Show Player Name in Text Field?

Post by Hereder »

Hi!
I wonder if there is a way to Shot the players name in the dialogue field? All NPC's name show up and I can change the color of the name in the Dialoge Actor Inspector. (Image attached) but my Players name won't show up like the others...
Any idea why that is?

Hi,

It looks like you may have configured the dialogue UI to show the NPC's name by ticking the NPC Subtitle Panel's 'Add Speaker Name' checkbox. If so, tick the same checkbox on the PC Subtitle Panel.

Ys, that solved it. I didnt have a "default PC panel. So I put my Players panel there and then ticked "show name".
Howver, no other NPC have that box ticked, but thier names show up anyway. I think its baucese of the settings I have ON the Dialoge Actor Inspector where I can pick color etc... Anyway, it works now!
