Added some code to the Holo research area in the Big Empty, reminiscing Sierra Madre. After the player reads the Vera Keyes Hologram Progress Report note on the terminal, I play the NVDLC01StarletHolotapeAudition note to player (remember? the one in which Vera auditions for ther movie), then switch on the casino broadcast, tying it to a Vera hologram in the area. This is done like this:

NVDLC03HologramTemplate -> \Data\textures\nvdlc01\armor\starlet\starletheadholomaster.dds is required for textures in the Override folder. Setting model to starlet, enabling the starlet idle animation (mtidle_starlet)

When the player reads the note on the terminal:(runs on NVDLC03SLHologramTerminal)

resetquest VDLCPackQuest ;this crap quest is now used for base game <-> dlcs connection, at least serves some real purpose nowsetstage VDLCPackQuest 3

VDLCPackQuest is modified thru base game mod, which consists of base game, NVDLC01 and all promo dlcs injected into base game thru my mod. So I basically have direct access to pretty much everything with the exception of DLC02-DLC05. VDLCPackQuest stage 3 now does the following:

disableplayercontrolsplayer.setpos x 1091.84player.setpos y 2424.56player.setpos z 7326.48player.setangle x -5.34player.setangle z 287.55ChristineInvisibleTalkerREF.moveto player 96 ;move an invisible talker with femaleuniqueChristine voice to player)stopquest VDLCPackQuest

ChristineInvisibleTalker runs the following script:

Also, a bug in this area: if player bumps into the force field protecting the looping helmet, the helmet drops to the floor. Sux! Fixed like this, running in NVDLC03HologramBeamTriggerSCRIPT:

BEGIN onLoadset fXPos to NVDLC03HelmetLoopREF.getstartingpos xset fYPos to NVDLC03HelmetLoopREF.getstartingpos yset fZPos to NVDLC03HelmetLoopREF.getstartingpos zset fXAngle to NVDLC03HelmetLoopREF.getstartingangle xENDBEGIN GameModeif fZPos != NVDLC03HelmetLoopREF.getpos z ;positions stay the same even if player picks up the object, but she can't grab it or knock it down any longerNVDLC03HelmetLoopREF.setpos x fXPosNVDLC03HelmetLoopREF.setpos y fYPosNVDLC03HelmetLoopREF.setpos z fZPosNVDLC03HelmetLoopREF.setangle x fXAngle ;angle x is now 15, all other angles 0, looks better this wayNVDLC03HelmetLoopREF.setangle y 0NVDLC03HelmetLoopREF.setangle z 0endifEND
