Fallout 3 mod question

Post by Julie »

I have found creating and editing terrain and buildings easy with the GECK. NPC's on the other hand have been a big problem.

Thanks in advance to anyone who is kind enough to try and help:

So here is the process I follow – step, by step:

1.Make sure the area the NPC is to walk in is fully Navmeshed with no errors

2. Find the object window/actors/npc. Right click on an npc (in my case a brother hood of steel character) and then select “New�

3.Make sure persistent reference is checked (I have also tried this without persistent reference checked)

4. Select Edit Base

5. Leave Template data set for “BrotherhoodOfSteel2GunAAtemplate� I have also tried none as well as other generic npc templates)

8. Make sure the XMarkerHeading has patrol data sent to 0.0 interval

9. Link Ref the NPC to the first XMarkerHeading

11. Link Ref the second XMarkerHeading to the third Xmarkerheading

12. Check the

No matter what his name is this is making me crazy....ok crazy-er. I have read all the tutorials I can find from Bethesda, to Facepunch to Modding 4 fun to youtube. The npc (now mind you this is not a "lvl" monster npc) goes to the first xmarker and stops.

This is primarily a Fallout/Fallout 2/random BS website. There are no Fallout 3 modders here that I know about.

You'll probably find your answer on these sites:
