Hi! Thanks for the cool mod! I was a little hampered by the dialogs in the center of the screen, so I moved them down the screen by changing the value in the dialog_menu file.xml in <rect name="DM_SpeakerText"> y 860 /y.

But I can't find a way to change the position of the shared subtitles. Could you tell me how to do this? Thank you.

Open hudcenteredtext.xml and modify lines 45-49 from

 <onlyif>
  <copy src="parent" trait="y" /> <lt> 10 </lt> <!--VUI+ don't apply to other activator strings such as [EMPTY], Locked etc -->
  <and> <copy src="grandparent" trait="childcount" /> <gt> 2 </gt> </and> <!--VUI+ don't apply to subtitle blocks which only have 1 child -->
 </onlyif>
</y>

to

 <onlyif>
  <copy src="parent" trait="y" /> <lt> 10 </lt> <!--VUI+ don't apply to other activator strings such as [EMPTY], Locked etc -->
  <and> <copy src="grandparent" trait="childcount" /> <gt> 2 </gt> </and> <!--VUI+ don't apply to subtitle blocks which only have 1 child -->
 </onlyif>
 <add>
  <copy> your y adjustment </copy>
  <onlyif> <copy src="grandparent" trait="childcount" /> <lte> 2 </lte> </onlyif>
 </add>
</y>

replace your y adjustment with a number.

I hope it works, I haven't modded for several months.
