[SOLVED] Narration dialogue

domx

Hi again,

I am trying to get narration working for my game. This includes:

- sequence of lines and speech, taking advantage of AC's conversation system capabilities and localization

- shown with a custom gui (different from normal dialogues between characters)

- delivered by a character that has no representation in the scene

And the questions are:

1. Can I create a secondary dialogue gui to be used in mutual exclusion with the normal dialogue gui? How would it be best to setup this and would I be able to switch between using AC's actions (or is it only available via scripts)?

2. If I want to use the dialogue system, can I use it without a character or do I need a placeholder object for the narrator?

cheers!

If you run the "Dialogue: Play speech" Action without a Character, it'll still work, but you won't be able to play audio.  It's simple enough to use a GameObject with an NPC script as a placeholder, though.

You can switch between Dialogue Menus by locking and unlocking the appropriate ones using the "Menu: Change state" Action.

Figured it'd be something crafty. Thanks Chris!
