[closed] How to make my own gui.show_story
Hi,
Shows a 1) text and background, text has that golden bar/line above
-----------2) when no background is given it shows a text on black background WITHOUT THAT GOLDEN BAR/LINE!!!
An I'd like to display text WITH background, but WITHOUT golden bar/line . . .
How to do so?
How to show a message/narration WITHOUT that golden bar/line?
Code: Select all
gui.show_story

The story screen is even more complicated than the narration dialog, so I think reimplementing it with
gui.show_dialog
is a very bad idea. You're welcome to try it if you really want to, but you're almost certainly going to end up with something inferior to the original.- ZombieKnight

Re: How to make my own gui.show_story
I thought I could just put true in that if, that says if theres a golden line or not...
Okay I'm sticking with the default one

You could try to make the background as ASCII art, then it wouldnt show the gold bar.

There's a lot of functionality built in to the story screen that you would have to reimplement yourself if you wanted to alter its appearance.ZombieKnight wrote: ↑March 23rd, 2024, 5:25 pm I thought I could just put true in that if, that says if theres a golden line or not...

If so ... if there are coverters, shouldn't be a big deal.

Answer: just make shroud, cinematic theme + dialog(though you can't move back or skip it now).
