Changing how schematics are used in SLM

[Kaidon Jorn 195]

Heh..

I have no idea what you're talking about.

 

Ya know, if I could edit a_sioncut2.ncs without it breaking the cutscene, we would probably be in business. But I've tried a dozen times before and it always breaks the scene. Might be cause DeNCS doesn't decompile that script right.. 

I dont know.

 

 

Here's what I had before I gave up

 

void main() {


object oPC = GetFirstPC();
object oSbr = GetObjectByTag("pera_lghtsbr_018", 0);
object oWP = GetObjectByTag("WP_SbrOnFloor", 0);




if (GetIsObjectValid(oSbr)) {
DestroyObject(oSbr);
}
ActionWait(0.3);
CreateItemOnFloor("pera_lghtsbr_018",  GetLocation(oWP), 1);
SendMessageToPC(oPC, "I have fired and you should have seen the lightsaber"); 
}

Well, you could send me the script (fresh from DeNCS) and the changes you wanted and I could at least take a look at it.

you mean a_sioncut2?

 

Ok, gimme a minute

 

 

Here we go

 

The waypoint tag is WP_SbrOnFloor

waypoint name is wp_sbronfloor (if that matters)

The coordiantes are  

-1.37065

-7.515512

0.00052

saber tag is pera_lghtsbr_018

a_sion_cut2.nss

Sorry for taking so long to get back to you.

 

The forums don't notify you if a post is edited, so I didn't see your file until around 7PM. At that point, we had to leave for a barbeque and a fireworks show.

 

This script might work, though you'd need to fiddle with the 0.0 on the Location to get it facing a realistic way...

    if (!GetIsObjectValid(oDarthSion) ||
        !GetIsObjectValid(oKreia) ||
        !GetIsObjectValid(oAtton))
    {
        AurPostString("No Darth Sion and/or Kreia, don't bother with the rest of the cut scene", 5, 7, 10.0);
        return;
    }

    switch (nParam1)

Hey no problem.

I appreciate the effort, but I really don't think it's going to work.

I tried it a few more times with no luck.

But don't worry about it, not a big deal.

Besides it's time to move on and get the rest of this stuff working and in the can.

 

Speaking of...

Here is a short vid showing you what schematics will look like in 2.0 for the most part.

 

https://youtu.be/iZSR0Z5DFtI

 

The 3rd and last one didn't fire the animation or effects, Not really sure whats with that. Consuming one right after the other will probably do that I guess, but other than that the script is fine. Globals are set and all that.

It now also checks to see if you even took the power at level up. I made it selectable at level 8 but still not sure if that will be permanent.

Last couple seconds of the video just showing that they are consumed and not cluttering up your inventory.

 

AAAND!,...AAANNND!...went and made them unlimited use until you learn it - in case you (or any party member) haven't learned the power yet.

They will now only be destroyed when you have the ability and the schematic is actually learned.

Cuz, I didn't think of that before...man that was an exhausting 4 hours.

Yo, got another update I wanted to show off. 

Some minor tweaking still inbound of course, but here is the way the enclave encounter for the Apostle works now.

Wow! You managed to make Gerevik more useful AND made the Jedi Enclave twice as interesting! Great work, especially on writing Gerevik. That dialogue was appropriate and perfect for his datapad.

[Kaidon Jorn 195]

thanks

[Kexikus 995]

Really cool

 

Will this be part of SLM or a separate mod?

[Kaidon Jorn 195]

Part of it.

it's how you get the Apostle saber now. Rather than just having it drop off of Gerevik.
