Custom Chatbox help

[Cpt Rawr]

Hi,

I have been wanted to create a custom chatbox, however I get a problem where when I disable the default one with CHudChat the console and esc menu cannot be opened. I have searched around but have not been able to find the solution, if someone could tell me why this is happening that would be great.

Thanks

local hide = {
["CHudChat"] = true
}

hook.Add( "HUDShouldDraw", "hidechat", function( name )
if ( hide[ name ] ) then return false end

end )

function GAMEMODE:StartChat()

return true
end

There was a thread posted a month ago about this problem. Here is the link: Disabling "CHudChat"
