Ive recently joined the modding crew and i just needed some help on how to spawn npc and such. There's been some threads on it but i just dont get it.

Anyways, what i want to do is make a mini storyline in the beginning of the game. I think endar spire is preety lame. what i need help on is that as soon you start the game. Trask Tells you get your equipment from the locker. I want to know how would i add my own Items into that same locker.

Another thing i need help on is on spawning NPC. I dont know how to, as i said above. After you get your equipment and such. you need trask in the order to open the doors. Once you open the last door, you'll see a republican soilder and sith trooper shooting at each other, but the republican dies.

I want to spawn 3 Dark Jedi in that same room that will attack you. in a line across each other. For example xXx ( Being x = Dark Jedis, X = Dark Jedi Leader) and what i want is that once you approach them. The leader will walk up to you and start a conversation with you. Then you get to fight him.

I want to learn how to Spawn/Add NPCs and add items into game objects such as containers, Lockers, Deadbodys (like the one on korriban's Caves). I also want to learn how give items to npc.


I just recently learned how to compile scripts, and make items, that preety much all i know how to do. Please Help :confused:

i already went over the threads lots of time. I just dont get this part

How to spawn a npc in an area:

It works exactly the same as a container:
1. "extract the On_enter script for the module". Check the .are file if you are unsure. Per example, when you enter the bar in NAr Shadaa, the script would be: a_306onenter.ncs
2. rename the script you just extracted to something else: exmaple old__a_306onenter.ncs
3. Create a new script:

Well, to find the On_enter script for a module, using whatever preferred tool of yours, either KT, Erfedit, ect... you would:
1. extract the .are file from the module you are planning on editing,
2. open it with a GFF editor and look for the On_Enter field,
3. and find and extract the script named in the onenter field
2. rename the script you just extracted to something else: exmaple old__a_306onenter.ncs
3. Create a new script:

Renaming the script doesnt exactly take any modding experience, and
