Hiya! Just to check, did you save the settings? When you do, it should download a file called simple-chat-data - you need to save that in the same folder as the html file and then refresh the html file after

this may be a slightly stupid question but how do you refresh a html file ^-^'

when you select a browser source in OBS, a refresh button should appear

restarting OBS entirely also works but this is quicker

Howdy!
Just messing about with your chat stuff on stream, gonna take me a while to wrap my head around CSS and JS, but trying to include a colour picker for the text and border. Any ideas where I'd start on that?

THANK YOU!!!
I don't want to show you the garbage I hacked together lol
I got everything working how I had it before in the OTHER chat overlay and am very happy with everything.

Thank you so much for your work!!

Is there a way to make the outline on the text much thicker? I tried adjusting the outline in the CSS file but I don't really know how to do it so it did not turn out well lol I was hoping to make the outline somewhere between 5-10px thick rather than 1-2px

not really unfortunately, outer text outline isn't really a thing in CSS so I used many layers of text shadows instead

making a smooth 2px outline already required a lot of text shadows, idk what it would take to make it look nice for 3px and up

For anyone else who might want this: I managed to pull off the look i was hoping for by adding an obs-shaderfilter to the source! I used "alpha_border" and set the border thickness to 10, exactly what I wanted! :3
