Taco033 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 First off, I'm new here, hello. However, this isn't the Intro thread, so I'll get to my question. I'm attempting to create my own alternative start mod and I'm having difficulty doing so. Does anyone know of a tutorial that can explain how to set up an alternative start? That or simply tell me (I have moderate modding skills, so you might have to talk slowly...or write...nevermind). The internet has failed me on this subject so I decided to come here and ask. I already know about the other alternative start mods and I'm not looking for those. Thanks,Taco033 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidBudreck Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 If you know about the other alternative start mods, then studying them would be a good start. You have not indicated WHAT you are having difficulty with, so it will be hard for anyone to help you. For something like this you definitely need to have a plan. For instance, are you going to link into the main quest? If so, how, and where? Study the script for the Main Quest to see how and where it is updated; you are going to need to mimic it if you intend to tie back into it at some point.

Taco033 Posted November 29, 2009 Author Share Posted November 29, 2009 You have not indicated WHAT you are having difficulty with, so it will be hard for anyone to help you. Sorry 'bout that. I'm having difficulty starting in a different location (let's say right in front of the Imperial Palace) at the beginning of the game and completely ignoring the main quest. Essentially, I want it so we don't have to go through that initial tutorial through the sewers. Your suggestion about the Main Quest was painfully obvious and I probably should've done that before freaking out. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidBudreck Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Maybe I'm the only one in the world, but i LIKE starting in the prison. I just don't like having to go through that stupid tutorial every time--but there are mods to take care of that. So, having never tried to do what you're attempting I can't be much help, except to say that the other alternative start mods must have solved the problems you are having, so the answers you are looking for are already there (you just have to find them).

Taco033 Posted November 29, 2009 Author Share Posted November 29, 2009 Well, I'll give those a try since they very much did fix that. :thanks: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
