Creating new quests

I am new to this kind of stuff, and the problem is most likely something small and stupid...

I know that should be asimple thing yet i am trying to get it working since like two days. I got to the point where it shows the yellow shield above NPCs head(like if it had a quest for u), but when u actually talk to it, he only offers you to see him next time.

So thats what i do -

Clone some NPC like general summer. -rename, new id(199999), new initial talk thing

Clone some monsters(array sentry) - rename, new IDs(200001-200004), new stats, new drops

clone some quest(where u have to kill monsters) - rename, new id(300001-300004, add quest and reward npc(199999), change mob id in errands and change rewards

than clone activate(300005) and recieve quest(300006) things for the cloned npc, and put the quest numbers(200001-200004) in there

add those activate recieve things for the npc

put the npc and mobs into npcgendata

restart given map

everything shows up and works as supposed to, besides quests. those dont even show up in chat window.

i tried a really lot fo things, changed just about everything, and ran out of ideas.

using staskedit, seledit, snpcedit


any help appreciated : )
thx

dont use ids greater than 30k, in some cases server and client dont't like them

i'am using ID 30k++ for NPC, 40k++ For Weapon, 50k++ For Mobs, 60k++ Armor's, 70++ For Quest. and it's okey, no problem with that

My genies pets are 40k+ And my other customs mounts also :mellow:

i got to around wings/mounts@60k weapons 45k 50k mobs/npcs
most of my id's (customs are more than) +50k i don't think it matters much i go with the max limit it's *in el.data* 65535 when i tryed added more than that it mostly didn't worked
and anyways i have quest issue as well tryed to copy Lucky Coral quest to make my own "lottery" and it didn't start the id was 37k tryed lower as well but it didn't worked

You can also use sub-zero IDs.

fact is we used IDs with 30k+ in tasks.data for teleportation - thoose didn't show up in illusion stone

I'm using ID 30k+ for my rank gears and it works :mellow:

my nirvana teleport and GV teleport at ilusion stone using ID 90K at task.data and it show up.

well other instances work properly with just about any ID, so im doubt that would be the problem.

got to the point where u can actually take the parent quest of the quest, than when u woulkd get the actual quest it says "invalid mission".

whatever, gonna keep on trying, and thx for the responses anyway
