Kieran told me to make this thing use Starfox 64's real font and all, so I decided to rip them from the Starfox 64 ROM. I used texture dumping for that. Meanwhile I came across this Starfox 64 hacking thread. Pretty interesting actually, I suggest you to check it out.
Andross' quotes automatically have a red textbox. The textbox is also slightly transparent in general (but the text isn't).
Like the previous version, this version also supports custom quotes. However, it is far more customizable and user-friendly now. It also has a couple of new parameters. Here's a list:
name: The name of the character
text: The quote itself. Line breaks automatically happen, unlike the previous version
image: URL to the mugshot image. Can't be over 300kB and it automatically resizes to 44x44. If nothing is supplied, or the image is broken/invalid/takes too long to download/etc, a purple-ish static image will appear
color1: Color #1 of the textbox gradient
color2: Color #2 of the textbox gradient
fontcol: Font color of the normal, quote font
boldcol: Font color of the bold, name font
Here's an example usage:
I'll release the pixelfont used for this later.
