Force Portrait

Post by Alatriste »

Hi,

I was wondering how could I force to display an actor portrait, even when its lines hasn't been delivered yet. Usually, I do it when the first line is triggered, but I have a special case where I'd like to display the actor before starts talking.

Hi,

The easy way without scripting is to give the actor a line, but make the text a blank space and the Sequence "Delay(0)".

Hi,

It actually works better with a "Continue()" instead than with the "Delay(0)", which still requires the player input.
But I got the effect I wanted! :)

Good catch. I forgot you're using a continue button.
