Actor's name on screen

[Diguito]

I would love if someone create a script for me. The only thing the script needs to do is show the actor's name on screen. I would like be able to choose the window's position such as it's colours and size.

 

I know I'm asking a very hard thing(or not, i'm not a scripter) but i really need this for my project and i'll be very thankful if someone help me.

Thank you for your attention and a huge high-five for those who will try do the scripts.

this is not hard to do at all xD this is rather simple ~

just need be more specific on the option you want?

there are already scripts that have that as an option, for example yanfly's message system script.

So guys, I just wanna be able to specify the font size and color each time I call it by script. Is this possible? Something like:

(x,y,size,color) and window's opacity as 0.  [sorry, I don't know anything abou scripts]

 

ahh, just another thing..is possible to show more than one name at once..?

 

@Edit: I forgot to say, it has to be on "parallel process" I mean, can't stop the game while shows the name.(The player have to be able to move the character)...

If you're using a HUD, you neither need a script nor a parallel process. Just make it a picture and use show picture using screen coordinates - the picture will remain until you erase it or you go to a different map.


DO NOT USE a parallel process for this, it will either break your game or cause too much lag.


Parallel processes are NOT for map displays, they have other functions

I have a better idea of a way to do this, use a message script to customize the message box however you want, type the char name in it. Then go into test mode, and take a SS of the customized message box, with the char name in it. After that crop out everything but the name/custom message box in a art program, then just use show picture in the game to display it.

PS. OMG I love Yanfly's message script, is there no end to all the great things you can do with it

I think I find out a script that may help me, anyway, thanks everyone that comment, you are great =D. And guys, had to be a script, because the player can change his name, so there's no way I could make it by image, and as I said, I have to put on a specific X and Y for screen, so message wouldn't help either. And thanks everyone again   bye

Ok, glad you found a script that does what you want.

However with that said, I strongly suggest you be more detailed in the future, as to what exactly a script/feature must actually do(You didn't mention that the names of char aren't fixed).
