| Hey there all. For a recent game im working on ive been pondering how to put word balloonsin my cutscenes. The game has an overall cartoon feel to it so it seemed fitting. These resizeable bubbles would read dialogue from an array or file aswell as possibly change shape (IE: thought vs. speeking ones). Thanks for any input. |

| So, you want to get an idea of how to create the balloon so that it can resize... Well, given a texture image of a balloon at its smallest size, divided into three-by-three sections-- the middle sections need to stretch, while the corners are kept their original size. Here are a couple of useful code references... http://www.blitzbasic.com/codearcs/codearcs.php?code=331 http://www.blitzbasic.com/codearcs/codearcs.php?code=529 |
