[LE] Problem with creatong a dungeon

It'd be a pleasure.

 

I'm just glad to have helped somebody on this site after all the help the others have been to me.

 

I'm not the most expert on this site by a long way but I think I've picked up enough to make a useful contribution to your mod. I'm also an avid player and I've played warriors, battlemages and pure mages up to around level 80 on each, so I can comment on each style of player.

 

Good luck with the rest of your mod.

I'm back at it after leaving it rest awhile. I managed to knock a bunch of segments out of aliment while I was cluttering the dungeon and I couldn't figure out how to get them realigned. So I ended up redoing much of it. On the upside, I've learnt a lot, I have a better dungeon but some things still elude me...

 

One thing that's driving me crazy is how do you put a bar on a door so that door cannot be opened until the end of the quest?

 

BTW, I've managed to get the hang of shafts with spiral staircases but I can't put them in rooms only out connecting to hallways but for now that's good enough...

 

Once I have it looking the way I want, I'll go on to watch the rest of the tutorials...

I guess it's either a parent relationship or a linked ref, I'll suggest you set it up like a door which can only be opened per lever. Perhabs there's one set up in the warehouse already for you to copy.

 

I don't have a lot of experience with nordic dungeons, never tried to create one. The Dwemer shafts have a mesh I think its called bottom, which can be placed easily in any room. I would imagine the nordic shafts have the same.

What you need for your barred door is as follows:

 

Any small nord dungeon door

DoorDeadBolt01

 

Position the deadbolt on the wall behind the door. I made sure that the door opened towards the deadbolt (or else it looks silly in-game)

Make sure your door is not 'open by default'

In the deadbolt dialog, linked reference, link it to your door.

In the door dialog, linked reference, link it to your deadbolt.

 

I think that's all I did and it works. The message should come up 'This door is barred from the other side' when you try it in game.

Thanx, I never would have thought to search for deadbolt... I don't know how many times I had to get seriously creative in my searches and still not found what I was looking for only to trip over it while looking for something else.

 

At the rate I'm going I'll have this mod ready to upload in about a year.

I talked over the mods I wanted to accomplish with my grandsons and making a dungeon wasn't on the list. Neither was making a follower but I did that fist by following the tutorials. Anyway I'm making progress and maybe just maybe, just maybe I'll get to it.

 

As I work though the frustration factor, it's beginning to be fun...
