Billboards and Speech Bubbles

by Gordon Marsh · in Torque Game Engine · 06/28/2006 (6:33 am) · 2 replies

Hi,

I am trying to implement some form of speech bubbles in Torque for the characters in the game. I'd like each player to be able to see the bubble and relevant text.

From scouring the forums I believe the way to proceed is by using billboards.

Could someone give me/point me to a beginners intro to using them? I have no idea how to even get one of them on screen!

Thanks,

TheGords
