Thanks for this, mate.

66292d84ab982

Thank you!

Very much appreciated.

66292d84abac7

Thanks a lot for this, man. Back when I played through SS2 the lack of subtitles made it a bit hard for me to get into the game (though I did manage to deal without). It's going to be a joy to replay this fantastic game with your mod.

how can i modify subtitle dim?
they are too small

66292d84abd81

you need to modify your cam_ext.cfg, see the subtitle readme.

//actually I think that will not help if size is what you are after - the easiest thing to do is to enable hud scaling, edit cam_ext.cfg and change

Code: [Select]

;d3d_disp_scaled_2d_overlay 64into

Code: [Select]

d3d_disp_scaled_2d_overlay 64

Yeah, the subtitles are displayed at the same size as all the other interface text, so if you can't read the subtitles, you have a bigger problem.

I've noticed these are providing subtitles to e-mails that are not included in strings. Examples:

Code: [Select]

multisub em0105 {
   { time 800 length 3300 text "Good, the sub-elevators should now be back online." }
   { time 5800 length 3400 text "I've opened up an access tunnel that can quickly get you to the elevator." }
   { time 9600 length 3500 text "Now get up to deck 4, I'll meet you there. Hurry." }

missing in level01.str

Code: [Select]

EmailName5:"POLITO 12.JUL.14\nre: Access tunnel\n"
EmailPortrait5:"Polito" 
EmailIcon5:"OpsIcon" 
EmailText5:"Good, the sub-elevators should now be back online. I've opened up an access tunnel that can quickly get you to the elevator. Now get up to deck 4, I'll meet you there. Hurry.\n"

or

Code: [Select]

multisub em0208 {   { time 500 length 3200 text "Your new cybernetic interface might be disorienting." }
   { time 4000 length 6900 text "I've uploaded detailed technical specs to info kiosks in your area, which will answer your questions about its usage." }
   { time 11400 length 3800 text "Certain areas of the ship require specific access cards for entry." }
   { time 15700 length 3900 text "Pick up the card near you and then activate the card slot by the door." }

missing in level02.str

Code: [Select]

EmailName8:"POLITO 12.JUL.14\nre: Access cards\n"
EmailPortrait8:"Polito"
EmailIcon8:"OpsIcon"
EmailText8:"Your new cybernetic interface might be disorienting. I've uploaded detailed technical specs to info kiosks in your area, which will answer your questions about its usage. Certain areas of the ship require specific access cards for entry. Pick up the card near you and then activate the card slot by the door.\n"

...and more
What's the story behind making these particular subtitles? Are the e-mails restorable? Any plans for that?

66292d84ac20c

Why, you say? Why not, I say.

66292d84ac32f

subs being displayed twice?

66292d84ac43b

Argh. Probably a map bug, but there is a flag that can be set in subtitles to suppress that sort of thing happening.

66292d84ac551

and definitely not a single occurrence: https://youtu.be/RvZLK5FCaJ4?t=30

66292d84ac6aa

Thanks you man, u are best

66292d84ac7d3

Snoyter: Thank you, man. You are the best.

66292d84ac954

Okay, I've fixed the duplicate Many subtitles issue. It was an oversight due Irrational sticking several of the Many's audio triggers under the emails section.

66292d84acb80

Hello I was looking into the vEmails subtitles and there are 2 parts that are almost the same, are they suposed to be equal?

Code: [Select]

multisub em0408 {
		{ time 1000 length 5000 text "You have accomplished much for a thing of such small consequence." }
		{ time 9300 length 11200 text "[Xerxes] Warning, data systems compromised. Hostile AI..." }
		{ time 20600 length 5400 text "Xerxes is diminished. I am accessing the primary data loop." }
		{ time 26700 length 3200 text "I am merging my entity with the ship." }
		{ time 30600 length 5200 text "My glory is expanding, filling the arteries of this vessel." }
		{ time 36500 length 7000 text "I am in control. I am..." }
		{ time 43700 length 8400 text "No... it is hopeless... the cancer has spread throughout the Von Braun." }
		{ time 52300 length 7400 text "They fill every available crack and crevice... they overwhelm..." }
		{ time 60000 length 7200 text "There is no option. I have activated the primary elevator shaft." }
		{ time 67800 length 6100 text "Take it to deck 6. I will tell you my wishes when you arrive." }

Code: [Select]

multisub em0506 {
		{ time 2200 length 4500 text "The transmission has been tampered with. No matter." }
		{ time 7400 length 5300 text "We will destroy my creations right here. Stand by..." }
		{ time 15900 length 11200 text "[Xerxes] Warning, data systems compromised. Hostile AI..." }
		{ time 28400 length 6000 text "I have weakened Xerxes. I am accessing the primary data loop." }
		{ time 35400 length 3200 text "I am merging my entity with the ship." }
		{ time 39200 length 5200 text "My glory is expanding, filling the arteries of this vessel." }
		{ time 45200 length 7000 text "I am in control. I am..." }
		{ time 52300 length 8400 text "No... it is hopeless... the cancer has spread throughout the Von Braun." }
		{ time 60900 length 7400 text "They fill every available crack and crevice... they overwhelm..." }
		{ time 68700 length 7200 text "There is no option. I have activated the primary elevator shaft." }
		{ time 76400 length 6100 text "Take it to deck 6. I will tell you my wishes when you arrive." }

66292d84acd08

other parts that have duplicate phrases, is it normall?

Code: [Select]

multisub em0509 {
		{ time 1300 length 8600 text "Your colleagues have managed to set up a transmitting station in the athletics sector of this deck." }
		{ time 10700 length 10300 text "The transmitter is intended to send a message to the Earth to warn them of the events that have occurred in this ship." }
		{ time 21600 length 8000 text "However, it will also draw power away from Xerxes, making him vulnerable to my will." }
		{ time 30200 length 6000 text "Once you do this, I will control the primary data loop." }
		{ time 36800 length 7000 text "The Annelids are unaware of its presence, but guard the area for their own purposes." }
		{ time 44900 length 3900 text "Find the transmitter and activate it." }

Code: [Select]

multisub em0511 {
		{ time 1300 length 9000 text "Your colleagues have managed to set up a transmitting station in the athletics sector of this deck." }
		{ time 10700 length 10400 text "The transmitter is intended to send a message to the Earth to warn them of the events that have occurred in this ship." }
		{ time 21600 length 5200 text "However, it will also draw power away from Xerxes." }
		{ time 27100 length 8900 text "Once you have done this and the tasks I've reserved for you on the Ops deck, I will be able to hobble Xerxes." }
		{ time 37300 length 4000 text "Find the transmitter and activate it." }

You can do Ops and Recreation out of order. So those are not duplicate emails, they're mutually exclusive.

You could have just listened to those WAV files and answered your own question.

66292d84add64

Thanks for this, I can finallt pump up the music and don't care about missing some voice clips

66292d84adf92

Is there a way to make subtitles look like on this screenshot I've found? Looks like much more readable than default thin letters.

With current mod state they appear with that font only in the "4 Years Earlier: Ramsey Recruitment Center." message at the very beginning.

66292d84ae0a0

The large font is much more readable, but I don't know if it would still be so clear when it was scaled smaller to the screen. An option to chose the side of the text would be a good idea, probably.

No. You're imagining this screenshot.

66292d84ae4b3

maybe try to put what you want and what you have side by side.
