There seems to be a handful of these around, but I can't find any sort of tutorial on how it's achieved. It seems like it's a lot of different things, but it's something I'd love to try. Just don't know where to start.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. :)

EDIT: Did spot one over in the BG:EE Modding section. Just looking for more.

    Do you mean like, a mod NPC? If so, Kulyok has some great tutorials on coding and such.

    Here's one such helpful tutorial: http://forums.pocketplane.net/index.php/topic,25198.0.html

    I'd also highly recommend taking a look at her Branwen NPC for starters, who I believe has a tutorial built into her code.

    Thanks, looks helpful

    Do you know where I can get WeiDU/Weimar Dialog Utilities? All the links seem to be broken. Cheers.

    Ah, thank you for your correction @subtledoctor ! I haven't coded in years, so I'm not up-to-date on the latest releases. I'd like to, but life keeps getting the way *sigh*

    Thanks for all the help. Got my first NPC into the game up and running with some basic dialogue. Difficult but interesting process.
    Working on a NG Sorcerer, just in case I actually make something worth sharing. BG seems to lack such options.
    One last thing, is it possible to patch something into the Dialog.tlk? I made a custom item, but only through manually editing the file. If I were to make and release something, this method would of course overwrite everything else that uses the file.

    EDIT: Worked out the last bit into the tp2 file.

    Anyways I'm no writer, but I'm proud of my first little go at an NPC ^^

    If anybody knows how you script the level-dependency, it'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
