overlay, the game was reportedly able to run normally again.
If you’re using MSI Afterburner, it may be worth turning off its on-screen display feature and testing whether that changes the behavior on your side.
Thanks, and if anyone else tries this, feel free to share whether it helps.
yes and no
this is not AB, its RTSS(rivatuner statistics server). the secondary app that installs when you install AB. RTSS is what allows the OSD modules to function.
unchecking all the OSD modules in AB under "monitoring" lets RTSS close. if you leave one OSD module checked, RTSS with reopen itself automagically. once RTSS closes, the chat works like normal.
restarted the game and got into games 3 times. all 3 times the chat worked normally with no RTSS running. AB can still run for your fans, just cant easily see your fps now.
i would rather have a working chat than worry about remembering a workaround every game.
i would guess RTSS is seen as some cheating program to the "anticheat" stuff dice runs. hopefully the devs can fix their game
