Title: Sierra style dialogs bottom of screen
Post by: Thanyx on Sat 16/09/2017 12:38:30
Hello

How can I put Sierra style dialog conversation on the bottom of the screen?

It is on the top by default. Is there any way to just relocate it, or will I need to create a whole new GUI?

Try enabling Speech.CustomPortraitPlacement and use Speech.PortraitXOffset and Speech.PortraitY to control portrait and speech text positions.

GlobalScript:
Code (ags) Select

function game_start()
{
    Speech.PortraitXOffset = 100;
    Speech.PortraitY = 100;
    Speech.CustomPortraitPlacement = true;
}


Play around with the values to suit your needs.

By the way, this script only works in AGS 3.3.0 or above.
