In the midst of working on my conversation cutscene setups, etc. I just noticed my typewriter effect is not working. I have added the Unity UI Typewriter Effect to my text GO in my canvas, but the words just come up all at once.

TyperWriter Effect:


Cutscene Entity:


Dialog Manager:

Hi,

The subtitle text GameObject appears to be named "Message Text (1)". Does this mean you duplicated the original "Message Text"? If so, is something maybe not hooked up (e.g., the subtitle panel's Subtitle Text field)?

Are you using UI Text or TextMesh Pro? If you're using TextMesh Pro, please use a TextMeshProTypewriterEffect instead of UnityUITypewriterEffect.

Another possibility is that the subtitle is ending immediately. This could happen if you're issuing a "continue" by clicking the continue button or using a Continue Conversation clip in Timeline.

Seems my issue was the TextMesh typerwriter effect not being used. Thanks!

Thanks for the update. I'm glad you found the issue.
