Help With Making NPC Dialogue

Post » Thu Dec 30, 2010 8:36 pm

Ok before anybody just posts the link to the official tutorial I HAVE USED IT ALLREADY! The tutorial doesnt really explain everything and is in general kinda confusing. I just want to know how to get a raider boss that I made to give me a choice, either fight him, or have a huge battle. I have made it a quest, and thats really as far as I got. I went to the topic tab and made a new topic. I named it " BossBonesGreeting " (the Bosses name is Bones) and thats really the only part I understand. What is the "Info" box for, what is the point of it? How do I get the player to choose a dialoge option? What is the point of the other tabs? Like the conversation tab? Can I edit dialogue through the dialogue tree and how? GAHH Its soo confusing and ive been sitting here 25 minutes trying to figure it out and searching for tutorials and no other tutorials that I could find could teach me how to do dialogue. Whould it just be better to edit dialogue in a program like notepad? How do I edit dialogue in notepad? How do I make dialogue activate a quest?


All help is GREATLY appreciated :D

I can only suggest that if there is similar dialog in the game or a mod you have played, that is like what you want to use, I would go ahead and open it up and see how it's done. It maybe a the very least a starting place for you. I am soooo happy we got the conversation editor in the New Vegas GECK, not that it helps with FO3, but it was a nice improvement.
