Hey all, does anyone know of a plug in I cant download that will allow for small comments made by npc's to pop up as a small borderless text, remain for a short amount of time, then disappear?

I've tried Galv's message styles and I am using it, however doesn't really work for the particular usage I have in mind. Namely I need something that wont interupt the Show Text Event command. For example, say the player is having a conversation using the typical show text command with an NPC, and I want another NPC to have small off-to-the-side comments that the player can see while the normal dialogue is going on.

I am using RPG maker mv

EDIT: Something that shows the small text near the npc speaking is also a big detail that I'm looking for.

Yanfly should have a plug-in that lets you have pop-up messages on the top of the screen. I don't know which one but if you search their list they should have one that does this.

@deveras111 @bgillisp I think you're referencing Yanfly's Gab Window. That continues during text messages, but it's not a "small" borderless text (at least not by default...it's thin and borderless, yes, but it stretches across the screen. I don't know if there are settings to change this, so...worth a look). It does allow "side chatter"...or "gab" to appear while moving around the map in short dialogues that do disappear after a short amount of time, so it fits the bill somewhat well.

I looked it up, and although it does fit the criteria, another big thing on the chekclist i neglected to mention is ideally I would like the text to appear near the npc.

Hello! I would like to know if there are any pluggings or any way to customize how battles look?
I was thinking that when you start the battle for it to appear the eyes of your characters and opponents sorta like Ace Attorney.
Sadly I don't know how that would be possible so I would be needing help! If you can help me in any way I would really apreciate it!
The biggest debate we need to complete on which is better, Waffles or Pancakes?
