Text Box Help?

[Sylver]

So...I'm nearly done with my game. And I'm really excited. I have everything how I want it. Now I'm going back through adding in the needed text stuff. Upon starting I discovered that the text box doesn't look the way it does in MV. Even when I use a windowskin...So I know I sound stupid but, how do I make my textbox stop looking like this:



and more like the VX Ace text box that looks like this:


I don't need the bust or faceset feature, I just need a nametag and the longer stretched out textbox. thank you in advance.


(No these images aren't mine I found them online to use as an example.)

That's not the normal VXAce text box actually.
I believe what the developer did in this case was instead of using a windowskin, they used the Show Picture command to show their "windowskin".

You could also use a script to stretch the text window. ccoa's UMS can do this.

Bless you so much. If it wasn't too much trouble do you know how to use the script...I've never used one.

The easiest way is to download the demo project and copy the script from that project to your own. The demo project also includes a document with a very thorough explanation of all the things the script can do.

Let me know if you need more help.
