Hi, I am in the process of retroporting all the quests in Cata, to WOTLK. I retroported easily all the cata quests,creatures, POI, and all the easy quests likekill 6 pigs, or get x item to Y npc, are alredy done.
So I have some questions regarding, more complex quests. I hope this helps other people doing customs quests, of course also.
1- How do I make a quest change phases and then return me to the main phase after it is complete?
2- How do I make an NPC follow me when a quest is accepted and stops following me after it is done?
3- How do I make a game object, do stuff, like summon an NPC?
Amaroth said "You have to use SmartGameObjectAI instead of SmartAI in gameobject_template, and source_type=1 in smart_scripts. Thats all. The rest is just up to correct choice of events and actions."
But, I dont understand the mechanics of an object. For example smartAI for an NPC can react to being damaged, healed, etc. But I can relate this to a GO.
4- How do I make a quest play a custom cinematic? I have seen that some in game cinematics, are stored in patches, so Howdo I activate them?
Thanks again for your time. And I hope this becomes some kind of manual for custom quests!
