Spinor 0 Posted March 20, 2003 Just an idea (i.e. untested ): Add/remove linefeeds "\n" to your text, e.g. titleText["\n\n\nHello!","PLAIN"] ~0.1 titleText["\n\nHello!","PLAIN"] ~0.1 titleText["\nHello!","PLAIN"] ~0.1 titleText["Hello!","PLAIN"] ~0.1 titleText["Hello!\n","PLAIN"] etc. Maybe this will create the impression of scrolling text.

Winters 1 Posted March 20, 2003 Thanks Spinor, I think i can work with this, after all if i can get them to scroll across it shouldn't be much of a problem to adapt it to go up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest jacobaby Posted March 20, 2003 You dont need to test it, the reply above will work, just get the timing right. You can also do typewriter type effects. I used this for my COMPROMISED mission in the intro. You can get that from the avon ladys MOM and check it out. TJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
