Simple Question Regarding Overworld Strings

[Beldaran]

I am interested in having a string be displayed over the overworld when I move Link to one of the screens. I have set my overworld as DMAP 1, as per another thread I discovered regarding this matter. I have a string and have it set as the message string, and I even have a guy set for the room (screen).

But nothing happens when I go to the screen.

I am severely ignorant of ZQuest's workings and I don't understand much about how to do this. Can anyone give a concise method for displaying a string in the overworld?

Thanks.

since strings can't be displayed on overworld screens, make sure the dmap type of the screen you want it to be displayed in is either 'cave' (easiest) or freeform dungeon.

you have everything working but that.

Thank you.:)

The dmap has to have a level number greater than 0 for a string to appear
Also when you do that it causes that screen to disappear from the overworld (spacebar) map.
