not sure an easy user selection was done for this.
it would take modding to do.

XWeapons.int hold all the awnsers, but you cannot move them around the screen.

But i've seen a video from TG member (don't remember nick), messages are up to screen... :/

If it's a Video, it might have been added manually using a video editing program

somehow you can edit font-size. Don't know where though. I'd like it smaller too.

XGame.int is the one which does those messages. My mate actually made that one and gave it to TG|Deadhead.

Engine.int
Gameplay.int
Onslaught.int
OnslaughtFull.int
OnslaughtBP.int (for ECE)
UT2kAssault.int
UT2kAssaultFull.int
GUI2k4.int
UTClassic.int (for the sniper rifle)
XGame.int
XPickups.int

and of course

XWeapons.int

If it's in the game, it's in one of those files.

Most of those files get overwritten if you patch the game, so you'll lose your changes.
:cool:

Do you mean to move it higher up the screen? You cant. The only thing you can do is change the actual messages.

In the engine.int:

[fell]
DeathString="%k pushed %o down the stairs!"
FemaleSuicide="%o went down the stairs!"
MaleSuicide="%o went down the stairs!"

Way better than small craters, long live stairs!

Hahaha, n1 Spadger!

Here's some of the ones I use:

"gades PLASTERED himself with a well aimed combo! Nice shot!"

"gades went road rage on Gorge's ass in a goliath"

"gades! Step AWAY from the vehicle BEFORE you blow it up!"

"gades put a lightning bolt through Gorge's head!"

"gades defied gravity ... NOT!"

"gades R.I.P.ed Gorge a new @$$hole with the flak cannon!"

"gades's magic trick involving grenades went horribly wrong..."

"gades utterly destroyed Gorge with the skymine chain combo!"

"gades blew Gorge off the face of the planet with the redeemer!"

"gades! Explosive barrel! Opps, too late..."

"gades's AVRil backfired in his face!"

"Gades's Raptor lasered Gorge up good."
:D

yes it can be changed, no you dont need a serverside mutator, but only the content of the msg can be changed, like said, in the .int files.
