Enemies inside chests? [message #60827]

Hey there,
I was wondering if anyone had done anything like this yet?
I've been searching the forum for a while now but have only found ways to spawn items.
If anyone is bored and has nothing better to do,
I'd like to request some chests with enemies inside,
maybe make the chest disappear after?
or barrels might work...
I was thinking they should be Silver Chests,
so you can't open a high level monster chest until you've been playing for a while.

I know in the child oakvale quest some of those warehouse barrels have beetles in them. You might try studying those and seeing where it leads.

Read the site rules, as well as individual thread rules, stickies and announcements, and use search, or you will have smartassy or exasperated ownage rained down upon you by the site's crack team of mods and admins. Also, you can find all you need to get started on modding here.

No, the way that the chests work makes enemies inside of chests a nice but impossible idea. Barrels on the other hand at least have something to work with, though still it's not much as it only works with the executable. What you could try doing is making a barrel script with NOVI_Barrel for the ScriptName line. This is what tells Fable to put a beetle there when the barrel is destroyed. Silverback played around with the QNOVI for a long time and got some pretty cool results. The things to play with are what creature is in the barrel, how many of the creatures will be in the barrel and how long they go before dying automatically. But that's higher level hacking involving the executable.

If you want to make it such that people can't open up silver key chests and get powerful weapons early on in the game, that's a balance thing. Right now I'm working on changing a great deal of game mechanics and gameplay balance aspects. You can check out that discussion here.
