Message Strings

[Van Halen Man]

How do I make people talk, with out using the original tileset????

[rocksfan13]

Yes. But, can you give an example of what you are talking about.

What the-

OK, there's more confusion in this topic than your average episode of Lost.

First of all, strings have nothing to do with tilesets. At all. To make a new string, go to Quest, then Strings. Click New String, and type away. To make the string appear on-screen, go to Data, then Message String. Choose the sting you want- note that you must have a Guy set for the string to appear.

Secondly, I think Rocksfan replied in the wrong topic. That, or he has a speical code I didn't hear about.

Tygore, I do all that, but nothing happens and I can't see the guy either.

Are you doing this on a dmap with a level number higher than 0? If not, you can't have guys and strings show up right on the screen this way, you have to walk into a cave first. Guys and strings WILL show up right on the screen on level numbers other than 0.

Thank you! I have been trying to figure this out for a long time!
