Scripting Question

Post by Krazzikk »

Hello! I would like to know how to make a dungeon where it automatically sets your party.

For example I would be able to make a dungeon where you only have one character and they have X stats, etc.

Be careful to have a very good reason for this. Plus, make sure you warn the player about it so we don't waste time making a custom party.

What would a good reason be? I wanted to do it so it would support the story line.

The storyline needs to be impressive to force players to play certain classes (no rogues, only rogues, etc).

Check out The Awakening of Taarnab or The Wine Merchant's Basement for mods that do something similar to this and do it so well that most people just go along with it to enjoy the experience.

I can't unpack it. It says " C:\Users\Josh\Desktop\aot_source.zip: The archive is either in unknown format or damaged" when I try to unpack it with winrar

you've got a corrupted download, I had to try downloading a few times before I got it completely since the server seems to cut off your download from time to time, ended up using FlashGet download manager to get it completely

Huh, that's what I thought, but I tried downloading it with Firefox and Chrome which is why I was confused. I'll try FlashGet then.
