Newbie Modding Question

Recommended Posts

I'm new to modding on oblivion, and I want to be able to create mods for myself and possibly one day for others.

 

I read all of the CS wiki lessons, and believe that I am capable of creating simple modifications to the game, but I still have a few questions.

 

First of all...how do you create a topic for just one NPC? Whenever I do it, it gives the topic to all NPCs.

 

Thanks. Much appreciated.

Probably the first condition you want on the topic is the "GetIsPlayableRace" then, "GetIsID". Use your NPC unique ID as the ID to "Get" and that should be it. Have fun

ok i have a small, but irretating problem i cannot upgrade my oblivion from 0.1.0.228 using the patch, therefore cannot use OBSE for many of the mods i have downloaded. As i am sure you are aware how extremely irretating such a problem i will now quote the error i get when trying to install the patch closest to my version. "Old file not found. However, a file with the same name was found. No updates have bin done since file contents do not match". also the OBSE error is as follows. "you are using the original 0.0.1.228 version of oblivion, please upgrade to 1.2.0.416" so i am at a loss i have added many mods before, but i found the lack of both the patch and OBSE made modding not very exciting, as im sure you can understand. so i ask for any guidence possable.

 

Thank you Drez.

If you got your game through a download such as D2D, You have to go to them for any patches. The ones at the official site will not work because of the D2D copy protection. Programs like OBSE will probably not work because of the D2D copy protection. If you have a pirate version, sorry about your luck. Don't be so cheap, buy the game.

 

If you have the Game of the Year version, you don't need a patch.

 

To find what version you have, look in the lower left corner on the loading screen. If it shows v1.2.0416 you already have the latest patch.

 

You only need to install the latest patch, v1.2.0416, all of the stuff from earlier patches are included.

 

If you have Shivering Isles, DO NOT use the Oblivion patch, ONLY use the latest Shivering Isles patch. All of the oblivion stuff is included. There is only one English version SI patch for both US & UK versions.

 

If you DO NOT have Shivering Isles, use only the latest Oblivion patch for the language version on your original install disk.

 

Be sure to get your patch from the official Bethesda site where they have FREE patches for every language version, There are 2 English versions, UK & US be sure to get the one that matches your disk.
