A problem. After posting on the ESF forums to find out how to get the armor check working it turns out that I should be able to get items in your inventory but anything you're wearing can only be detected by "GetEquippedItem" using OBSE...Perhaps we can just say that if you want to bring the armor in then you can at your own risk but it'll be confiscated or some such if you're caught wearing it (but then we still need OBSE Frown )

So you're saying either way we need OBSE?

Hmmm...has anyone here ever modded for MW (not to imply that _I_ have)? In vanilla MW, the ordinators in Vivec used to react violently if the player was wearing any ordinator armor, but having such armor in one's inventory didn't set them off -- I understand that this is exactly the opposite situation of what we're talking about here, but perhaps there's a scripting clue in that game...Also, it might be worth asking the folks remaking Vvardenfell if they have plans/ideas on how to address this issue... I dunno

Come to think of it, although Dwarven stuff was putatively illegal in MW, I don't remember ever having an issue with an NPC about it; of course, I may not have talked to the "right " people while wearing a full suit of Dwarven armor though...hmmm...

Yeh, well I played Morrowind a bit but by the time I started playing it it was already fairly old and I hated the cheap gfx xD. So what where do the dwarves live?

Yeah sort of. The Dwemer WERE the dwarves, but that name is somewhat of a misconception as they were at normal elven height, they just considered beards fashionable (unlike most elves). :)

Would it be cool with everyone if I placed a non-functional teleport gate in HG which appears only after the player has received offical clearance to enter Skyrim? I'm thinking there should be a tangible consequence of receiving a completed Skyrim entry form (other than an actual form), and this might eventually provide a useful point of connection between HG and the rest of Skyrim...

If approved, I intend to place the portal along the northern wall of HG, around the midpoint between the Skyrim Office and the Morrowind Office. Upon activating the portal, the player would receive a messagebox with the sentence, "You cannot go this way...yet..." or whatever you(se) find more appropriate...

If not approved, well, then I won't do anything listed above. :D

I've got a few questions...

* I can send Yulghr & Hauk over to Tjernagel's to eat twice a day, and Yulghr has his own bed for the evening...where should Hauk go to sleep? Shall I drop a bedroll in Yulghr's private area?
* Would it be cool if I added a chair or two in the Skyrim Office? Yulghr & Hauk can stand all day without complaining, of course...
* I'm debating between using one of the two doors in the first photo at the link here as the (currently non-functional) entrance to Skyrim. The idea is I'll place them in a section of the wall along the north side of HG and make them "Initially Disabled." After the G.I.S. quest is done, the door is enabled and the section of the wall becomes disabled. I've put them both in game at the moment and they both function as desired (which is to say, they generate a message saying "You can't go this way...yet..." upon activation). However, I can't seem to decide which one I'd like better...I'm partial to the one on the left, but it has obvious hinges I can't adequately hide in the stone wall. Alternatively, I could use a shield as an activator (or just as decoration on a proper door) something like the second picture at the above link...thoughts/opinions?

Yes on the first two. Yes

About the door, I think the entrance into Skyrim will be done by removing a section of the wall and placing a trigger zone that will load the Skyrim worldspace when going trough. To stop the player from going trough when he isn't supposed to an invisible wall will be placed that will act like the invisible wall that surrounds Cyrodiil. A "You can't go this way...yet..." type of message should appear when bumping into the wall. The invisible wall will of course be disabled (and the trigger zone enabled) when going into Skyrim is made possible.

Cool -- I'll keep a door there for the time being, but I'll leave the invisible wall/trigger for more experienced/knowledgeable folk to add later... :D




EDIT: Erm, upon further investigation, Yulghr & Hauk will be required to stand for their working hours -- too many pathing issues with chairs in the office. Frown
