yes they do. ROBLOX just made them so you can only make them via script. |

Yes, but i'm making them via a script. local msg = Instance.new("Message") msg.Parent = game.Workspace msg.Text = ("Loading Ultimate Paintball")
But they still don't appear? |

I'll give that a try, the local property might have been something to do with it.
Disappointingly, it didn't work, the outpost reported no problems, the script continued as normal, but no message appeared. |

Try this:
msg = function(text,parent,time) local m = Instance.new("Message",parent) m.Text = text game:GetService("Debris"):AddItem(m,time) end
To call the function, you type this:
msg("Loading ultimate paintball...",workspace,5) |

"ROBLOX just made them so you can only make them via script."
Since when? You can insert them into a Player without a script. |

Nope. There's something odd going on with the messages, while i tried finding the problem, i added a pre-inserted message and made a script to edit it's values, but nothing was changed, but the script worked!
I give up on this, does anybody has a GUI solution that inserts a GUI into people's screens for a short time? |

msg.Text = "string"
You don't need parenthesis |

if you do this:
function msg() msg = ...
Then you are declaring two global values with the same name, I don't think that will work. |

The text is a string so you just need ""
local m = Instance.new("Message") m.Parent = Workspace m.Text = "This will never end" |
