If you are using SetMessage then it will be on the middle, try to use flashbacks or soundeffects.

RE: Getting messages on the screen Need Help

Yeah now i am using setmessage for a message that comes up if i enter a new chapter in my story ... like " chapter one - blablabla " ... that works quite good !
It looks like

AddEntityCollideCallback("Player" , "ChapterArea" , "CH1" , true , 1);

and then the

.... SetMessage("Messages", "CH1", 4.0f);


Is there a way to do it the same way in left down corner ?

@Tanshaydar

Thanks for the fast answer but can you or someone give some more infos about how to use flashbacks oder soundeffects ? Really dont know how to handle with flashbacks etc...

Thanks

I think it is this way:
void  AddEffectVoice(    string& asVoiceFile, string& asEffectFile,
                                    string& asTextCat, string& asTextEntry, bool abUsePostion,
                                    string& asPosEnitity, float afMinDistance, float afMaxDistance);
