Arma 3 Editor | Adding Text to Mission on a Trigger

[@steveembelton8799]

Thanks for this tutorial. Much appreciated. Learned something also about trigger height. It is a shame there is nothing that can be done to have the message remain a little longer on the screen before fading.

Check out some of my other tutorials, there are other ways to do similar things

Hello! I know this is an old video but, may I ask how to make the texts smaller font size and add a delay before it disappear? Also, I noticed that the longer texts message are, the more it wont entirely shows up! Sorry for my broken english! I hope you will respond soon!

[@WithTwoFlakes]

I previously believed the limit on the text length was 21 characters from my own experience testing this, whether upper case, lower case, numerics, space, etc. But watching your video, at 4:21 we can see the text "are and subscribe for more" which I guess is missing the "sh" from share. That is nevertheless showing 26 characters, so I'm not sure how you managed that....

another great tutorial!

[@StormHarbakk]

When i press enter after i wrote the script, it just says: On Activation: Type Script, Expected Nothing. Any ideas on how to fix it?

[@OnlineCombatBN]

Try not pressing enter. Click ok, then run the mission. If you have the code correct, it should work when you run it. Do you have it activated by a trigger?

[@StormHarbakk]

@@OnlineCombatBN tried not pressing enter, the same result

[@OnlineCombatBN]

What is it exactly that you are typing in?

[@StormHarbakk]

["PLACE YOUR","TEXT HERE"] spawn BIS_fnc_infoText; then it says On Activation: Type Script, Expected Nothing.

[@OnlineCombatBN]

Ill make you a sample mission for download that you can copy the code and triggers from.

[@rodrigoglowacki]

Don't work for me

[@OnlineCombatBN]

Then you missed something.

[@OfficialOnwBanda]

thanks

Text doesn't stay on screen long enough to be useful IMO.

[@OnlineCombatBN]

Then use another method. I have other text display tutorials.

[@hook86]

@@OnlineCombatBN I'm all ears on that, anything that can extend the time this text displays? I like that effect besides that
