Thank you very much for writing this! Will this just be a plugin and a model to take or will it soon be implemented into Studio?
This is very useful but sadly I still find it hard to follow right now, probably a video with a practical example would make this make much more sense.
Pretty sure its only a tutorial specific to this plugin and not an official Studio item. I’m under the impression that it is made for developers to be able to create dialogues more easily and be able to visualize how they interact.
Right now, you have to insert many DialogChoice objects as well as manage and keep track of all outcomes and responses yourself; sometimes you get lost when you have to do that.
EDIT: Not exactly sure how this works yet since I haven’t tried it myself, but I believe its for custom dialogues and not the one given by ROBLOX, so what I said in the second “paragraph” is probably irrelevant.
I second this. I’m more of a visual learner and it would probably help.
On the main thread David said once it’s out of Beta it will likely become the main dialogue system.
Thanks for the feedback! I’ll see about making a video tutorial soon.
Yes, I’m aware of how the current dialog system works. I was just wondering if this was going to replace the current one because he was tasked to fix the dialog system while he was interning at Roblox. I’m under the impression that they might replace the current system with this one, similar to how they replaced the core chat system with a Lua based one not too long ago.
Old dialog system won’t be “completely” removed, but may be hidden in studio. Goal of this project make that happen!
Video tutorial coming soon.
Whenever I try to edit my dialog it just freezes and says roblox studio needs to quit.

This is a fixed version of the plugin: https://www.roblox.com/library/2921269188/Glossys-Dialog-Editor-Fork
It was working fine before but now I can’t make an action the script doesn’t save for some reason, also the game is in team create idk if that would have anything to do with it.
If you use the draft feature or whatever its called, make sure to save the draft
When I go to the view tab draft isn’t there for some reason.
Weird, I believe the draft window shows up when you have edits to a script. Also drafts are only in team create, probably should have sent it in the original post
The draft window doesn’t show up at all, And the game is in team create.
When I make an action script it’s called “[DELETED] Action” for some reason.
Does anyone know how can I animate the text and add some sounds while its being animated? It’d really like to.
