When in cinematic mode if I have a relatively long piece of text it will get cut off from the dialogue box. I did a quick search and found no resources which I thought was strange because seems like it could be a common problem. What do you guys usually do in situations like this? Do you just chunk up the dialogue into two transmissions? I'm using a sound file and I'd prefer not to have to cut it in half just to accommodate the text length.

  • Cinematic - Turn cinematic mode On for (Player group(mPlayer[PlayerCount]))
  • Cinematic - Send transmission to (Player group(mPlayer[PlayerCount])) from Horace Portman 0119 <gen> named Horace Portman: Play horace_portman <gen> and display Greetings, Knight o.... Modify duration: Set to 38.00 seconds and Wait
  • Cinematic - Turn cinematic mode Off for (Player group(mPlayer[PlayerCount]))

Greetings, Knight of the Radiant Dawn. I must say, it's a surprise to see someone of your stature here at Harbor's End Ferry Terminal. Fresh off a long journey, I hope you're ready for another task at hand. A group of vicious bandits has taken hold of the nearby woods and is causing chaos for trade here at our harbor. I can no longer stand idly by and watch them wreak havoc. I need a seasoned warrior like you to take down some of their minions and their infamous leader, Bane Bloodfang, and put an end to their reign of terror.

Are you up for this challenge? Can you restore peace to our harbor by ridding the woods of the bandit menace?
