Voice acting?

[EtphTheElephant]

Is it possible to somehow make a character speak while their dialogue is being displayed?

Create the sound file that has the dialogue spoken. Import the sound file (.ogg probably recommended) to, I would say, sound effects (not at my computer to see ACE's Folders). When you interact with the event, have it set something like this:


PLAY SE: Dialogue1


Show Text:


"I hope this helps."


If you have more than one page you want to have spoken at one time, obviously you would just repeat this pattern. I hope this helps.


EDIT: By page, I mean Text Box

I am using voiceacting in my own game.

I had many friends helping me with their voices, so it doesn't sound the same over and over.

What you can do, as I did, is try to match as well pauses in the voiceact inside the text, using the pause commands (\| for one second or \. for a quarter of second).

Thank you both

How do you find out those pause commands, and how can you tell the system where to pause each speech part? Or did I read that wrong?

If you hover over the textbox where you type in your dialogue, a window should appear showing you all the available commands.

Screenshot in case you cannot get it to appear:
