Hoping that there is a really easy answer to this, so here it goes:

I am having trouble with my chat filters. No matter what I set as a filter, I cannot stop the log from showing other peoples damage and actions. It creates a wall of spam in my chat log almost everywhere I go. I don't know if anyone else has had this issue or if it is somehow related to using windower, but if anyone knows how to get it to stop please let me know either here or in a PM.

Many thanks in advance.

Are you using battlemod? Battlemod doesn't respect normal chat filters, you have to use its settings.

Try making sure all your filters are on and then logging out and saving your data to the server. When that's done, reload your data from the server and log back in. I forgot what the key commands are exactly, though. Let me look them up.

Shift + Alt + Ctrl + B to save, Shift + Alt + Ctrl + A to load.

Do you have your chat logs split up? Try checking the Window 1 and Window 2 settings.

In Windower\addons\battlemod\data there's a settings.xml file. Edit that and //lua reload battlemod.

The filters seems to be in this folder:
windower\addons\battlemod\data\filters
