I haven't written any dialogue system at all, so I can't recommend any specific tutorials for 1.4. That said, I have seen tons of them, I'd recommend tracking one down for 1.4 - no one will want to go through that entire video and convert it for you.

Perhaps the better question you should ask is "Can anyone recommend a good dialogue system tutorial for 1.4?"

I didn't watch the entire video. But the differences aren't that great. And a few times, the author specifically mentions when they occur. For example, using instance_create_depth() instead of setting the depth variable separately. And using the new camera functions to control the view.

If you are reasonably familiar with Studio 1.4, you should be able to make the necessary changes. And if you get stuck, you can always come back here for help with specific code issues.

GMS2 for something like dialogue I doubt is very different than 1.4. If you find it difficult, I think you should start with something a lot more simple and learn GML, then re-visit it, because it's very low on the complexity scale (the differences...an actual dialogue system is moderately complex).
