Daggerfall NPCs

Version: 0.3
Author: Kamikaze

*****************************************

Description

*****************************************

Sick of slaughtering the same few bandits and marauders for the millionth time? This mod replaces bandits, marauders and conjurers with NPCs based on the 21 standard classes, just like in Daggerfall. All NPCs carry loot and cast spells according their class skills and theme. For example, Assassins use poison and invisibility potions and Knights use Restoration spells. All classes also have a boss version. There are six variations for each class (three male, three female) and two variations for bosses, so there are 168 different NPCs in total.

There are three NPC types: warriors, thieves and mages which replace marauders, bandits and conjurers respectively.
Warriors: Archer, Barbarian, Crusader, Knight, Rogue, Scout, Warrior.
Thieves: Acrobat, Agent, Assassin, Bard, Monk, Pilgrim, Thief.
Mages: Battlemage, Healer, Mage, Nightblade, Sorcerer, Spellsword, Witchhunter.

Daggerfall NPCs is compatible with other creature overhauls provided it is loaded last. A compatibility patch for MMM is included.

*****************************************

Installation & Load Order

*****************************************

To install, just place the .esps in the Oblivion\Data folder.

Load Order:
1. MMM or other creature overhaul if you use any
2. Daggerfall NPCs
3. Daggerfall NPCs - MMM Patch (if you use MMM)

*****************************************

Compatibility

*****************************************

This mod replaces the leveled lists for bandits, marauders and conjurers. It is compatible with MMM with the included compatibility patch. It should also be compatible with FCOM, although I personally don't use it so I'm not completely certain.

Looks cool.

Sounds interesting.

Did you replace the normal spawns with your versions?
Or did you add new spawn points?
Did you add your NPC's to the level lists?
Did you create a new LL?
What about compatibility with FCOM?

Same questions as Aellis (beat me to it actually). Especially with regard to FCOM and overhauls other than MMM.

I've never played daggerfall, but seems many folks around here can't get enough its themes anyway.

It makes sense why marauders and bandits are attacking me. It may not make sense why a fighter or thief is.

I'd like to see the existing bad guy factions fleshed out more - made joinable. Like http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=17978 made more sensible.

thanks

You should play it. I don't see why any one here would have an excuse for not having tried it.

Yeah in hindsight the readme doesn't explain well enough what this mod does exactly. What it does is the following (I've updated the first post as well):
It replaces the leveled lists for bandits, marauders and conjurers. It is compatible with MMM with the included compatibility patch. It should also be compatible with FCOM, although I personally don't use it so I'm not completely certain.

This sounds radically interesting. INSTANT DOWNLOAD.

I fixed a few bugs and wrote a slightly better readme. I want to update the first post but it says I don't have permission.

Wow I thought his was dead - in fact at one point I searched for this thread and couldn't find it.

I have a question of two.

I did try having this in my FCOM game but it didn't seem top work right there. One reason is often the encounters would appear to get angry draw swords, but not attack. You could dialogue with them and they would have mid range dispositions and all that, but then out of dialogue they would get stuck in loops of frowning and and drawing swords when my character was around.

So does this mod add factions - perhaps factions that OOO/FCOM does not take into account? Or does it add all the added NPCs to existing factions?

I eventually took it out as it seemed to not be working with the FCOM set up. (wonder how it will work with TIE).

I put the thieves in the Bandit faction, warriors in the Marauder faction and mages in the Conjurer faction. They're also in a special faction so they don't fight each other, because I made them spawn together sometimes. Anyway I've updated the mod so they all have -100 disposition towards the player, I think that should fix the problem.

Hmm - OK, not sure when I will get around to testing again in FCOM land, but I did grab it thanks.

Great. Will try it.
