"Display Text Message" feature does not work

The feature that a text message can be displayed as result of an objective fulfilled does not work (it never did in the sold CD version); how can this be fixed?

The Display Text Message feature works, but it writes text to a chat window not on the screen or anything so you don't see it in single player mode.

This functionality is in Objective.cpp (in Source\Code) you'll see CDisplayTextMessage which is the function you're looking for.

Below that is the Execute function

int CDisplayTextMessage::Execute()
{
ControlGui::instance->setChatText("", m_message.Data(), 0xf0000000, 0);
return true;
}

This is what you could change to write text on the screen though you would need to write your own function for it.
