This patch allows the quest system to send a 'popup' window to the client as you see in the tutorial zone.
Patch against the code from KLS' SVN on googlecode:

To use it, from a Perl quest:
Code:
quest::popup("Join the revolution!", "<br> Welcome to the Mines of Gloomingdeep. Your fellow captives
need your help to fight the kobolds. When you are ready to leave the tutorial, talk to
Arias and he will show you the way to your home city. Should you decide to leave, you
will be able to return to the tutorial from the character select screen until you are
level ten.<br><br> If you need to refresh your memory on topics
that we have already covered, feel free to click on the question mark icon on the
<c \"#00A000\">Toolbar</c> located at the top of your screen.
<br ><br> <c \"#F07F00\">Click 'OK' to continue .</c>");
Note that I broke the example up onto multiple lines for readability. It all needs to be on one line in your quest (unless you can have multiline strings in Perl).
The first argument is the window title, the second is the text to display in the window, which looks like HTML. The above example comes out looking like this:
Only one popup can be active at a time. If you send another while one is already up, it will overwrite the one already showing.
OP_OnLevelMessage needs to be changed from 0x0000 to 0x1dde in patch_Titanium.conf (same value as is already in patch_6.2.conf)
Client popup window (like in the tutorial zone)
Linear Mode
