Silver dragon, how do i change flags? [solved-ish]

Post by AciD|Mist »

Hi, first off all: Good job on the mod i really love it

Now, with that being said:

Im stuck with the bug where the silver dragon gets hostile at the end of the PDX mission.
Ive read that you can overcome this by changing some flags, whatever that is.

So my question is: how do i do it exactly?
because WC hates me (everybody is hostile), so going up to his office to get my reward if i should kill dragon isnt worth bothering for :)

thanks for any help

Have you tried killing SD and seeing if the guards turn friendly again?

Otherwise, these are the flags SD sets when you talk to him after saving him:

HAS_DDHolocom

well, after some bugging around ive found it.

I didnt use the flags you gave me, they didnt work.
I changed the flags beloning to silver dragon, making him friendly again (everything false, except MET dragon and the 'dragon said hi'flag or something), but he didnt follow me or did anything else.
Then I changed the SD_Saved flag (cant remember the name) while standing next to him and he initiated the dialog that was supposed to occur.

great!

I hope this might help anybody with the same problem, although its not really written in a clear and understandable language :)

They didn't work for WHAT exactly?

The flags I sent you are the flags SD sets when you talk to him after rescuing him. So you were supposed to go back to PDX after setting them and talk to Kashue.

Hopefully your own fix won't cause any other problem.

ok, maybe they did work. I didnt go back to PDX, didnt think that far...

And i think the fix wont do alot of damage, I just 'reset' everything like it was just after i first talked to SD.
and when i set the value of SD_Saved to true, it initiated the next part: the dialog where he gives you the holocom. And when he left, it would trigger the 'SD in temple'-flag to switch to true.

not that im trying to say I really understand the flag system, but I think I got lucky (god, i hope i got lucky #-o :) )
