Customization

MessagePause_Image: Filename of the picture, must be in the Pictures folder, its dimensions are: 64x16 (16x16 per frame)
MessagePause_x: x position of the graphic. Based on this formula: message x + message width - pause x
MessagePause_y: y position of the graphic. Based on this formula: message y + message height - pause y
MessagePause_Frames: Total frames for each animation frame.

Compatibility

This script must work with any script.
