Hello, excuse me in advance if what I'm asking is odd.

 I'm using an Inferno FRED build, 3.6.10 and I'm trying to create a cinematic to conclude my campaign.
 The problem I have is making subtitles for the player to read.

 (I have opened up Blue Planet, Intro cinematic as a guide)

When I first open up the SEXP show-subtitle, I can only get 4 arguments.
                1:   X position (negative value to be from right of screen)
   2:   Y position (negative value to be from bottom of screen)
   3:   Text to display
   4:   Time to be displayed, not including fadein/out

 In the Blue Planet Intro in an event there are 6 arguments, but whatever I try, I can't get the arguments to increase to 6 from 4.
 Sorry, I can't show you what I mean with pics of the Events editor I don't know how to upload them here.

 How do you increase the arguments in a show-subtitle SEXP? Thx

Do you try right-clicking on "-show-subtitle"?  It should give you an option for "Add Data--><any string>"
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

Nice nuclear.

By the way, could you tell me how to access the models of the FS1 ships, like the PVF Anubis?

 Anyway, I'm collecting all the information into a Word document so don't worry, I'll only as things once.  ;)
