Hi again!

[seanver]

Glad to see you again. Well, how can I show the credits that appear in resistance intro? You know, the blue words like "Project leader" and the normal words with the name.

[zsa_zsa_rasputin]

I THINK the things you are after are in the normal "Effects" section of a trigger...?

Whereas by default the trigger selects none you can choose things like TEXT (Obvious), OBJECTS (Like the binocular view, etc), and RESOURCES...

I THINK what you're after is in the resources section, but then I could be misinterpretting what exactly you're after.

Hope this helps ANYWAY  

Dan  ;D

I have found nothing there, only the credits that appear on the right of the screen. Anyway I obsiously want to create my own credits, not the originals, and it looks like that in Resources you can only put the original ones.

 :cheers:You can do what I think you are saying in a script or a trigger.  In a script using TitleText command.  In a trigger using the effects tab text message and type away.  As for changing the color of the text not sure you can do it or not. :cheers:

All i can say that it's done through the description.ext and it was actually posted in the old forum in advance section, but now all is gonne so we'll have to dig everything up again, cheers

[seanver]

So at least is what I want possible?

[Navy_Seals]

Yes it is, how do u think BIS did it?!  
U can try to DePbo the campaign and look at the first mission, search for description.ext and other useful stuff, but i haven't done so myself only because im really low on HD space,

its all there under templates in the effects section -

they didnt use any type of text it was just an overlay (like the binoculars) which had text on - thats how they made pretty credits.

try this

class RscPicture
{
type=0;
idc=-1;
style=48;
colorBackground[]={0,0,0,0};
colorText[]={1,1,1,1};
font="tahomaB24";
size=0;
};

class RscTitles
{
class showyou
{
idd=-1;
movingEnable=0;
duration=4;
name="name in the trigger";

controls[]={"pic1"};
class pic1: RscPicture
{
text="picturefilename.paa";
x=0.750000;
y=0.000000;
w=0.300000;
h=1.000000;
};

};
titles[]={"showyou"};
};
