help with text box? (kirikiri2)

[kudaratan]

Hey, it's me again! I'm working with the Prince Pia Carrot PC version demo and I can't quite figure out how to get the text to work properly.

 

First of all, it only takes up half of the entire box.

 

 

The font size is also quite big, as you can see. Might be hard to fit more complex sentences in. That's a lower priority, though.

 

Second of all, I don't know how to get it to wordwrap. I've tried both the Nagato and insani methods, but "class KAGWindow extends Window", HistoryLayer.tjs, and MessageLayer.tjs don't exist. Here's the data.xp3 if anyone would like to take a look--the rest of the info is divided into archives like 'game01.xp3'.

Thanks again in advance!

At the top of the file, around line 14, just add 2 lines:

 

scFONTSIZE = 18;

scDRAWMAX = 90;

 

The font size speaks for itself, set it to whatever you like best. DRAWMAX is the maximum number of characters per line. 100 was too big in general, 90 works nicely for me, but it does depend on the actual line you're writing. So if you hit some weirdness with it, you can take the number down a bit.

 

Optionally, do a ctrl+f for "wnd.add(MessLayer" and change pxMESTEXT into some other number. This alters the x position of the text, so you can move it more to the left and cut down on that big empty left column if you want to. I set it to 35. If you do change this, change the y value just after it as well.

 

To add line wrapping on space, go to line 1784 (with an unedited file), and change the line

if((MessArray[inx] == "／") || (draw_cnt == scDRAWMAX))

into

if((MessArray[inx] == "／") || ((draw_cnt >= scDRAWMAX) && MessArray[inx] == " "))

 

and also change the line just below it

if(MessArray[inx] == "／"){ ++inx; }

into

if(MessArray[inx] == "／" || MessArray[inx] == " "){ ++inx; }

 

That'll cause the line to go over scDRAWMAX until it finds a space, and then it'll newline.

 

With all the changes I made, this is how it looks in-game (it's all one really big line):

Thank you very much! It works beautifully until I get to the line right after the one in myscreenshot above, though. I'm not certain why.

 

 

This happens and I have to quit the game. I don't get why. The line isn't even different.

As soon as I entered I was greeted by a tall waiter, who guided me to a seat by the window.

[talk name=心の声]

The name tag on his chest said, "Manager: Kinoshita Kuon".

[hitret]

 

[talk name=心の声]

Still young and a manager. Impressive.

[hitret]

 

But it crashes on the "still young" line...

[Kelebek1]

Runs just fine for me...

 

Did you change the script and then load a save or something? Because I've found that causes errors. If it still crashes from starting a new game then I'm really not sure, because those 3 lines are alright for me. Upload your changed scenario file or something? Maybe even your compiled data as well.

[kudaratan]

Didn't load a save, I started a new game. Here's my compiled data.

And here's my changed scenario file.

[Kelebek1]

Ah ok, with that changed scenario I now get the crash. Will have to go through line by line and see what's causing it to happen I guess.

 

EDIT: Ok I narrowed down the error to the "But the classy cafe is gone now, and my dream along with it." line. Anything which doesn't contain the Japanese newline ／with 2 lines of text causes that crash. Very very odd. I think I need help from someone who knows kirikiri, because I really don't know why that happens.

 

EDIT2: Fixed it. Use these instead: https://www.mediafire.com/?14w632vw7s8mfa6

 

The scFONTSIZE and scDRAWMAX were defined in Constant.tjs. Which is weird, I searched for them but got no hits, I don't know why. But I changed them in the constants instead, and now it doesn't error. So yeah, try those 2 files instead and should all be fine now.

Thank you so much! Everything works absolutely perfectly now!
