Replacing Protagonist with the 6th NPC, Code Options

[Vlad]

About 8 years ago, when I started modding, I solved the problem of removing your protagonist from the game and replacing him/her with another NPC. I'd like to put this code here by memory, so if someone wants to make this trick, he/she can do this. Just please don't forget to mention that this code is mine, and not yours. The first script block codes whichever trap or trigger, which triggers this script:

IF
IsOverMe(Player2)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
StartCutScene("RemProt")
END

The following block removes Protagonist (kills him/her instantly) and replaces him/her with Player 2, for example Imoen. Then you'll have an empty spot for the sixth NPC. Just a note, if you have some romances, don't try this.

RemProt.bcs:

IF
Global("VP_Kill_Protagonist","GLOBAL",0)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
CutSceneId(Player2)
SetGlobal("VP_Kill_Protagonist","GLOBAL",1)
ActionOverride(Player1,PlayDead(0))
FadeToColor([20.0],0)
ForceSpell(Player1,SKIN_DANCER_RESTORE)
ActionOverride("TR...01",DestroySelf())
FadeFromColor([20.0],0)
EndCutSceneMode()
END

"TR...01" - is a death variable of the Skin Dancer creature who reveals himself in Trademeet. I don't rememebr by heart, but you can find it in NI.
