My game used to keep this closed when I closed it but now it opens it every time. I don't really want it there ever because I don't read it. How can I stop it opening when I start the game?

Thanks.

go to MainMenuOverride.res in your resource folder and find "MOTD_Panel" and change "wide" to 0.

mthsadgo to MainMenuOverride.res in your resource folder and find "MOTD_Panel" and change "wide" to 0.

The problem with that though is that it doesn't close it. By doing that, the "new items/alerts" box on the main menu doesn't show up (because it gets hidden while the Message panel is open), and isn't accessible. Not viable for me, unfortunately.
