RE: Quest And Journals - Obliviator27 - 12-25-2011
Your .hps appears to be correct. The problem lies in you not naming the Journal category. You had
<CATEGORY>
// Journal stuff
</CATEGORY>
When you should have had
<CATEGORY Name="Journal">
// Journal Stuff
</CATEGORY>\
I'm sure that if you make this minor change, it should work just fine.
RE: Quest And Journals - jessehmusic - 12-25-2011
thanx mannn gonna check it now Ty!!!
<3btw you know whats wrong on my name for the key custom name.
I got this then
<CATEGORY Name="Inventory">
<Entry Name="ItemName_doortokey1">A Key</Entry>
<Entry Name="ItemDesc_doortokey1>Key to an door</Entry>
</CATEGORY>
no i dosnt work
RE: Quest And Journals - Obliviator27 - 12-25-2011
Make sure the entry on your extra_english.lang corresponds with the CustomItemSubType, under the Entity tab.
For example, Key1 needs to be under the CustomItemSubType(Could have the name wrong, but it'll be near the bottom under the entity tab of the item) and not the name under the General tab.
RE: Quest And Journals - jessehmusic - 12-25-2011

{
if(GetSwingDoorClosed("mansion_1") == false){
StartPlayerLookAt("mansion_1", 5, 5, "");
AddTimer("Slam", 0.5f, "TimerSlamDoor");
}
}
void TimerSlamDoor(string &in asTimer)
{
SetSwingDoorClosed("mansion_1", true, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "react_scare.snt", "Player", 0, false);
GiveSanityDamage(25.0f, true);
AddTimer("Stoplook", 3.0f, "PlayerStopLook");

I would apreciate it very much. an maybe we can even put it up on the wiki

But it should be written something like this
<CATEGORY Name="Quest">
<Entry Name"Quest_TheWay_Text">Find a way out</Entry>
</CATEGORY>
(I think.. I'm not at my own computer so i can't check but i think it's like this)

.hps
void GetTheWayQuest(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
AddQuest ("trailquest" , "00Trail");
AddQuest ("start" , "01Begin");
AddQuest ("test" , "02LockedDoor");
}
.lang
Follow the liquid trail and find its source.
Investigate the mainhall
Find the key for the Wine Cellar.
the function that adds quests to the journal.
the "trailquest" and "test" quests get added because I copied them from the original .lang and the "start" text doesn't show. and it has the same layout.
derpaderp, I can't see it. maybe i've been staring at this to long. can someone shine light on this? otherwise Ill just use the original namings for quests
and the qurious thing is, that the "-" in front of the questtekst does show for the "start" quest but the tekst doesn't so there is probably a faulty line in the .lang
Ill get back at this after my pizza :/
okay so I found out that my custom quests still reffer to the english.lang off the original campaign...
it takes it's textinput from the lang_main/english.lang file I wonder why.
