This seems like a topic that is halfway between troubleshooting and a script request, so I wasn't sure where to put it, but here we are. :uhm:

I like this Scrolling Message System Ex script, but not because of it's core functionality. I'd really like to grab these features, which I haven't seen anywhere else:

  • Bold and Italic: Self-explanatory (\b and \i)

  • Face: A small graphic is shown inside the message (\face[file])

  • Name Box: Text is shown in a small window above message (\name[text])

  • Font change: Change the font name or font size (\font[fontname,fontsize])

  • Conditional Text: Show the text if condition is met (\if[etc] or unless[etc])


...especially Name Box and Font Change, but I don't really have any interest in the rest.
(The Scrolling and Letter by Letter features are the most offensive. The other \whatever codes can just be ignored if I don't want to use them.)

I thought to try pulling out the good stuff, myself, but it's a bit more complex than I'm able to handle, at the moment. :^_^':

There are plenty of other message systems out there. A well-known one is Ccoa's UMS: http://save-point.org/thread-2394.html
I think most of the features are configurable, meaning you can enable/disable things like letter by letter.
