ERROR IN CUT SCENE


Recommended Posts

I'm going to check, but I'll also post it up in case you're wrong (you're probably not) but it doesn't hurt to try.

 

Code:

You're right. there's an AWFUL lot of them missing. It'll take me AGES to do, but Thanks anyway

Well, the first and most obvious problem is that set_state_continue isn't a short. It's a void. You want something like:

 

Code:
choice = run_dialog(1);if (choice == 2)       set_state_continue(54);  
I'd be surprised if any part of this cut scene ran.

 

Also, about halfway through state 54, you start omitting force_instant_terrain_redraw (right after "Surprising, a pitiful band of adventurers").

 

Additionally -- and this is just a cosmetic thing, but still -- you'll almost never want to use pause(1). That's a tenth of a second. That's hardly even noticeable. If someone's running, you probably want pause(5). If someone's walking, you want pause(7) or pause(8) or so.

 

EDIT: Just saw the part at the end. Well, yeah. Just copy and paste, though.

I think I've got them all done now. But now I've got to wait before testing it. Oh well.

 

Here's the FORCE_INSTANT_TERRAIN_REDRAW lot;

And I have to have this as a Quest solver, I hope it works. Otherwise... I might also add another few lines to it. And it's not THAT bad. It runs - sort of.

My suggestion is to stay away from Rentar-Ihrno in general. She is so cliched in Blades of Exile, it's not even funny. I hate to say this, but any first effort will not be that great. Hold off until you develop some skills to try something so grandiose.

Note that the two random party members may be the same one, which would make the dialogue a little strange. This may be unavoidable, since the party may only have one character in it, unless you check for that and structure the cutscene differently in that case.

Micael, just wondering. Have you been reading any of the advice and articles people have been giving you? It sure doesn't seem like it.

I seriously recommend you scrap the scenario you're working on now, read the relevant Designer's Forum articles, and start something new.

If you still want to make this scenario, though, go right ahead. Just don't get upset when nobody wants to play it.
