Here it is. You can download the plugin for MV :)

Thanks! I'm having trouble making it work though. If I follow the example exactly, the placeholder text is only "Enter", and the message closes before I can type anything. If I reduce the placeholder text, same thing happens. Also, why does the example have 5 parameters? (what is "John"?).
If I remove the first parameter I get a blank window in which I can type and it doesn't close, but eventually I get the missing image error and I can't leave that window.
Waiting for fixes :)
Thanks for the feedback.
Working on fixing it right now.
It seems that manual configs are leading to that behavior in some cases.
However if you use the plugin command with no config it should work fine with the party leader image.
The "John " in the example is misleading and i forgot to remove it. It was ported from the origin plugin cause MZ has a speakerName displaying on top of the Text Window.
Will let you know once i upload the update
Regarding the params - yes, there are default params: Party Leader image and placeholder text.
It might make sense to remove them to create a default empty window as it seems to be the most prevalent use case of the community.
Regarding the issue you described with the window opening. I can't replicate it in my environment so i might need a little help to debug it. Are you on a Windows or Mac? Which version of MZ are you using and what is the version of your core script?
Thank you so much for supporting the project with your feedback
Please download the updated version of the plugin (1.1.2).
I changed the default params for no actor image and no placeholder text.
I also tried to fix the bug you report by changing the logic of the synching window displays that could be affected on windows but i have no way to test the plugin in a windows myself.
Would be awesome to knoe if this worked for you
Thank you! It seems to be working now! Sadly for you, I'm a pretty good bug hunter hahaha. I found a bug that probably not a big deal, but you never know. I was testing with keys and typing texts, when it reached a point where each time I typed a letter it would give me 3 of them. Like II aamm ttyyppiinngg nnooww. I try to replicate the bug, and eventually I did that by interacting with the event and holding the Enter button. It would quickly skipe the input, but next time it gave me double letters. I also came across moments when one key stopped working and I had to press another to interact with the event, but I'm not sure what caused it. Anyway, I feel like the fact that multiple keys can be used to activate the plugin is an issue. In any case, this might be something to ignore. I'll keep in touch in case anything serious comes up when I'm using it in my game.
