3d2d.

#3

Is this a scripted NPC or just NPC enemies/allies?

#4

Yeah I know I should do it with 3d2d, I tried but I didnt success. And yes this is scripted NPC’s in my rp gamemode.

#5

please post the cl_init.lua of your npc and I will gladly script a title for your npc.

#6

Im not sure you need the cl_init, the NPC is from perp 3.5, but add me on steam if you can help :

#7

You said it was a scripted npc so it would be in entities/entites/ I don’t care if its perp I just need the cl_init.lua of the entity and it can be scripted like that.

Here, I’ll be even nice and include this here:
[lua] surface.SetFont(“HUDNumber5”)
local TextWidth = surface.GetTextSize(“I’m a lonely NPC”)

Ang:RotateAroundAxis(Ang:Up(), 90)

cam.Start3D2D(Pos + Ang:Up() * 11.5, Ang, 0.11)
	draw.WordBox(2, -TextWidth*0.5, -30, "I'm a lonely NPC", "HUDNumber5", Color(140, 0, 0, 100), Color(255,255,255,255))
cam.End3D2D()

end [/lua]

You can change the draw.WordBox quote and the font (you can see the font types in the GMod wiki)
