In the CS: Steadhelm27.

The latest version of the esm can be downloaded in the Source.
Size: Small-Medium

Description: A small unsuccesful library/book store with a few rare books, some quests and maybe some surprises.

I have a strat (lucid) hour left today, can I claim this in that time?

(do I need to have the esm for this?)

[sandor]

Go ahead. :check:
Have fun!

No, but if you make the esp dependant on the esm you can use many new objects (plates, candles etc.).

[Cuthalion]

I'm almost ready, I haven't used the esm though, I hope that won't be a problem....

I've added 2 NPC's: Maline Broles and Sebastien Broles, both breton, sebastien is the merchant...

[Cuthalion]

Ok, it's ready I think. I didn't implement dialogue because it would take too much time to learn it. I tried to build a pathgrid, but I'm sure it's not OK. I've also made my first Schedule, but that's also likely to be bad...

Dialogue
Sebastien:

Steadhelm
"I came to live here just a short while ago, I like it here. Though I must say that the people in this village aren't really interested in books, unfortunately."

The Fine Print
"Yes, my little bookstore right here! Only a short while ago I bought the shop from an old man, I've rebuild it quite nicely don't you think?"

Maline:

Steadhelm
"I've only just moved a short while ago from Silgrad City with my husband, Sebastien. I don't really know the town yet."

The Fine Print
"It's my husband's bookstore. It's not running very well now, but I'm sure that it will work eventually."

Thanks.

I'll check it and I'll reply this evening.

Abbrev.

F= Floating / B= Bleeding / S= Look at Screenshot / PG = Pathgrid / th = tetrahedron, point / sh = silhouette / R = Resize / Re = Reposition / A = Adjust


General info.


Furniture is floating (a little) because of the silhouette (the CS assumes (after pressing "F") the bench (for example) is already on the floor, it's an error). Press "F", twice or thrice. All the furniture with silhouettes have the same problem.

Is there enough clutter?
In the lower right part of CS screen you'll see the faces (face count).
For your interior it's 152592. It should be around the 200k and max 300k for an interior of this size.
This is important to keep the fps acceptable.


The Groundfloor.

The First floor.

MiddleShoes05, F



General Remarks.


Check the furniture, F
If you place it on the floor press "F" twice (or thrice).

Add more clutter. Go up to 200k (faces).

The PG is fine, add one th near the sh for the chair near the window (top floor).

For the AI, I'll reply later.

Resuming:
The Pathgrid is already above par.

I'll implement the dialogue.
Thanks for writing the dials.

It's a nice interior.

AI.


- Packages should start with StCu... etc.

- For the location: Don't use "in cell". It can produce unexpected behavior.

- Make sure that the packages are chronological (use the left arrow key).

- Add a wander package type: Time and duration any. Specify a radius (near editor location) of 1024 etc.

[indent][/indent]This is always the last package in the list.

[indent][/indent] You could use a standard package for example aaaDefaultExploreEditorLoc1024.


Sebastien.

Sleep: Change the location.
Eat(2*): Specify the location (near editor).
Services: Uncheck "must reach location".

Maline.

Sleep : Change the location.
Eat (2*) : Specify the location.

[Cuthalion]

I'm sure you noticed Maline was missing a big part of her schedule, I meant it to be filled in by you to include outside her house locations...
