Create3DTextLabel

Create3DTextLabel

Description:

Function Create3DTextLabel creates a 3D Text Label at a specific location in the world.

Function Create3DTextLabel was added in 0.3a and will not work in earlier versions!

drawdistance seems to be a lot smaller when spectating.

If text[] is empty, the server/clients next to the text might crash! If the virtualworld is set as -1 the text will not appear.

Use color embedding for multiple colors in the text. To remove the background use color with transparency less than 0xFF.

Parameters:

(text[], color, Float:X, Float:Y, Float:Z, Float:DrawDistance, virtualworld, testLOS)
