Chat Location - rbjaxter/budhud GitHub Wiki

Description

The chat starts in the top left by default, but can be easily moved into the lower left corner of your screen.

Note that you may need to move the achievement tracker depending on where you move the chat, as it may overlap. The achievement tracker is controlled in the hudlayout.res file.
