Henchmen script set
« on: August 18, 2011, 01:00:47 am »


               I'm trying to create henchmen, but I don't have the expansion packs so I can't just load the henchman script set. Which scripts are the henchmen ones, for which events? Thanx.

Good luck.

               Wow. Looks intimidating. Maybe I don't really need henchmen...

Nah... Only if you want your forrestals to have forest guardian "animal" companions ( Amethyst Dragon's excellent Topiary Guardians ;-) and play tag with pixies...

From Greylord's Basic Henchman tutorial:


   

4.  Next go to creature scripts, or the scripts for
   the creature tab.

   

   
The typical readout will go something like
   

   nw_c8_defaulte
   nw_c8_default3
   etc.
   

   In each of these slots you will replace the
   

   nw_c8_default
   

   with
   

   nw_ch_ac
   

   But will leave the final letter or number as the
   identifying script.

   

   
Hence the readout should look like
   

   nw_ch_ace
   nw_ch_ac3
   nw_ch_ac4
   nw_ch_ac6
   nw_ch_ac7
   nw_ch_ac8
   nw_ch_ac1
   nw_ch_ac2
   nw_ch_ac5
   nw_ch_aca
   nw_ch_ac9
   nw_ch_acb
   nw_ch_acd

               Actually it doesn't seem so hard - you just sub in the ch scripts. I like doing conversation files, so that'll be easy. Making the dialogue functions seems to be the only tedious part.

I use a template modified from the Module Builder's Henchman Kit, but then, I have both expansions :-/

This might help a bit :-)

               I got like a million compile errors, but it seems to work. The henchman won't work for me, though. I think i'm not high enough level.
