Random text effect
December 4th, 2009
A QCtextsource for VDMX that wipes the text on and off the screen with random letters and symbols.
Inspired by COD:Modern Warfare 2 and Alx Toneburst.
Controls for duration, font size and font selection.

As Hiltmeyer noted correctly in a comment elsewhere on this site, the spacing on the letters can be off a little bit. This has to do with the way QC breaks up the string into individual letters. I’m still looking into this, but in the meanwhile it works fine for ‘fixed-width’ fonts such as Courier, Andale Mono, Monaco and my personal tech favourite OCRA.
