GowiHasti Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I'm working on a custom companion and I'm following a tutorial and I'm on the dialouge part. ...Now move on to the "Topics" tab. Bestow, this where we will add the dialogue commands to control our companion. This is where you need to start thinking about which features you would like your companion to have. For this tutorial, let's give our companion four simple commands: "Follow me.", "Wait here.", "Go home." and "Let me access your inventory." Alright, so to start, right-click in the blank table on the left side of the window and select "Add Topic". Right-click again, anywhere on the list, and select "New". In here type an EditorID that's easy recognize for what it is. This topic will have the "Follow me." command, so I will put "MyCompanionFollow". Once it is created, highlight it and hit "OK". Now, everything apart from the list of topics (1 topic at the moment, actually), is an interface for editing your currently highlighted topic. So, highlight "MyCompanionFollow" (or obviously whatever you named it). Now, where you see "Topic Text", there is a input box next to it. This is not the EditorID, it's what the player will say ingame. So I will change it to "Follow me." It could be anything you like, "Follow me, man.", "Stay close to me." It's up to you. Now, under "Info", right-click and select "New". You are now creating a new response. This is what a NPC will respond with if you bring up your topic. I will put, "Sure thing." Once again, it could be anything. "Okay.", "Yeah, let's get going.", "Right behind ya." Whatever. Now we must select a "response" to edit, and since the only one available is the one we just created, then we'll just select that. Click it once to highlight it. First of all, check the "Goodbye" and "Top-level" boxes. "Goodbye" means that when the response is finished being said, you will exit the dialogue menu and resume game (used throughout the main game on "I have to go now.") I'm at the part where you add the response and right-click and select "New". under "Info" GECK crashes. I have no idea what to do Any clues???

vforvic Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Try attaching a Microphone to your Sound Card Mic Port. Even if you are not planning on doing voice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GowiHasti Posted January 6, 2012 Author Share Posted January 6, 2012 Try attaching a Microphone to your Sound Card Mic Port. Even if you are not planning on doing voice work. Worked like a charm and I would never have thought of that as I hadn't planned on doing any voice work. Thanks a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
