Help with radio and quest please!

[jbear95]

Can anyone help please?

 

I am doing a mod where to start a quest the player listens to a radio station, the radio station works but I do not know how to get the radio to start it, should I just place a trigger box around the area?

You should just need to find the radio response and in the script for that response, in addition to it setting the variable that defines the next song, add "Startquest YourQuestID" on a new line.

 

For example, let's say that you wanted hearing Big Iron to start a quest. You find the response which is INFO: 0016B80F . Its script has this:

set vCountryRadioQuest.iLastSong3 to vCountryRadioQuest.iLastSong2
set vCountryRadioQuest.iLastSong2 to vCountryRadioQuest.iLastSong1
set vCountryRadioQuest.iLastSong1 to 11

Change it to:

set vCountryRadioQuest.iLastSong3 to vCountryRadioQuest.iLastSong2
set vCountryRadioQuest.iLastSong2 to vCountryRadioQuest.iLastSong1
set vCountryRadioQuest.iLastSong1 to 11
startquest YourQuestID

Of course I'd add a check to see if it was already started so you start it only once. You may also have to display a message or set a specific quest stage too.
