I want it to look like the last photo all the time

Looking at the Unreal text actor, it is using this material:

  • “/Engine/EngineMaterials/DefaultTextMaterialOpaque”

… and that material uses Shading Model: Default Lit.

What I’d do is dupe that material (don’t wanna break engine stuff), move it into your project, change the duped material into Shading Model: Unlit, then make your own version of the Text Actor which uses the Unlit material.

This would be an excellent solution to the problem. As @Shmoopy1701 said, make a duplicate in case you change your mind.
