Post by gammaker95 »

Is it possible to make dialogue that displays texts like any messenger chatting log(ex skype, telegram etc.)?

Yes. Technically, your dialogue UI can do anything since the Dialogue System is modular. You can provide your own code and the Dialogue System will work happily with it.

However, if you want to use the built-in Unity UI Dialogue UI implementation, take a look at the Conversation Log Dialogue UI on the Dialogue System Extras page. It's under the UIs section, 4th button down.

The original post is several years old. This is now built into the Dialogue System. You don't need to use this conversation log example. To get something that looks the same but better:

1. Assign this dialogue UI prefab to your Dialogue Manager: Plugins / Pixel Crushers / Dialogue System / Prefabs / Standard UI Prefabs / Pro / Runic / Runic Standard UI Dialogue UI.

2. On the Dialogue Manager, tick Show PC Subtitles With Line, and untick Skip PC Subtitles After Response Menu.
