Any idea of any script that has this feature? Options

[Vexus]

HI, so I'm trying to find a decent script that let's me examine items in the inventory to show a more detailed explanation.

It's quite simple yet I can't seem to find any lol.

So if you know of any script like this, please let me know.

Thanks

Well there is this one.

It does not exactly look pretty as far the how information is presented but it does give a bit more details about the items.

That's the current inventory script I'm using to utilize the grid system and limit items.

Mine's edited but what I mean by detailed explanation is something similar to resident evil where in the inventory each item has a basic description but if you examine them a window pops up showing a much more detailed information.

Thank you anyway.

Try pasting this in a blank above main:

Instructions are in the first few lines.
It works exactly as ForeverZer0's Diary script.
This script won't work if you haven't his Diary script implemented (I know you have it, Vex...)
