Overlays, and a console

Post by c_olin »

Ive been looking at how overlays work, and I dont see how you can do dynamic movement and stuff with them for HUD or for a console.

Is there an easy way to just print text, without a material or overlay script?

There is no API-independent way to do this except TextAreaOverlayElement, ie overlays, or using CEGui. A console class was made a while ago based on the same concept as TextAreaGuiElement.
