.npc say 'text'

But it depends what you mean by 'talk'

[kanqaz]

thx stephtorrent

i think he means making him talk every time you go past him, or buy/sell at him. not whenever a GM walks by.

[Steph]

Really? I thought he meant just to freak out the people on his server, which is exactly what I do.

[Barlas the Death Knight]

xD sometimes me too.

But I do that because i can.

[King Shaun]

Hehe, I knew you could do that, can anyone tell me how I can make them say something when you click on them..

So like this...

You click on a NPC like you would with a quest.
It comes up with like a paper interface.
And you have your custom writing..

How would I do that?

Many kind regards,
Shaun.

oooo thats easy you mean like some kind of "custom" quest paper???

[Spartansp]

ok if want just the "paper" or the scroll to be changed go into your navicat open up npc_text you will se something like this:

1 1 Hey there, . How can I help you? Hey there, . How can I help you? 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

that is the "default text just go to the bottom add a new line changing whatever you want and save..
then upennpc_gossip_text and you will se something like this:

68 933

first number is your NPC entry ID and second the ID of the text marked in red before...
now if you want it to say something in the chat box you need to open npc_monstersay and add one at the bottom like somthing like this

9999 1 50 0 11 Spartansp Look at me!! Come on i know you want to look at me!! Whatever i hate you!!!

[King Shaun]

[waakkit2]

Wait...why not just use lua scripts then?

[Spartansp]

then why get into compiling and scripting when you can make it in the database ?
