message entity help?

[Nighthawk_0973]

I created a message entity with a trigger and everything, and then I got it to work (the trigger being one shot) and it displayed the message perfectly but once I was seeing the message it didn't dissapear!

I set the message to a small block in the middle of a room right next to where the players spawn. Even moving away from it didn't work. I'm using RFEditPro and RF076 (without the patch. Does that matter. I just forgot to do it.)

I'm using RFEditPro and RF076 (without the patch. Does that matter.

Of course it matters, patches are not issued without a good reason. That patch clears up a few bugs.

OK so I had the patch files overwrite my current RF files (therefore installing correctly) but the same thing happened.

Can someone help me with this I really want it to work!!!

The rftechv1 demo level demonstrates the usage of the message entity. If it still doesn't work for you post the (complete) settings of the trigger enttiy, the message entity and the message type in message.ini you are using.

I got it to work now

I originally set the 'trigger name' to 'Trigger1' and than set the Trigger for the message to 'Trigger1'. I'll have to work with it some time when I feel like doing taking a break from my MMO.
