Chat preference

[Lynx0]

Is there a mod or anything that let's you change the colors of your incoming and outgoing whispers? I really hate that blizz removed the feature.

what? its still in the game.. I have changed mine since the patch.

No. It just lets you change whisper colors, not make incoming and outgoing different colors. Ive seen many posts on forum sites about this issue and have yet to see anyone say its been fixed. Was hoping there was some sort of mod or something...

I don't think that's default behavior to be able to separate incoming from outgoing, is it? I think it's just viewed as a channel. Did you have an addon that provided that feature?

If i understand you correctly i do this with mumble (Found here on WoWI)

in the config.lua file

CHAT_WHISPER_GET = "From %s:",	
CHAT_WHISPER_INFORM_GET = "To %s:";

you may change the colors.

for example:

CHAT_WHISPER_GET = "|cffff0000From|r %s:",	
CHAT_WHISPER_INFORM_GET = "|cffff0000To|r %s:";

Tho, mumble does change the entire ChatFrame so I'm not sure if you would want that

Before the most recent patch, you were able to color the outgoing and incoming different. It made it a lot easier to tell who said what when talking to several ppl thru whispers.

Anyway thanks all for responses, guess I'll just have one color, and have to pay more attn to my whispers lol.

There's WoW Instant Messenger

Give it a try, it's absolutely brilliant (and you can change the incoming/outgoing colours )
