Can't get Sidequest to add

[Pavlos]

I followed the tutorial here: http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?t=143372

And there are some problems I'm having. The first is that you cannot change the data inside the CExoLocStrings so how do I add information about the quest and its name. And also I tried the little dialogue thing and the script thing to add the sidequest but neither worked.

 

Edit: Forget the adding business I had forgotten to add the questentry number. But I'm still trying to fathom how to add info about it.

Which editor are you using?

 

With roboius's gff editor (I would tell you with k-gff but I only edited area files with it so I don't know but I guess it's similar), you have to put -1 in the top box (this means you are not referring to an entry no. in the .tlk file but storing it in the .dlg file instead) and if you have the English version of the game, 1 in the lower box called Language ID. For other laguages, type one of the following numbers in the lower box:

 

Language ID

English 0

French 1

German 2

Italian 3

Spanish 4

 

then simply type your text in the big white box.

I was using the Bioware editor, I'll try Roboius' then. It just wouldn't allow me to add text to the CExoLocString.

Works the same. Did you do what I mentioned above?

[Pavlos]

Yes but the text block is still greyed out!

here's a screenie (from a .dlg file but it's the same): http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v144/Darth333/ggf_lang.jpg

 

Press enter after you enter the values.

Damn not pressing enter! It is always some little thing I forget to do!
