New to scripting. Need some help

[Fair Strides 2]

I just want to spawn a Gammorean. Which utc should I place in the override folder? What value should be assigned to Mod_OnModLoad? gamspawn101 or gamspawn?

 

And yeah, I have packed the module.ifo back into the .mod using the ERF editor (Tools->Add resource->module.ifo)

 

What value should I assign to Mod_OnModLoad? It's currently set to gamspawn. And why do we have to execute "k_501_enter" in gamspawn101?

 

Did you ever make a .utc file? The CreateObject funtion gets the template resref from a .utc in the override folder and spawns it in-game. No .utc, no spawn in-game.Just open a gamorrean .utc file in Kotor Tool, edit the tag to be "dgon", the conversation to be the name of whatever dialogue you want, and the template resref in one of the tabs to be the same as in the calls to CreateObject.

 

And as for executing the k_501_enter, we replaced the text so that script isn't run. So, to make the game still play like normal, we execute the scipt ourselves.

 

Also, you need to have gamspawn101 in the module.ifo field.

 

Try that and see if it works, okay? Don't forget the tutorial on .utc files that I posted in one of my earlier posts.

But I'm thinking of dealing with the conversation later on, once I spawn the Gamorrean. Do I need a utc to just spawn a Gamorrean and make him stand in one place?

I successfully spawned the Gamorrean. Now how do I make him initiate a conversation with me when I'm close to him? How do I edit my dialogue options and his responses?

 

Thanks for your help and patience

I'll walk you through the dialogue in a bit, but to have him initiate a convo when you're near him, follow this(the .git file is in the .mod file; use ErfEditor again.).

 

The conversation field in the .utc file specifies the default .dlg file(minus the extension) that is used when a convo starts. To make a .dlg file, use the dlgeditor and be sure to read the read-me file.
