Dialog greeting issue.

Post » Fri May 13, 2011 4:39 pm

I have 5 NPC's in my mod. They each have a greeting they say to you. I got the first 3 working fine, but the last 2 refuse to speak to me. When I talk to them ingame, it zooms into their face as if it was going to start, then zooms back out immediately without them speaking at all. I have done hundreds of lines of dialog so I know what I'm doing. The greetings have only one condition, a GetIsID and I made sure it was for the right NPC. They have no flags checked, and simply link on to more topics. Can anyone throw out some ideas as to why the NPC's refuse to talk to me, for seemingly no reason whatsoever? I have checked all the options over and over but I cannot see anything that would cause this. I figure this is just some stupid mistake, but I have been looking for 2 days now and cannot find it. Any suggesting are appreciated.

The only time that happened to me was I forgot to start the quest that the dialog was in. Zoom-in blank.

I wish this was the case, but these two NPC's are spoken too after the other 3 are, and all dialog is run in one quest that is definitly started first. (As you have to do about 2/3 of it to get to these guys)

What conditions do you have on the quest itself? Voicetypes, etc. Do the NPC's meet those conditions?

And check for errors with FNVEdit to make sure there are no 'previous info not found' errors.

Oh my god! :facepalm: I literally hit my head against my desk when I read this. I put a GetIsId on the quest as well since I was going to add generic reaction conversation topics, and that was back when I only had the first three characters set up. This is definitly it... Thank you!!! No telling how long this would have taken for me to eventually find myself. -_-
