[WIP] Skywind NPC Hub

Submitted by Machine on

Hi everyone,

I'm creating this topic in order to get some organization on the conversion and setup of NPC's for Skywind.

As you all know this project is still an undertaking even with all the tools at our disposal. The NPC's are an essential part of morrowind, and since Skyrim is a new game engine, there are just some things we have to do ourselves by hand such as face generation.

Now for those of you that don't know, the NPC's are already in our new Skywind master file, but all their values were setup from a template which means things like their class, factions, items, and spells along with how they look in-game are not setup yet. I will complete everything besides FaceGen, that's where you come in.

Below will be a link to spreadsheet, where you can pick from a list which NPC's you want to work on. Just make sure you fill in the Reserved field so others know not to work on them also.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AneKYijLPljYdEs2UE5DWmIzdGxrZjB4MlhJWGFkNGc#gid=0

Again all I need is FaceGen information. Just open up our newest Skywind.esm in the CK, edit your NPC's, and save the esp and reply here with a link to your esp. 

FACEGEN EXPORTS ARE NOT NEEDED IN YOUR ESP

Facegen exportation will be done after the NPC's are merged into the master.

 

This thread will be used from now on. The new method works a lot better than the old way, because instead of a single person claiming an entire race or letter, they can just claim as many as they want. You can claim one npc or 200, just mark out the info. So yeah, if you see an npc you really like that hasn't been finished yet, go and claim him/her, finish up his/her face, and post the esp.

Also you only need to edit the face, just the face, that's the only part that needs to manually be done.

I finished the few remaining Ms, started on a few S characters, but, just wanted to point out, 0Staada cannot be done in the editor. Staada is a unique Golden Saint, but she appears as a male Dremora in the editor, and has absolutely no options to make her appear as a Golden Saint... Any suggestions, or just leave her for now?

Leave, I think, we have forgot about it:)

Ok, I got everyone's work up to this post. I'm going to merge this batch over the next couple days. Nice work btw!

Wait wait wait, apparently it'll be better not to merge my second esp (AlexP Mi'); I edited with tessnip who apparently corrupts data (zilav told me that).

What do you think of that ? Should I edit the original with TES5edit ?

Thanks!

AlexP, I wouldn't worry about it. If you only deleted something with it we should be fine. The corruption I was hearing about seemed to happen when you merged plugins with Snip.

Anyways, all the npcs were merged without issues.

Edit: what do i do in the spreadsheet when i finished my character do you guys get rid of it or do i have to sorry I'm pretty new so...

Just paste your forum name in the reserve spot whenever you decide to take a NPC.  Machine will remove that line completely once he has your face esp and it is merged..

That brings my total to at least 616 faces completed, but, I lost count of a few during one of the spreadsheet cleanings. It was fun working with everyone! Can't wait to see this thing when it's all done.

wait a second all npc's are done? but i have a batch that im still working on or is it all the npc's that orignt had?

They are all reserved, not necessarily done. :)

Karma: 0 (0 votes)

bah they are as good as done lol

Karma: 0 (0 votes)

Yeah, sorry to worry you Deception, what I had meant is that they are all reserved (and, thus, basically done). I usually reserved a character one by one as a I completed them, I sort of assumed everyone did it that way but no worries if you didn't, keep working on the ones you reserved. :)

Well keep in mind that some npcs may look fugly(probably some I made) and may need to be re-done in the future.

all plugins up to this point have been merged in the latest master.

[I faced 3 NPC conflicts.. so I took the first one I merged for those]

Thanks for your hard work !

I thought I'd just to one first to make sure I did everything okay. This is the first time I've did anything with CK really.
