ForeverNight Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 You have everything necessary for the people in there to pop up? In short: a proper .GIT file is in your .MOD? the .UTC files of every creature in there is in your .MOD? the .UTP of every placeable in there is in your .MOD? (If this is a new area) the .LYT is in your override? the .ARE and .IFO are also included in your .MOD? your .MOD is in your modules folder? If you answered 'No' to any of these questions, then do what you didn't and report back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canderis Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 i have all of those and its a reused module so i dont have a .lyt or whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverNight Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Hmmm.......... Have you checked out DDD's MF's New Module Tutorial? Clicky Read through that and compare what you did to what DDD MF said to do. That tut works great, I know I've been using it a lot lately. (Believe it or not I printed it out). Hope that helps you.

Sithspecter Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 If you've placed NPC's or placeables in your module, and you loaded a savegame after you had already gone to it, the new NPC's won't appear. Also, the .mod file goes in the modules folder, if that's your problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverNight Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 SS, check out the list, last item on it. Never thought to check for the save within the area. Do what the man told you to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sithspecter Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Oh, sorry about that. Anyway, one does not need a .lyt file for a custom module, but you would need it if it was a retextured module or a new area. I think we may have been getting confused on some of the terminology.

ForeverNight Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 ^^^ My bad, I can't say I understand the difference between a Custom Module and New Area. Custom Modules I've always understood to be new areas. I guess I'd better consult a dictionary about this next time! (Does such a thing even exist for this?)

ForeverNight Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 No, you do not need to delete your character who has gone there. I can't say I've ever seen nor used that tutorial... to the best of my knowledge. (My darn parental controls blocked it!!!) !Idea! Did you rename the .GIT, .IFO, or the .ARE file in any way? I know I did that once and it totally screwed over my redone module. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canderis Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 i did not change the files names at all. so you think i need to start from scratch. i still got the coordinates righten down.... somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediMaster76 Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 @ForeverNight: http:// This thread is identical to the tutorial he's viewing at filefront.[url=http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?t=157396]http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?t=157396 @Canderis: Have you made sure you're using the right tags? Are you reusing old NPCs from a currently existing module? The coordinates exactly right? Are you warping to the right area? If you answered yes to questions 1 & 3, then I have no idea... >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exile007 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 What are you using for you creature templates? If this is for K2 than some of the models aren't in-game. That can sometimes cause a crash. Try moving the placeables, creatures, etc. to a different location and re-building the .mod file with only the .git, .are, .ifo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sithspecter Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Oh, I remember something. You also need to name the tag, template resref and the filename all the same thing. I had a problem like this when I first started module editing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
