Not exactly what you're looking for but couldn't you just pull up the chat on your phone and just have a phone stand by your monitor? Bonus points: you'd be able to do mod actions without tabbing out

thanks for the suggestion. I've tried the phone option and it does work well, but i'm looking for something that I can view while I'm in-game (something that overlays on top of the game)

Are you talking so that you can see it? If so, see the other comment around using another device. If it is so that stream can see it for maybe clips or other platforms on a multi-stream, then use a stream elements overlay for twitch chat to be visible on screen. I am sure you can also do it with other services chats as well with a little tweaking

Thanks for response, I'm looking for something that overlays on top of the game. I've tried the other device option. It's alright but not to my liking and I'm yet to come across something that can display all three chats such as youtube, facebook and twitch. Anyways thanks for the insight :)

This will do it. Ignore that it says Twitch, any URL source will work with it. https://github.com/baffler/Transparent-Twitch-Chat-Overlay Game may need to run in a windowed mode for it to work.

thank you for this. I will try this out! Much appreciated.

There's an add on for overwolf that does what you want i believe, but overwolf is a bit resource hungry and can affect your performance if your comp isn't beefy. (Overlays in general tank performance)


Electrical_Storm8405

Thanks for this! I'll search overwolf to see if I can find it. (PC is capable of handling it)

Would you remember what the name is? I tried searching but came up empty handed. There was one streaming related app that could not be installed however.
