    • Desc Display in game

      I was wondering if it is possible to increase the size of the Desc display (for lack of a better term) for mission intros, breifings, cargo messages, ect?

      Would be nice because for what I am creating because it has ALOT of description and dialogue. 🙂

      Welcome to the board! Hmm...looking at your question, it is definietely related to plug developing. I suggest you check the Developers Corner.

      Just checked your web site. There is already an United Earth in EVO. You could change it to Earth Confederacy or United Confederacy.

      It is possible; Macavenger did it in a plug he never released. But I haven't seen him in months, so, yeah, the Developer's Corner is a good place to ask.

      It's possible if you mess around with the window sizes of mission dialog boxes. (you can get these resources from the EV application itself). Though an easier solution I think would be to use the nova engine with the EV port to Nova, then your mission dialog boxes will have scroll buttons, so your text can be any size.

      I'm moving this to the Dev board, as it does belong there and anyone else who wants to comment there can.
