Vlan Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 all new npcs for bgt? really excited as well! Also, will there be any additional bg1 quests for the npcs?
Glam Vrock Posted October 14, 2014 Author Posted October 14, 2014 There will be at least two quests, one for Littlun and one for Flara. (Or, to give them their full names, Littlun Plunkett and Flara Burnheart.) Others are up in the air. Ideally everyone will get one, but I don't want to throw them in just for the sake of having them. They need to develop the characters in some way.
Vlan Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Well, as long as they comment on certain and important situations in BG1 (like the BG1 NPC project did) everything is fine with me. Any plans on doing some crossbanter with Flinch, Ascalon Breagar or Isra?
Glam Vrock Posted October 16, 2014 Author Posted October 16, 2014 The thing about crossmodding (I assume?) is that you need to work with the other author. If I were an experienced modder and some newbie came up and said "Hey, I've made FIVE NPCS here, how about you and I write a set of banters for each one?" I don't think I'd be too enthusiastic. If it is going to happen, it'd be after the the characters get released. Then at least people can get a feel for them and decide whether they suck or not before getting back to me. I've also never heard of Ascalon Breagar. Where's it hosted?
Vlan Posted October 16, 2014 Posted October 16, 2014 Hosted at kerzenburg-forums. Download servers seems to be down atm. And Ascalon breagar is a very very good dwarven npc mod which lasts from BG1 to ToB. The best BG1 npc mod out there, imo.
Glam Vrock Posted October 16, 2014 Author Posted October 16, 2014 Oh, it's a German mod. Unfortunately I don't speak German, so there's not much I can do there. Nobody wants to read dialogue written in Google Translatese.
kreso Posted October 16, 2014 Posted October 16, 2014 And Ascalon breagar is a very very good dwarven npc mod which lasts from BG1 to ToB. The best BG1 npc mod out there, imo. Seconded. Nobody wants to read dialogue written in Google Translatese. Seconded. Iirc, translation is going through a revision atm, but I don't know when and if ever it will be done. These NPCs look stunning, I must say.
Janissary Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 Hmm, are all five npc's meant to work together as a sort of team evil canon party? Curious to see how this might flow into BG2 territory, ooh and the quests. Littlun and Flara seem especially awesome. And kudo's on t-he gallows humor, I can't remember anyone putting in any content referencing the rather garish/gruesome bandit scalping, but -that- little bit is hilarious.
Glam Vrock Posted November 16, 2014 Author Posted November 16, 2014 They're not all evil. Littlun's good, Moidre and Flara are neutral and will ignore reputation (at least in Tutu/BGT.) But they are part of a pack. They can stand on their own as full NPCs, but you will get some extra content (like the scalping dialogue) by using them all together.
Glam Vrock Posted December 8, 2014 Author Posted December 8, 2014 so, how are things going? Alright, progress report! Littlun and Moidre are finished aside from testing and maybe a few more interjections. Always hard to know when to stop with those. Writing for Flara is done, and she's being coded in between me typing this. Dave's banters are finished, and his other dialogue is 50-60% done. Here's a bit of Littlun's first talk with the player:
