Alright, here's my problem:
I have written out the dialogue file for an NPC following the instructions of a tutorial. Everything (to me anyway) looks like it's in place, but WeiDU keeps stopping the install when it runs into commands such as "DO" and "EXIT". If I remove the first one, it will get a little further and stop at the next. I have no idea why this happens (as I'm a total newbie to this). I'd post my code into a PM for someone who wants to see it (and help, not just see it!!!)

Well, I predicted having more problems. Here's the next one.
My character works perfectly when I create him using the CLUA console, but I can't get him to appear in the section he is supposed to be in. For testing purposes, I just copied the area script file provided by a tutorial (Ghreyfain's, I believe) and changed the names. Supposedly he should appear somewhere in the government district, but he doesn't. So far I have not tried to enter the district in a normal manner. I just teleported straight from Chateau Irenicus to the government. Does the cut-scene upon leaving the dungeon somehow activate scripts elsewhere, or do I just have something typed incorrectly? CODE IF Global("CXHalboExists","AR01000",0) THEN RESPONSE #100 SetGlobal("CXHalboExists","AR1000",1) CreateCreature("CXHalbo",[1137.2046],3) END Also, could someone explain how the coordinates work? I've looked at the minimap in Infinity Explorer and the X/Y coordinates will not go as far as 1137 or 2046.

QUOTE(Sir_Carnifex @ Apr 20 2008, 04:42 AM)  CODE IF Global("CXHalboExists","AR01000",0) THEN RESPONSE #100 SetGlobal("CXHalboExists","AR1000",1) CreateCreature("CXHalbo",[1137.2046],3) END Fix the typo. The area codes don't match with each other. There is an extra "0" in the code in the trigger line, which you should remove. Have you extended the bottom of AR1000.bcs properly in your tp2?

 Cheating is not confined to using external software or the console commands. Abusing the flaws and limitations of the game engine to do something that a human Dungeon Master would not accept or allow is cheating. |
