Aurora Toolset, A Dance with Codex

[ERYFKRAD]

I eke bethink thee shouldst stand ho being a dram wench each timeth someone gives thee a comment yond thee liketh not.

You wanted archaic english, he brought the archaic Saxon. Þæt wæs god cyning and all that.

void main()
{
    object oPC = GetFirstPC();
    object oBrigcounter = GetModule();
    int iSlayedBrigs = GetLocalInt(oBrigcounter, "iSlayedBrigs");
    if (iSlayedBrigs == 0)
        {
        AddJournalQuestEntry("ctf_soul", 2, oPC, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE);
        GiveXPToCreature(oPC, 1000);
        iSlayedBrigs = iSlayedBrigs+1;
        }
    else
    if (iSlayedBrigs == 1 || iSlayedBrigs >= 1)

        }
    if (iSlayedBrigs == 3)

        }
    if (iSlayedBrigs == 10)

        AddJournalQuestEntry("ctf_thebeast", 2, oPC, FALSE);
        GiveXPToCreature(oPC, 500);
        }
}

What did I do wrong this time? Anyone?

Organised Shakespearean is readable. You can't deny it. His comment wasn't meant to be readable.

I don't know what is wrong with you but your code looks better like this. Also, the else statement is redundant, maybe that is one of your problems.

I could read it

 

[Gahbreeil]

I could read it

Know of me if my last purpose hold or whether ye art advised by aught, to change the course, he's full of alteration. And self-reproving, bring his constant pleasure.

See? Shakespeare, not drivel meant to be funny and rude.

What object is running this script? What event triggers it? What is it supposed to do and what is it actually doing instead?

It is a bit difficult to figure out why it is not working as intended without knowing what it is intended to do in the first place, but one possible issue is that "iSlayedBrigs++" only increments the value of that variable for purposes of that particular script. It will not alter the value of the "iSlayedBrigs++" variable set on the module (if that was what you were expecting). You would need something like SetLocalInt(oBrigcounter, "iSlayedBrigs",iSlayedBrigs++) to do that.

An OnDeath script. It wasn't doing squat. I fixed it on my own.

void main()
{
    object oPC = GetFirstPC();
    if (GetLocalInt(oPC, "iSlayedBrigs") == 0)
        {
        SetLocalInt(oPC, "iSlayedBrigs", 1);
        AddJournalQuestEntry("ctf_soul", 2, oPC, FALSE, FALSE, TRUE);
        GiveXPToCreature(oPC, 1000);
        }
    else
        {
        SetLocalInt(oPC, "iSlayedBrigs", GetLocalInt(oPC, "iSlayedBrigs")+1);
        if (GetLocalInt(oPC, "iSlayedBrigs") == 3)
            {
            AddJournalQuestEntry("ctf_thebeast", 1, oPC, FALSE, FALSE, TRUE);
            SetLocalInt(GetFirstPC(), "arnahconv", 1);
            }
        else
        if (GetLocalInt(oPC, "iSlayedBrigs") == 10)
            {
            AddJournalQuestEntry("ctf_thebeast", 2, oPC, FALSE, FALSE, TRUE);
            GiveXPToCreature(oPC, 500);
            }
        }
}

 

[Gahbreeil]

Any reason for a why .wbm isn't working? It's an mp.4 changed into a .webm and then file extension changed.

I'm done, guys. I've read the License for creating modules. The cretins on the NwVault are breaching the law, get what I'm sayin'? I'm not interested in creating high fantasy for a bunch of perverts who don't even know that they're criminals as of the Toolbar -> Help -> About in the Aurora Toolset. The demo is finished, Gargaune, you're the best for helping me to learn scripting. I'll be making my modules for myself from now on, maybe I'll mention it to the Codex if it's playable.

I'm sure your local constabulary will be interested in hearing about this.

What your done already here I thought we'd team up and make a home-brew interactive DND campaign that would steal... sorry wrong word borrow heavily from Lord of the Rings and Frieren Beyond Journey's End

I did not say that I'm out of creating a module with the Codex. Read with understanding.

 

[Poseidon00]

Dang, I was just about to offer my help before I learned you gave up on the idea. I know my way around the toolset rather way but I never felt inspired enough to make a full adventure for myself.

Hey, read the thread, dude. I don't even know whether you're serious. I'm really about to be up to my nostrils in the Codex's hatespeech.

No one said anything note worthy except for Hag so why would I name my solo devving a team project?

I'm shocked for words

Hi, all. I've, since, understood how to make .haks. This .hak above adds over a hundred portraits into the Aurora Toolset! How cool is that?

Also, can someone help me ask Valine for rights to use her ACAG .hak? I was planning to edit male nudity out and remove most of it. Why? (Elven breasts, hush) IDK whether he/she is still online but the module has taken a massive decline downwards for the worse from what I saw.

 

[Gahbreeil]

Is there any point in restarting the project? I've let my mind stew and I find that I'd like to return to modding NwN.

I don't have a team which is a massive decline but still. Amidst all the griandose dreams of glory, I have to admit I also have a plea for anyone who's been here.

Cutscene tutorial?

[Pikoman]

In light of the current discussion in the main NwN thread, veering into the ancient conundrum about control of your henchmen, a question has resurfaced in my mind regarding how customizable exactly is the process of choosing how your henchmen levels up. I understand that you wouldn't be able to make a module where it's possible to have fully direct freedom to choose what feats, spells and ability increases your henchmen would choose, but can you make them at least select what class package they use upon levelling up while playing, provided the SoU functionality of telling them what class to take a level in is added to a module?

I haven't fully explored the potential of this but I believe it's possible to give them fully customizable leveling paths. You can also give them whatever skills or feats you want at the start.

Yes, there is a point to restarting the project. More NWN content is always good.

Since I lasted posted here I began working on my own thing, I will share my work so far if you want to see what I can do. Happy to collaborate on whatever you're working with. It's about a dozen or so areas, basic quest and faction outlines, stuff like that.

I believe that you can have control over henchmen in the Toolset where you create them. Here's a link, you're looking for Step 4 if you want to confirm.
