okay, so i've found the font i want to use and it looks great, but, theres a horrible white box around everything that is said. how do i get rid of it? and how do i cahnge the colour of my characters (and other characters) speach?

i'm useing the 'Display' command to make him talk but the words are centerd on the screen. is there another command to make my character talk??

Code Select

DisplaySpeech (CHARID, string message); will make the character say the text, rather than just display a message.

You can set speech colour in the character tab (it's a numerical value, under the speeds), or with

Code Select

SetTalkingColor (CHARID, int newcolor);

If you're using 3.0, you should use this instead of Emerald's old style code:

player.Say("something");

or...

cCharacterName.Say("Something");
