Hey all,


It's a pretty simple question, really. Is it possible to use text to throw text up on the screen? I really don't like the idea of using an image file for text. So, is it possible to just have text rendered in realtime up on the screen? Mainly I want to use this as dialogue/voice over subtitles for dialogue. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!



Thanks!

Most definitely

instead of using hudimagefine=(path to image), you just use hudtext=(place dialog here) and hudsize=(font size number here, ex: 24)

Hey,


it worked like a charm! Thanks! I have one other question...how do I use a timer for my text? I'm following the tutorial in the Community Guide. In the tutorial, the script is written so the text is only on the screen while you're in the trigger zone. This is the script:




How do I use a timer to make my text, "Samuels! Get down here now!!" stay on the screen for a specified amount of time?



Thanks!
