Dialog issues

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 10:13 pm

I am trying to make a faction in a town that im building and i cant seem to make the NPC let you join. No matter what option i push in the game for join or not join i get the same response even though i told it to do diffrent things in the CS. Also at the end of the resopnse it asks me the quesiton again as for wether or not i want to join. Ending with me in an infinite loop and having to close my game.

Did you order your dialogue correctly? Morrowind reads dialogue from top to bottom, and the first dialogue entry whose conditions are met, is being shown. That means that choices must be put over the question. To reorder dialogue, click on a dialogue entry and move it with the left or the right arrow key.

try using
pcraiserank "faction id"
in the results box for the dialog entry where the player decides to join. it's how the dialog for joining most factions work in the vanilla game.

If dialogue is really sorted correctly, it's probably filtered incorrectly: the error you describe is typical for improper sorting/filtering. To help you out, I'll need more information. In detail, I'll need to know:
  • all appurtenant dialogue entries
  • the order in which they're sorted
  • their precise and complete filter conditions
  • their Result Box scripts
  • anything I've forgotten to mention ;)

The easiest way to get that information is to have a look at your .esp file. Would you be willing to temporarily upload it somewhere like MediaFire, RapidShare, or the like?
