Dialogue between npc's

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 1:21 am

Hello,

I have this question about dialogue between npc's. first i want to have have a meeting in my town and I don't want them to stare at each other. so I looked at the quest drunk and disorderly from the fighter guild ( the one with the drunken fighters insulting each other) as example. well there was a very difficult script in it and I am not very good at script's, so i want to ask how do you do it?
Can you explain how the 'normal' speech between npc goes (I saw a mudcrab...)? it may be helpfull becasue, maby I will do that in my town. for background information: a meeting in a interior with the npc sitting at a table.
thank you for your time,

Unfortunately, the same system used for standard conversations probably wouldn't work too well in your case since you're wanting NPCs to be talking to the group instead of eachother... It can still be rather difficult to get the sequence and timing down, so you may want to start out small-scale within a separate mod (just 2-3 NPCs standing on opposite sides of the street yelling at eachother) so you can work out the mechanics of it.

than you for the help. it is in my opinion to difficult to do this for the meeting wich is not worth it, because it isn't so important.
