How make patrols for Monsters and Guards?

[Vlad_III]

Hello.

I want make the monsters actives in my chronicle (moving, patrolling) and not just attack when they see a Player...

I have found in the file named "codex" an interesting script "walkCycle". I think I can use it to make patrols for the Actors. But when I use it in the tagID 11 called SCRIPT, nothing happens 

A little idea, Javokis?


PS: sorry for my english so bad

WalkCycle scripts follow along path points. Here's a little tut on how to create path points in Embrace:

Ok!

But I dont know how to use embrace to modify an existing map 
No others solutions to apply the moving script?

I hope it s not particulary difficult to make these path points.
What i must do to open the map of my chronicle...

A little tuto in video should help us i believe

Hello dear modder.

Me again, my question is always on the moving NPC's...

I'am a noob with The Embrace program, so can I make Patrols using only scripts in the Template Editor??
I just want my monsters don't stay like stones when they dont see an ennemie. I dont need complexe patrols, just moving (random move will be good too)

I hope it s possible to dot it without the Embrace...

Really no other solution in order to move NPC without using embrace? 

No possibility to adapt or change the 'WalkCycle script' and apply it... This is the last obstacle for my chronical

It's not that hard. If you know how to make a sliding door slide then you should be able to take that concept and make an npc walk cycle work. Same principle as a sliding door.

I dont try to bulid a sliding door yet...

It's not a difficulty for me to make move NPC using the interested spots or walkcycle with embrace.
But I dont want use Embrace, because I use a map for my chronical (CrimsonKeep) that dont have a file .map  So, I cant use Embrace!
I think i need a new script (like a walkcycle modified) to make move NPC's.

Perhaps sliding door doesn't use Embrace but i dont believe...

I made a feature in Emod 1.8 that allows for walkcycles without embrace. The Emod 1.8 walkcycle feature is not very user friendly and I didn't make a tutorial for it.

If you have a script or something like this that i can copy and use for walkcycles without embrace I'm very interested  

I will serach a little bit if I can find your emod 1.8 walkcycle

[Javokis]

Last i checked, it's integrated into the mod. You would have to use emod 1.8 to get it to work.
