quick question please

Post » Wed Jun 20, 2012 8:07 pm

I am creating a new dungeon, an I am finding that when I place NPC's they dont show up in the editor so I cant see them to edit them, only by using the cell command line can I effect them at all. I have "M" on to see markers etc... I notice when I log into the game to check if they actually show up, half time they have fallen through the map an are unaccesable. I have looked through the help files, an tried every command I can find that may make them visible.... I am at a loss.

Cheers

Have you tried looking beneath the floor of the dungeon to see if the marker is showing underneath? If so, then raise it up on the Z-axis. (Select the reference, hold down Z, and move your mouse up).

Ahh I had not thought of that, so the yellow marker being "below ground means that the NPC even though its showing on the ground will still fall through.... I had not realized that. Thanks alot man, I'll try it.

Here is what has developed soon as I fixed that issue (thanks for that mate)

So from left to right, is the editor view of the spot I think the problem is. In game this spot shows a "NorSmHallStairs"..... sideways in the view coming through the wall. But as you can see, in the editor theres nothing there. On the right is the editor error after I saved the map having just fixed the NPC issue in this post. It is telling that there's a problem with cell 01000D62. But there is no 01000D62 in the map. For some reason this showed up soon as I moved the NPC to stop falling through the world.
