Title: Can't change speech style
Post by: Blackleaf7 on Fri 08/10/2021 13:08:37
I'm trying to change the speech style from Lucas arts to SierrawithBackground but it will not change despite me changing it in the general game settings.
I tried using Speech.Style to change it manually but it said that the speech variable had already been defined despite me being unable to find where it was defined. I'm really stuck here so if anyone knows if this
is a glitch or I'm doing something wrong I'd really appreciate it.

Do you characters have SpeechViews set? They need it to start using Sierra style.

Please post how you wrote this in script, there might be a syntax mistake.

The manual says
static eSpeechStyle Speech.Style
but you don't have to type all that. Check the example further down:
Code (ags) Select
  Speech.Style = eSpeechSierra;
