DemonxBlood Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 hi, me again... can someone perhaps give me a link which explains how to create new codex pages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamajii Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 A codex entry is a special type of plot resource which provides background information. Simply create a new plot, setting the Entry Type to the codex section you wish to expand. This automatically creates a new blank codex slot in game. It's not easy to remove the Official Campaign codex slots, because the associated plots are core resources. However, in a standalone module, those slots will remain blank throughout. Creature codex entries appear when a creature of a given appearance is first killed. The codex text used is determined by the CodexPlot and CodexFlag entries in APR_base 2DA for the appearance in question. So you can make a new codex plot, either to give a different description to an existing appearance, or to add a new appearance. An easy way to make other codex entries appear in game is to use a placeable which has an Examinable appearance. Set the PLC_CODEX_PLOT and PLC_CODEX_FLAG variables to the text you want to appear in the codex when the player examines the placeable. http://social.bioware.com/wiki/datoolset/index.php/Codex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
