Title: Problems with changing talking veiw
Post by: on Thu 22/02/2007 16:37:30
I have a problem with my talking veiw.
I have an animation of my character IAIN falling and landing on his back.
I have another animation of IAIN standing up.
I have a VEIW for IAIN of him on his back.
inbetween these animation I want IAIN to say OUCH usubg the VEIW of him on his back. but of course when IAIN speaks he uses the talking veiw of him standing up.

Can I desable the Talking veiw for a limited time? Or is there another way to solve this problem? I have tryed the manuals but havn't come up with anything. (I may of course just be a little dim.)


Any help is greatly apreciated.

Have you read the manual and found the Character.SpeechView (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/manual/Character.SpeechView.htm) property, which would let you change or (by setting it to -1) disable the Speech view?

If not - read the manual more thoroughly next time. If you have found this, and are having a problem USING it, can you give us a bit more information about what you've tried (e.g. the code you're using).

AFAIK you can't change the speech view with Interaction Editor commands, if that's what you're trying.
