THRILL6060 Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Sorry, I can't really help you with that, but I recall the Underwater base mod for New Vegas had vending machine vendors(i think), so maybe you could take a look at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordGawaine Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Dead Money had vending machine type machines that use Chips for currency which I think could be pretty similar to what you want if you look at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korodic Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 (edited) It's all scripting... player activates the activator object (like how you press a button to turn on a jukebox) give menu for items. player selects item on list. Take away caps (or something in exchange for item) give player item. exit menu interface. That's pretty much how it works. Looking into a dead money vending machine is a great place to see the scripting you'd be looking for. Edited October 12, 2011 by Skibblets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattlerx5150 Posted October 12, 2011 Author Share Posted October 12, 2011 I looked at the dead money machines , they work more like a campfire. they use there own recipes. converting SM coins to objects and objects to sm coins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordGawaine Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Any chance you can change the model of an NPC to be a Vending Machine? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribbleshnibit8 Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 You'll want to take a look at Talking Activators. You can set the model of the thing to be a vending machine, and then link it to an NPC. I'm a bit fuzzy on the details of that second part, as I don't like messing with NPCs. However, it's done in several places in the game, so take a look at something like in the REPCON rocket facility to see how it's done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
