Help! "^NPC.Name" in "messagebox" does not work!

[Rei97]

I am doing script and I need to get the name of the npc in my message, searching on google I found that to get the name of an npc I need to use "^NPC.Name", it happens that using it does not show the message just results in "% PC"

This is what I put

begin MyScript

messagebox, "Hello my name is ^NPC.Name nice to meet you"

StopScript MyScript

end

and this is the result in the game

%PC

One more thing, I am doing that in Morrowind Goty Edition, with TESConstructionSet, in a Script not in the result of a dialogue, I would greatly appreciate the help as I searched and found no solution, or if they might know another method of obtaining the name of an npc. :'3

Maybe do you need MWSE.

Maybe do you need MWSE.

Yes, in fact I already have it together with MGE XE but apparently that is not the problem, do you know of any other method of obtaining the name of the npc for messagebox?

^NPCName

[Rei97]

^NPCName

I've tried it too, but it results

 

%PCName

oh, then it must be simply:

^Name

 

(%Name in dialog, ^Name is for MessageBox)

 

^PCName for player

I also tried that, but putting it gives me the name of the player and not the npc, it's strange ...
