Need help reaching the next level!

Post » Wed Aug 26, 2009 9:16 am

Hey guys I've been using GECK for a couple of days and have managed to complete a VERY basic set of 3 quests. Literally just an item collecting (a very easy one at that) set of quests. Basically I'm looking to step up to the next level, and create a quest given out by an NPC (not exactly sure what the objective should be).

So I want

A ) Advice how to create a quest given out by an NPC as suppose to a ontriggerenter activator

B ) An example of an "intermediate" quest objective for me to try

All help appreciated (and credited in any resulting releases)

Also I can upload the 3 simple quest plugin if anyone is interested (as basic as it is, i would appreciate feedback on the way I've done it, make sure its up to "industry standards" and the like...)


n.b sorry also does anyone know the script for making a magazine a target objective, similar to

if player.gethasnote Note but for a magazine?

Just make dialog for the NPC and in the Result block for that dialog place the 'setstage myquest 1' that you would normally place in the trigger script.

For an intermediate quest objective, I would say something like, 'kill 5 ghouls' or maybe 'repair a generator' so you can practice scripting things like kill counts or setting up advanced things like how to repair an object. (Outside of the hardcoded menu's)
