In my scenario, a couple things are screwing up: 1) The player #5 is supposed to send messages to players 1-4 throughout the first minute after the cinematic is over. However(maybe this is why it screws up), he is on a different team than all of the others. I disregarded this and plugged in the condition of a timer(starts after cinematic is over) and the effect of send chat. This didn't work, so I put in send chat to player. Now in both I am hearing the little speech being sent, but I don't see it. If that made any sense, I could use some advice...
2) In my cinematic my dialog/message or whatever you'd like to call it, I have tried as many effects as I can think of for it, doesn't show. I think the two problems are related, and maybe it's just my laptop. Any suggestions?

1) This is a bug, seems the new editor disables the chat feature if cinematic mode is engaged. Have fun working around it - I say that from experience.
2)Haven't tried adding inter titles while in cinematic mode yet, but I shutter to think what may be up with that effect. I believe it does work and you're probably not setting it up right. Either try reading the WIKI, dig through posts, or open one of the Blood, Ice, Steel cine/scenarios and look at how ES did it.

Use the play dialog effect to put text in cinematic mode. Put your text in the 'subtitle' box and your portrait name (if any) in the portrait box.
oh you can wait for what I can give you know what I am so you know how I live try to look proud but you’re not in the slightest its happening now and it’s always been like this.

Oh...I guess you're right. I used both 'message' and 'play dialogUE' and neither worked. Didn't see the subtitle option on 'play dialog'
