would be the best if you post the scripts which are troubling you.

Ah. Yes, yes - of course!
(Just how could I forget that?)
Okay, this is the Talkscript, it's attached to the actor:

Code: WME Script

1. method Talk(Inhalt,Notiz,Stimmung)
2. {
3.  
4.         // load the window
5.         var dlgWindow = Game.LoadWindow("interface/talk/norm1.window");
6.  
7.         // fill in the required dialog properties
8.         dlgWindow.Inhalt = "text";
9.         dlgWindow.Stimmung = "normal"; // the name of the main window
10.         dlgWindow.Notiz = "note";
11.  
12.         // init the window and start the text display
13.         dlgWindow.ApplyEvent("Reden");
14.  
15.         // this is crucial, it will pause this script until the window closes
16.         dlgWindow.GoExclusive();
17.  
18.         // we're done, unload
19.         Game.DeleteWindow(dlgWindow);
20. }

And that's the window script:

Code: WME Script

1. #include "scripts\base.inc"
2. #include "scripts\keys.inc"
3.  
4. // the other script wants us to do the magic
5. on "Reden"
6. {
7.   // notice that you can access the properties passed by the original script using this.SomeProperty notation
8.  
9.         var laune;
10.         if (this.Stimmung == null) laune = "norm1";
11.         else laune = Stimmung;
12.        
13.         var text1 = this.Inhalt;
14.         var note1 = this.Notiz;
15.  
16.         //this.SetImage("ui_elements/talk/"+laune+".png");
17.         this.SetImage("ui_elements/talk/norm1.png");
18.  
19.         var textbox = this.GetControl(Game.ExpandString(text1));
20.         var notebox = this.GetControl(Game.ExpandString(note1));
21.                
22.         notebox.Text = "";
23.         textbox.Text = "";
24.         var lettera = new String(text1);
25.         for (var i = 0; i < lettera.Length; i = i + 1)
26.         {
27.                 textbox.Text = textbox.Text + lettera.Substr(i, 1);
28.                 Sleep(50);
29.         }
30.                
31.         var letterb = new String(note1);
32.         for (var j = 0; j < letterb.Length; j = j + 1)
33.         {
34.                 notebox.Text = notebox.Text + letterb.Substr(j, 1);
35.                 Sleep(50);
36.         }
37. }

Alright, changed it, thank you, metamorphium. :>

[metamorphium]

this is strange!

Code: WME Script

1. var textbox = this.GetControl(Game.ExpandString(text1));
2. var notebox = this.GetControl(Game.ExpandString(note1));
3.  

Are you sure your window has such a components?

Just next to it you call:

Code: WME Script

1. var lettera = new String(text1);
2.         for (var i = 0; i < lettera.Length; i = i + 1)
3.         {
4.                 textbox.Text = textbox.Text + lettera.Substr(i, 1);
5.                 Sleep(50);
6.         }
7.                
8.         var letterb = new String(note1);
9.         for (var j = 0; j < letterb.Length; j = j + 1)
10.         {
11.                 notebox.Text = notebox.Text + letterb.Substr(j, 1);
12.                 Sleep(50);
13.         }
14.  

Where you treat note1 and text1 as strings?

I bet you need to use GetControl with a proper window component name.

 

[Ryouko]

Oh, damn.
I knew I would make such a stupid mistake today. /headdesk
I accidentally changed the GetControl to the ExpandedString instead of the lettera/letterb variable. x_X
Okay, it looks like this now:

Code: WME Script

1. #include "scripts\base.inc"
2. #include "scripts\keys.inc"
3.  
4. // the other script wants us to do the magic
5. on "Reden"
6. {
7.   // notice that you can access the properties passed by the original script using this.SomeProperty notation
8.  
9.         var laune;
10.         if (this.Stimmung == null) laune = "norm1";
11.         else laune = Stimmung;
12.        
13.         var text1 = this.Inhalt;
14.         var note1 = this.Notiz;
15.  
16.         //this.SetImage("ui_elements/talk/"+laune+".png");
17.         this.SetImage("ui_elements/talk/norm1.png");
18.  
19.         var textbox = this.GetControl("text");
20.         var notebox = this.GetControl("note");
21.                
22.         notebox.Text = "";
23.         textbox.Text = "";
24.         var lettera = new String(Game.ExpandString(text1));
25.         for (var i = 0; i < lettera.Length; i = i + 1)
26.         {
27.                 textbox.Text = textbox.Text + lettera.Substr(i, 1);
28.                 Sleep(50);
29.         }
30.                
31.         var letterb = new String(Game.ExpandString(note1));
32.         for (var j = 0; j < letterb.Length; j = j + 1)
33.         {
34.                 notebox.Text = notebox.Text + letterb.Substr(j, 1);
35.                 Sleep(50);
36.         }
37. }

So, the variables note1 and text1 are supposed to store the information (the text) given to the parameters Notiz and Inhalt in the method.
Current problem is:

Code: [Select]

00:15: Compiling script 'interface\talk\norm1.script'...
00:15:   Error@line 11: Variable 'Stimmung' is referenced but not defined
Thank you for your help, I really overlooked it.

[Ryouko]

HURRAY! <3

Solved it. :>

Forgot the "this" in

Code: WME Script

1. "laune = this.Stimmung"

And, of course, it's gotta be

Code: WME Script

1. dlgWindow.Inhalt = Inhalt;

and so on.

I believe I'll be fine from here on.

Thank you both very much - I'm a beginner and really slow when it comes to logic and scripting, but thanks to you I managed to get my textbox and I learned a lot from it! =)
You're both amazing, thank you for your patience! <3
