ChancellorKremlin Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Does anybody know what the limit for a message being displayed through an activator is in the GECK? I've got a relatively sizeable body of text across 3 paragraphs I want to display, (1053 characters) but I've noticed if I add the 3rd paragraph, the game crashes if I use the activator while playing, though the GECK saves and gives no errors. If I trim it down to 818 it seems to work though. I'm guessing maybe 1000? EDIT: Works with 994, so I'm guessing 1000.
nyaalich Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 You're talking about a pop-up menu sort of message? EDIT: Not that I know. Just trying to understand.
ChancellorKremlin Posted June 18, 2014 Author Posted June 18, 2014 I am indeed. EDIT: Seems to be 1000, as it works with 994 characters.
nyaalich Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Not that I have to tell you this, but have people check it to make sure that it's pretty easy to read on-screen. Scrolling sucks. X P
t3589 Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Message Box? Maybe a continue button and split them up?

nyaalich Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Gotta say...you're the one who brought it up, CK. You tell me.
ChancellorKremlin Posted June 18, 2014 Author Posted June 18, 2014 It will fit. If it doesn't, I'll find a way
ChancellorKremlin Posted June 18, 2014 Author Posted June 18, 2014 Erm... yes, that's *exactly* what I'm talking about...
