Hi,

Yes, you can use the Dialogue System to make games like Choices. There are two typical ways to make animated portraits:

1. Animate the regular portrait images. (details)

2. Or use Spine. (details)

I recommend completing some of the basic Dialogue System tutorials first, starting with the Quick Start Tutorial. The video version of the Dialogue UI Tutorial covers animated portraits using method #1 above.

Thanks Tony

i have completed your tutorial videos. It's really good tutorial videos, but iam still confuse :lol:

1.In your tutorial video, all conversations use 1 text boxes. How do i make conversations with different text boxes. Can i make NPC have their own dynamic text boxes?

2. How do i make move animation run in 2s when i use [panel=2]?

3. Do you have example package similar to choices game? so i can learn from it.

Yes. Add a Dialogue Actor component to the NPC's GameObject and set its Dialogue UI Settings > Subtitle Panel Number, or use the [panel=#] markup tag.

You can use sequencer commands. (See the Cutscene Sequences Tutorials.) For example:

Code: Select all

AnimatorPlay(Talking, NPC Portrait Image)@2

The Dialogue System Extras page has a Choose Your Own Adventure package. It's not exactly what you're looking for, and it doesn't have portrait images, but it's something to look at to experiment with Dialogue System features.
