spinal	I'm struggling to decide if the glasses should match the sprite, or be more clear... I think clear glasses.... -=-=- Check out my excellent homepage!

Jayenkai	Hmm... I think I prefer the transparent lenses..

cyangames	Very nicely made!

steve_ancell	Clear glasses seem more natural looking on the character.

spinal	Not sure at all about intersection of dialogue screens and such. I'll just try a bunch of stuff and see if anything works. -=-=- Check out my excellent homepage!

Jayenkai	Haven't read the code, and am basing things on what normally happens when I try to do a similar thing.. (which, coincidentally, I'm currently doing for Lyrics in VidGen!) Once you're at the end of scanning for words, your current-word usually has the last word still waiting to get parsed, because you haven't reached a " " after it. Either add an extra " " to the end of the string, so that it knows there's a last word there, or alternatively copy+paste your display code at the end of the loop, to flush out that final word. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

spinal	I wish I had the motivation to sit down and work on this solid for a few hours, but checking the fridge and going and seein if my phone is finished charging seem more important to my brain Anyway, I have no idea how to transition in and out of the dialogue scene, any suggestions?

Jayenkai	I don't think you need one going in, from the menu, that seemed ok. But between the game and the dialogue it is kinda jarring. How about a simple fade-to-black. Though, I don't think B3D can do that easily, can it? Hmmm.. OK, how about "teeth"? Graphics 512,512,1 Repeat CLS 160,160,160;ResetDraw if GamePad(ButtonA)>0.5 and transition==0 then transition=1 if transition>0 transition=transition+1 if transition>=(ScreenHeight()3)/32 then transition=0 SetCol 0,0,0 n=0 for x=0 to ScreenWidth() step 32 if n==0 then Rect x,(0-ScreenHeight()2)+(Transition32),33,ScreenHeight()2 if n==1 then Rect x,(ScreenHeight())-(Transition32),33,ScreenHeight()2 n=1-n next endif Flip Forever --v -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

spinal	Here is something I tried on the arduboy a while back, using a set of 1bit dithered tiles... View on YouTube I think it works ok. Although I should work on the speed a little. -=-=- Check out my excellent homepage!

spinal	Well, that's more than a little frustrating! I made sure to use character count to detect line breaks and still, for some reason, this happens! The box is always 24 characters wide... something aint correct somewhere \|edit\| Well, this is just silly. -=-=- Check out my excellent homepage!

Jayenkai	Is it.. 1. Something to do with the fact that the text is misaligned, and starting at 3 instead of 1. You might be overrunning by a couple of characters because of that. 2. That the counter starts at 1, not 0. You might be overrunning by 1 character because of that. 3. That the "^" IS being detected, but that you're seeing the "^", where normally you wouldn't.. If that were a space, it wouldn't be an issue. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

spinal	Oh, wait, I'm way over thinking this. 1. It's Blitz, I don't have a seperate render loop, so I don't need to be able to leave the function and return to it, I can just stay there until it's done. 2. I did a reasonable well working word wrapper for my watch that time... -=-=- Check out my excellent homepage!
