To Samot: Your Message Back Script [*Request Finished*]

[Kain Nobel]

I lost the topic you posted this on, and I'm too lazy to search, but it works great! :thumb:

I even made a real quick simple module for you, be sure to read the instructions in the script :shades:

module Samot module Msg_Back
  Enabled     = true
  Image       = "Message_Back"
  Opacity     = 220
  Transition  = 5
end end

Quick update, now fades the image in and out. In this spot, just change Transition = 5 to whatever you want it to be, I think 5 is a pretty nice number though.
