I was away from MSN earlier, I missed your IM.

This seems to be mainly done in the description.ext file using RSC scripting.

If you have the Davidian mission you can take a look at that. If you don't here is the description.ext file from it:

so in the text field you put the name of the jpg, i guess it just reads the images you have in your pbo after that....now if i could only figure out how to make whole paragraphs. the words don't wrap around, they get cut off. i want to make a paragraph of text. i managed to pull off the custom image but for what i was trying to pull off i need large bodies of text in this thing. any suggestions on making the words wrap?

Here's an example;

[size="1"]};

 class Escape
 {
     idd=-1;
     movingEnable=0;
     duration=4;
     name="Escape";
     controls[]={"Text","picture"};


     class Text : Rsctext
     {
       style="16 + 512";
       lineSpacing=1.000000;
       text="Blah blah blah blah blah.\nblah blah blah blah\nblah blah blah blah";
       x=0.050000;
       y=0.70000;
       w=0.900000;
       h=0.500000;
       colorText[]={1,1,1,1};
       font="Couriernewb64";
       sizeEx=0.030000;
       size = 0.4;
     };

     class picture: RscPicture
     {
        text="general.jpg";
        x=0.10000;
        y=0.550000;
        w=0.0750000;
        h=0.10000;
     };[/size]

This places three lines of text at the bottom-left of the screen, with a picture centred just above it. The line breaks are done with \n just like a hintbox. But you can only do this when the 'style' is defined as above (it's one of those numbers, not sure which).

EDIT

That is within the RscTitles section.
