hey so i really don't like magic mouths and the big bubbles they make. Because of that i want to learn how to do subtitles. ive looked in the tools etc part of the poppit and there isnt anything there for it. also i tried checking the "subtitles" thing on the magic mouths and it STILL has the bubbles. So, then i turned it on with logic and it STILL had the bubbles.... what am i missing? thanks ahead of time

What you are missing, I think, is movie cameras. If you select the movie (what used to be cut-scene) camera option in the magic mouth, then the subtitles should appear. Alternatively, if you put the magic mouth on a sequencer and overlap a movie camera in the same time span, the subtitles should show (providing the subtitles option has been checked in the magic mouth, of course). Hope this helps!

Erm... I don't think it's got anything to do with movie cameras - sorry vortex! What you need is a sequencer and a magic mouth. Put the magic mouth on the sequencer, tweak it and select subtitles!

It has to be on a sequencer and you have to enable subtitles in the settings(not only in the actual magic mouth but in the global settings for LBP).

Ah... no need to be sorry. I knew I'd gotten them working, but I thought it was camera based. I'm sure I must be using a sequencer then. Just glad we got the right answer to the OP. @ septamus112: Sorry if I sent you on a wild goose chase. does it have to be with a movie cam? because i just want the words to come on screen when it applies, but your still able to play Just FYI. You can use movie cams and still play. Just set the Disable Controllers = OFF. And if you want the full-screen, select Track Player = ON. This is also very effective for transitioning back to regular game camera mode after a cut scene (because the the transitions and times still apply).

That's some great advice! I had sussed the movie cam approach to using subtitles, but you've just opened up a whole range of cool tweaks for using movie cameras as cameras that I never even thought about! Thanks!

I hope they patch this at some point, it's such a weirdly convoluted way to enable them. I 'spose it's something to do with the BC, in the beta it was just an option on the mouths.

Yeah, in the BETA they were just an option on any magic mouth - but I think in one of the updates they accidently turned this option off, and I suppose with all the other bugs in the BETA, it wasn't really a priority. I too would like it fixed though - then we'd be able to give the player the option to skip the speech if they've read it before.
