Hi guys,Firstly a big thanks to the hard work that the developers of the private servers are putting in to these projects,we as a community really appreciate it!

Secondly ive got an issue with chat in my bliss private server as mentioned in the thread title.Ive tried a couple of workarounds thanks to other posts ive found,but none seem to fix.
The channels we would like are side,group,vehicle and direct.as im hoping to make this server public when chat is working.
I followed Angry Adventures tutorial on you tube to set this up

What ive tried:
1) from a command prompt ive ran perl build.pl --channels 1,3,4,5 and it seems to do its thing and i get that the build was successful.
2) I have edited the description.ext in the master folder (repository) located on my root drive to reflect the new channels.
3) i have tried unpacking the mission file in my OA folder with cpbo/pboview and editing the description.ext there then repacking (instructions i followed for this wasn't very clear).

I like to find my fixes on google rather than ask repeatedly in forums,but this one has me stumped.
If anyone can help me with this you can have my beans!

Edit: Local chat does work and so does local comms
 
Are you trying to just get side chat to work? If so you should be doing --channels 0,2,6

Hi thanks for the reply,
I'm looking to get side,group and vehicle working if possible
Direct is working as it should

this is the line as it appears in my description.ext in repository.
disableChannels[]={0,2,6};

I will run the perl command again with the --channels 0,2,6 and test.il reply soon if chat works or not.
Cheers,

I loaded up the server and i still have the same issues.when running the perl command i noticed it copied 3 files to a temp folder -discription.ext,init.sqf and mission.sqm.Not sure if thats any help at all,but it built them successfully anyway.so all i have is :
group chat in lobby,direct and vehicle. (vehicle did work,my apologies!)
what extra is needed is group and side chat in game and il be happy with that.
regards,
BB
 
yes chernarus runs fine other than this and its running as instance 1.

I will be unable to test the server for the next 24hrs (my admin buddy has gone out) so if you can think of anything that may affect this wierd chat issue,il will try them,and post back here tomorrow with my results.

many thanks for the help so far :)
