While I wholly support my game being modded, I wouldn't hold my breath for someone picking this up for modding. I've had people try before giving up before. The internals are pretty complex, unfortunately. That said, if someone is brave enough to try, I will do my best to help them.
What if you tried creating a mod creating tool, to make it easier, which has all the tools built into it that can help with the complex internals. Just an idea, been forever since I've done programming, and my programming knowledge was very basic, so, I'm likely wrong, and it's likely harder to create a modding tool for the game then it would be to make a mod.
That would be working on the assumption that there's some core issue that makes the internal workings of the games complicated, rather than the reality of the content representation being just overall complicated. And with the actual situation being the latter, I've found it more worthwhile to automate the details where I can. I have a set of tutorials on my blog discussing adding a very simple event to the game in any case, you can see what the issue is from there:
sonotink Sounds like when you're saying modding you mean what I'd call user developed content (assuming Eso allows that), but will try to cover both in case I missed something
Firstly, the game is open source. The engine is not, the game however is and all of the game mechanics are coded inside of the game rather than hardcoded into the engine. As such you can add user content, develop full blown mods that alter or extend the way anything functions or tear down the game to 0 and start over with your own concept.
FSA allow for more free form code flow, it's not dissimilar to how jumping to labels works in Ren'py or how Twine works in general, but it has some additional quirks to it.
That kind of approach was the point of writing those tutorials, yes. It's what happens with more involved content that starts getting people lost. Things like sex-scenes, which I feel should be a popular target for modding, are more coding heavy than what's presented in the tutorial and, if you want everything to run without a hitch, need to be written to integrate with other sex scenes.
First off, the language isn't object oriented. However referencing the PC, NPCs or even specific objects you construct is very much possible - it just doesn't follow OOP principles. It does however require a bit more coding. There are examples in the source code as to how to do this, but I'd need more specific applications to point out examples of them. Some of the things in the wizards section can be used to manipulate these things without showing them to you directly. For example the posibility of setting up checks against the stats of a NPC or manipulating a NPC's relationship with the PC. Again, specific answer would require more specific questions.
I'm still on my usual weekly update schedule, save for when life gets in the way and things need to get postponed.
well it would show that you a re a game dev and not just an user
The version in this thread is 0.49, the currently posted version is (purely accidentally) version 0.149, the current in development version is moving towards version 0.158. I still mostly do weekly updates, apart from some spots of being sick. If you find the updates/progress satisfactory is not my concern.
You can find the latest version here -
Nothing.
Yes. Also judging by the tone of your reply here, it's not for you anyway.
My Panda had put it into quarantine in the second i clicked on it, signed as W32/exploit
