Problem with the quest making tutorial : V

» Mon Jun 18, 2012 2:53 pm

Hello, I've been following the quest making tutorial, I worked all the way through to where you're doing journal entries (Quite far in to the tutorial) So I go to test it, and Bendu (The elf you create in the tutorial) says nothing to do with the quest. When you try to talk to him, all he'll say is "What can I do for you?" Or stuff like that, never will it enter actual dialogue. Any ideas? ty

EDIT: Never mind, figured it out. Turns out, you always have to create a new profile

What do you mean with "creating a new profile"? I have that problem too you know.

I think he meains "Alias" - In order to take part in scenes and dialogs of a quest, you need an alias to refer to.

My npc has an alias. It still doesn't work. I've made both a voiceacted "hello" in the quest misc and the topic itself, voiceacted too. The Npc is uniqie and the conditions in the dialogue has a "GetIsID". What have I done wrong?

use GetIsAlias instead and pick the alias and see if that fixes it.

It's still not working

could it have something to do with the "getquestcompleted == 0" -condition I have made? Or any other ideas?

how are you triggering the topic, with a scene, forcegreet, or just letting the player go up and talk to him?

If it's in a dialog, make sure the topic branch is a "top Level" type, too.

Just letting the player go up and talk to him.

And the branch is already a top level type.

And the conditions on the topic reply itself are just "IsAlias" and the quest running condition?

(Oh, and I'd use IsRunning rather than IsNotCompleted, unless you want it to be available before the quest starts?)

Another thought...make sure you gave your quest a priority...if it's priority 0, the NPC may be ignoring the dialog in favor of his vanilla behavior.

If you mean GetIsAliasRef (not IsAlias and GetIsAlias), then yes.

(Oh, and I'd use IsRunning rather than IsNotCompleted, unless you want it to be available before the quest starts?)

He should also talk before the quest is started, because the only way to start the quest is talking to him. But both topic and hello is still not working. He just says "Yes" and "Aye" and so on as if the my dialogue didn't exist. It does.

And the priority is set to 60 so it should be working.
