Ive used this addon forever as well. I was Sad to see it break and have also been looking for fixes.

Found this Fix today on another forum.

https://www.mmo-champion.com/threads...don-that-Broke

Applied the fix in the thread and it seems to be working for me now

in case it breaks again there is also a mod called Chatter that hasnt been updated yet that will at least hide the normal chat tabs.

Update -

Though really not necessary, I use this addon for my own custom interface (yours is very nice). I was wondering if you felt like updating it. It works fine for 6.0.2, but the .toc is out of sync.

The update is really cosmetic for WoW, I can adjust the .toc on my interface so it will load properly, I was curious if you might update it after all the work you put into RealUI.

Any way to make the chat tab flash go away on mouseover? Instead of having to click it.

I second that, It's been a while since this addon was last time updated, hopefully it will get some care from the author once MoP officially comes out
