yes it can

[Engine.HUD]
bMessageBeep=True &lt;-- turn to false
HudCanvasScale=0.95
ConsoleMessageCount=5  &lt;--  turn to 0
ConsoleFontSize=5
MessageFontOffset=0
bShowHud=True
DebugDisplay=AI[/quote]

Nice, thanks. Now what about end of map chat, the actual chat tab? Can that be disabled from view?[/quote]

No, it cannot. I'm not 100% sure but I think it's also in the console. 

This is the only way to &quot;temp&quot; disable chat. Too bad it only works in-game, and not in a menu.
