HELPFUL TOOL FOR RM2K3

This is a helpful guide for the annoying TEXT BOX problem. If most of you are like me, then you know how frustrating it is to write up some dialogue, go back and read it and it cuts off. FRUSTRATING!

Here's something that you can use when you plan on creating any text in your events.

Using Notepad, copy and paste these into your Notepad and name it "RPG MAKER TEXT BOX". This is going to be another file you open up when you open up RPG MAKER.

A few things to take into consideration, for those who need things in layman's terms like myself.
1. I've made two layouts, one with a face graphic and one without.
2. The numbers in parenthesis( ) mean that's how many numbers fit in the Message Box using a graphic or not.
3. The numbers 1234... is your reference measurements, do not proceed past the last number as the text will be cut off.
4. There's a "Start Below Here:", as it says.
5. The large empty space is where your text will go.
6. There's an "End Here (Create New Message Box)", means once you've reached this point, create a new Message Box.
7. Finally there is another reference measurement so it makes for easier line up.
REMEMBER: If you use this format, do not use the ENTER button or you will throw off the layout. Press the DOWN ARROW when you come to the end of the measurement number.

DISCLAIMER: With as many people out there who are trying to make things easier for you and I, this idea has probably been done before (for better or worse). I don't want anyone to say that I've stolen the idea, just tell yourself, "Great minds think alike."
