Logging Chat or Tells

I want to log chat or tells. I found where to enable both, and did, but could not find directions for how to start or stop a log, or where to go later to retrieve it. Can anybody either tell me how or tell me where to look for the directions? Thanks.

If you turn it on, then everything said gets saved in a folder called logs/game. It will be a text file with the date as the name.

It does not save combat messages



Your character does not have capped defense. Depending on your AT the cap is between 175% - 225%. Your defense is not teal in the combat window, it can go higher. STOP SAYING IT IS CAPPED! The correct term is Soft Cap.
I enjoy playing in Mids. I specialize in Melee Characters, other AT's usually bore me.

Thanks for responding Pine. I logged in my character with log tells enabled and did some tells that should have been saved. Then I logged out and did a search for "logs/game" and got the message "no results were found." Where would such a folder be found?

The logs folder should be where you installed City of Heroes. For example, mine is located at:

C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\logs


Arc ID: 348998 - Becoming a villain
Arc ID: 373341 - To Save a Hero

Got Inf?

Bingo. Just as you said. Thanks so much for your help.

odd. Mine are all saved under
C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\logs\game
C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\logs has a folder game, and then 2 Coh updater logs.

Oh well, glad you figured it out.

On a side note, I found through a little more digging that in fact Combat messages do in fact get logged as well.

Yeah - anything that gets sent to your chat windows (including the basic "Hit", "Miss", etc) are automatically saved even if you don't have it set to show.
