Hostile NPC glitch

if you can upload and link me to your saved game (preferably in Neverwinter City where things are borked) i'll have a look,


otherwise there's "too many variables" ...

ok got it.

yea, that's not right, all the citizens are friggin hostile ...

man, what did you do lol. Every *custom faction* in the module hates your party - not only that, they all appear to have changed to STANDARD_FACTION_HOSTILE (which hates everybody anyway.)

the file Repute.FAC is corrupt inside the save.

I'll try to swap it with one from an old save i have here,

here's a download of the (hopefully fixed) save

with no small amount of luck and persistence I got it working on my machine. I don't know what the cause was, but the file Repute.FAC inside the Neverwinter City module basically got blanked somehow, so i inserted a good one from an old save i have (at about the same point in the game). That re-enabled the OC's custom factions, which then let me script all sorts of instanced creatures neutral again. I almost missed Sand ... there may well be others hanging around that are still hostile.

(FactionHostile is the first entry in the default faction table, so that's what everything changed into.)

I noticed what looks like cyrillic in one of the saved files:
{1000}Квартал Доков

The fault *might* have been caused by an incompatability among the language, Nwn2, and the OS.

or another possiblity is that your system security settings simply didn't allow that file to write to the harddrive when it had to ... but i'm still guessing that it was a language-issue.


On the good side, I glanced at the Repute.FAC files in the other saved modules and they all look okay. If you come across another hostile who should be friendly, or a friendly who should be hostile, I can give you a script to run from the console that should take care of it; but if a bigger problem persists you'd do much better to find another way. (eg, English version) but i really don't know what caused it

hopefully it works on your end too,

can you compile a script ..?

// 'stophostile'
//
// Put this script in your \Override folder and compile it.
//
// Right-click target a non PC-faction creature and execute this script from the
// console, while controlling your main character.
//
// `
// DebugMode 1
// RunScript stophostile
// DebugMode 0
// `


// Changes player's current target to the standard COMMONER faction.
void main()
{
    object oTarget = GetPlayerCurrentTarget(OBJECT_SELF);
    if (GetIsObjectValid(oTarget)
        && GetObjectType(oTarget) == OBJECT_TYPE_CREATURE
        && !GetIsObjectValid(GetFactionLeader(oTarget)))
    {
        SendMessageToPC(OBJECT_SELF, "<c=blue>stophostile :</c> " + GetName(oTarget)
                + " ( " + GetTag(oTarget) + " ) is now a member of the Commoner faction.");

        ChangeToStandardFaction(oTarget, STANDARD_FACTION_COMMONER);
        AssignCommand(oTarget, ClearAllActions(TRUE));
    }
    else
        SendMessageToPC(OBJECT_SELF, "<c=blue>stophostile :</c> <c=red>ERROR : </c> target a non-party creature");
}
 

/cheers !
