TGEConEd - Torque Conversation Editor
by Stefan Beffy Moises · 12/03/2002 (8:25 am) · 7 comments
Some features:
- create/edit/save any number of conversation files
- associate dialog sequences with sound files
- supports basic dialogs and multiple choice dialogs with unlimited number of answers
- "live-editing" of conversation files, conversations are updated without restarting the engine
- support for multiple trigger events
- conversations can be started/stopped based on the FOV of the NPC
- "personalization": you can use the vars and , they are replaced in the in-game dialogs with the "real" names then
- you can also cross-link words/phrases to jump to another dialog sequence, or you can specify an 'explanation link' which then pops up a sub-sequence with the explanation text in the upper right corner of the GUI - this explanation is just a normal conversation sequence and you can use the editor to create/edit it, of course
- you can specify an image for the current NPC in the GUI
- you can specify function names and parameters instead of text answers now, too, and start custom actions if the player selects specific answers in a multiple-choice dialog
- a history feature which lets you scroll through all previous dialogs...
- a basic objectives/condition system which lets you specify certain conditions/objectives that must be reached by the player before a certain dialog sequence is played - you can change the status of objectives by calling setCondition("magicKeyFound","true"); in-game, e.g.

I am unsure how to specify which conversation is played after having already spoken once. It seems like once I talk to the NPC whenever, the next time I talk it plays the default "leave me alone" conversation.
I want the first conversation to play unless a condition has been met. Let's say I talk to the NPC and he says "Go get the medalion and bring it back." Then I talk to him again and he says "Did you bring the medalion?" untill I give him the medalion. After giving the medalion he says "You already brought me the medalion, thanks".
Is this possible and if so, how do I do it.
Thanks

I am using the TGEConEd 1.0 resource you made and have a few questions. I read the docs at the tork zenkal website before posting.I am unsure how to specify which conversation is played after having already spoken once.

Is this resource mirrored anywhere else since I'm getting dns errors trying to follow the links?

Fixed the links :) I should probably rewrite this thingy one day, but it should still work I guess... there was another Conversation Editor in the resources, too, btw.
