[SCRIPT] How do i display a message on the screen?

[oscar1007]

Basically create new category whatever name you want and new entity with some name. Use that one:

SetMessage(string& asTextCategory, string& asTextEntry, float afTime);

This one will show the text in the middle tho. Only way to get text where subtitles are is using that function:

void AddEffectVoice(string& asVoiceFile, string& asEffectFile, string& asTextCat, string& asTextEntry,
bool abUsePosition, string& asPosEntity, float afMinDistance, float afMaxDistance);
This adds a voice and an effect to be played. It is okay to call this many times in order to play many voices in a row. The EffectVoiceOverCallback is not called until ALL voices have finished.
asVoiceFile - the voice to play
asEffectFile - the effect to play
asTextEntry - the text entry in the .lang file
asTextCat - the category in the .lang file
abUsePosition - ?
asPosEntity - the entity at which the effect appears
afMinDistance - minimum distance to see the effect
afMaxDistance - maximum distance to see the effect


-- But that would mean that you need empty sound file attached to any objects and it would do the job.

Ok thanks so if i want to display the message "RUUUN!!" as a text on the screen, how would i write it in the .lang file?

Thanks your awesome for helping!
