Oh I see. so you're saying that the whole "Text above the character's head" is like the default of the AGS system?

Hmm, I guess then it would be way easier to just leave it as it is? Because I wanted the dialogue to appear in windows like other Adventure/Role Playing Games like Final Fantasy.

But if that is hard work in terms of AGS, I guess we could live without it. We managed to make the Message Window appear with the text, but there were several problems.

1) The message window appears above the characters head, so we couldn't reposition it
2) The text didn't appear "in" the window, but instead on the top of the "image"
3) It only showed the image of the window where the text appears, so we couldn't resize it

But thank you for the reply, at least now we know what the problem is. But if anyone else have an answer to this or a way to solve it then by all means ^^

Hi there, new here.

I assume this should be a simple technical issue as it's just about repositioning the dialogue that appears in the game.

After my friends and I placed in dialogue and tested the game. The dialogue appears but it appears on top of the main character's head (Even when he is talking to another person).

I have created a message window for the game that appears at the bottom of the screen. I want to have that message window appear whenever any conversational dialogue appears and I also want the dialogue text to appear in the window.

My friends and I have searched the net and the tutorials, but they all just talk about how to get the text into the game and nothing about how to reposition it.

So can anyone please help us with this problem?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
