Being as i am adding voice and subtitles into the game..
Is there a way i can make the text change to the next text without the need of pressing Enter.
To time it to match the sounds that are being injected
-
There is a function for it. Look at the script of the scenes where Cloud's mysterious past unfolds.
-
You have to use the "wait" opcode - and the "close window" opcodes. And scripts. It's all got to be done manually for every single box, basically. Every box will have to use a "wait" - and if one is longer than another, you'll need to add a few different waits. One for 2 seconds, one for 3, and so on.
It's a colossal amount of work to do for the whole game and not really feasible.
-
I might give it a go, im subbing every box anyway so im already there
-
The real problem is testing. The testing stage is always a nightmare. Each change you make has to be checked and so on.
-
Yeah, i actually have a plan for that, im making a kickstarter project once i have the trailer ready to try fund some of the actors and supply better equipment, Some of the rewards are beta testing so ill have help too

This can be dangerous. Since you try to get money from third it won't be a non-profit project anymore and SE has the opportunity to close the project (and they will do it, because to keep the competition low by the old game).
-
Its ... ahh crap your probably right
-
I have stated on the page that is non profit though. I have no intention of keeping anything from it. It's all for equipment and wages of the cast..What would happen if i was to message SE about it?

They will forbid it since it is thier big horse. Make a professional voice-over for a YouTube project so you may get good actors for the main and support characters. For the NPCs it would be enough to have some engaged people who do it for free.
Again SE has high interest to have the current game at it current state. They have bothered to retranslate FFVI but refused to do the same for FFVII, which does need it most.
-
That's because it's easy to retranslate VI. VII has so much more dialogue it's unreal. Any time real effort is required, Square-Enix disappear faster than a fart in the wind.
-
Well back on topic anyway, You can make a window close after x amount of seconds and open the next one, but is there a way to make it move onto the the "Next Page" itself?
Like in MR sometimes it will say next page because the line is too long.
Or do i have to avoid this by making a ton of new boxes instead?
-
Yeah, you'll have to have many different boxes instead of next pages. I don't think it's possible to make a next page automatically.
-
That's fine. I'm doing that now anyway.
