Dialog Designer/Creator

[ekin06 1]

yo guys!

is there any tool or preset out yet, which lets you create a dialog quick and dirty or do i have to build the dialog from scratch on my own?

i'd appreciate any ideas/suggestions. thank you!

does anyone have a tutorial how to build a dialog?

kind regards,

Go into the editor, place one unit down as a player, press Preview

Once in the mission, Press F1 -> GUI (at the bottom right).

That's the built-in GUI Editor made by a BIS Developer (Gaia).

Press F1 in the GUI editor for the help.

Hm, unfortunately this is not working for me. Is that a dev-build thing only?

You must be in a mission preview coming from the editor.

That is what i came from. When I press F1 nothing is happening, except a radio-window is popping up in the upper left corner. :(

Disabled all mods as well, didn't help.

Of course... you must first press "Escape" before "F1"

Thanks that worked. Next time you should mention that a lil bit earlier. I am not very skilled in mindreading ;D.

How do I edit an existing Dialog in a mission? I don't want to try and recreate the dialog from scratch. Only make a couple changes.

Go back into the dialog creator, press Ctrl + i, type in the field this: missionConfigFile >> "MyDialogClassName"

 

 

Then after your edits save it the same way you would do when creating your first dialog.
