[Resolved] Problem formatting a script

[Denko]

I found a script on a Japanese website that puts a shadow around certain battle text text to make it more readable. The problem is, I don't know how to use it. Here's a screenshot of what it does.

And here's the script.

That script requires edits to replace draw_text calls with draw_frame_text or draw_shadow_text. If you have no clue on scripting, I suggest my Font Addons script. It's very easy to use, and requires no replacing anything.

 

[Denko]

Well there's a problem. I can't find where you say how to use it...
What do I put in to make outlining a default?

 

[Yeyinde]

It's very easy. To have all text with an outline, just put Font.default_outline = true in Main.

 

[Denko]

Thanks Yeyinde. It works great.
