Travis Companion Testing

That beard bug happens to me too, I have no idea what it is not how it is caused except it happens when I use certain Idles with dialogue.

 

He should be solid as all the Core packages are all your work with a few tweaks by me but nothing major.

 

I will expand on the idle dialogues and combat cries. Should be fun!

Just FYI it may be worth your time and effort to upgrade to the 1.4.2.0 scripts and logic because then he can use Healing Powder and Antivenom; however, this entails a lot of changes through all the scripts and conditionals (in dialogues and packages).

 

There is an additional benefit as well, depending on how much farther you want to expand your plugin:

 

In 1.4.2.0 I totally rethought the NPC object script and took all of the companion-related variables from VNPCFollowers and moved them into the companion object. Basically it was like taking RoseOfSharonCassidy's object script and adding in all of her variables from VNPCFollowers.

 

In the first version I pretty much followed the design of VNPCFollowers, but in retrospect I think it's much better to have all individual companion state varialbes with the companion object, not as part of a general script.

 

Logically it makes the scripting much cleaner and easier to follow, and much easier to expand especially if you wanted to add 2+ companions to the same plugin. You can more easily duplicate the Npc object and NpcScript object because internally it's not referencing the quest script anymore.

Ummm so that means I have to start from scratch? I really reather not do that. How would I duplicate the changes onto the existing file without going though all the changes again?

 

Not trying to be lazy or what not, just its a tim consuming exercise and I dont have as much time as I liked to?

 

I hear using TESnip is the thing to use but i have no idea how tonuse that except making .BSAs and master files.

If you want to fake it, you can open it in FNVEdit and change the VERSION field from 1.32 to 1.34 (under File Header). But what drake is saying (the other one) is to take away the variables from VNPC quest and put it on the companion script itself. I fail to understand why this is called "1.4.2" script since I believe this could be done on any script. It's just a matter of preference. Yes, it's better practice but not worth redoing the whole thing over, especially something as big as this, if Willow is any indication.

 

EDIT: Ignore the above text, if drake (again, the other one) was referring to a new revision to his Amigo mod :tongue:. In that case you could just look at the antivenom scripts and add it in.

 

If you want to blindly copy new forms from one esp to another, you can open both in FNVEdit (at the same time), right click on the forms you want to copy and choose copy as new record to.. (if new form) or copy as override to.. (if a version exists in the destination esp). It will most probably ask you to make the old esp the master of the destination esp since the forms you are copying may refer to other forms in the old esp. Allow the change for now and then change all references in the newly added forms to point to identical references in the destination esp.

 

Then simply right click the new esp and click on Clean Masters. If it still shows up as a master, you haven't completely removed all references. Otherwise you are good to go.

Humm... Dont suppose you could do it for me? Im still such a noob when it comes to Tesnip and such. I could forward the lastest esp for you...

 

If too much trouble, i will try and see if I can do it.. just Tesnip seems to disagree with me when playing about with it... or its a Windows 7 thing.

Sure I can do it. It's not much work. Just PM me. Also let me know what to add and what not to.
