I need to find function that print text on the game screen when i say something. I found address where string starts and then I found what read from this address. Now I have adr that might be what I am looking for but I dont know anything about parametrs. When I noped address the game get crashed. What is the easiest way to find function like printing text and how to know what push affter call?

The exact method passing parameters can potentially vary from one function to the next, but they are either going to be on the stack or in registers. You can look at what the calling code is doing w/ your value before the call instruction to make a determination. You can also/instead set a breakpoint and trace into the called function to see how it accesses your parameter.

alright first search for any strings that are printed in the game in olly
once u've managed to find one, look below it , there should be a call a few instructions below

once u found the call, look above for all the nearest pushes , and record them down, they should look like this if the string u found is "You have been booted"

push ADDRESS1 ; ASCII "You have been booted"
push 1 ; some random numbers
call ADDRESS2

there may be more pushes as well, and if you see push eax/ebx/ecx , just breakpoint at that address to get the value of it, IF the value is an address , check if its a pointer ( changes every game )

Just a note that you don't specifically need olly to find the strings and the code that references it
in ce go to memory view and press ctrl+alt+r, then you can do a search for the text you're looking for and you'll also get to see the addresses that referenced it

does anyone know of somewhere i can find all the shortcut keys for CE , cause what darkbyte mentioned above i had no idea about and it would have been useful.

just check the text of the shortcut after the menu item.
e.g this was just memview->view->referenced strings
