In the megaman games, when text appears on the screen, instead of just appearing already written in the box, you see it get typed out once the box appears. In RMXP the text is already there when the box appears. I need this different style so the person is waiting to read what the box says or in other words, to add suspense (if that makes sense :) ). If anyone can make this, you will be my hero and I love you long time.

Maybe if you posted a screenshot from one of the Megaman games, it will aide potential helpers.

I believe what he's asking for is a difference in how the text in the box appears. Currently, all of the text in the box appears as soon as the text box appears on screen. What he wants is a script for the box to appear without words in it, then for the letters to be typed in, one at a time, similar to a typewriter.

Kind of like Ccoa's UMS's one letter at a time feature??

Unless you want to register an account yourself. I don't know any better area to download ccoa's UMS considering she took it down a long time ago over at RRR.

What's osu!? It's a rhythm game. Thought I should have a signature with a working rank. ;P It's now clickable!
Still Aqua's biggest fan (Or am I?).

Yeah, and you'll find the most recent version there too ... v1.6.2 I believe.
