I think the commentary is more that the riot happens under Anora, but not at all under Alistair.

This implies that either the famine or the riots were preventable or maybe even caused by Anora's actions.

Anora probably devoted ressources on more important things, hence the famine.

Human noble scene, check!
(After Howe's death)

Oh, this is just what I always wished for!  HNF is my favourite playthrough and it always blows my mind that after Howe is killed no one says a thing to my PC.  It shocked me the first playthrough.  This, and the talk with Arl Eamon after he is cured bothered me.  Eamon makes y'all Champions of Redcliffe, hands over a shield, but never mentions your parents, whom he must have known very well.

cmessaz, this is terrific  :wub:

I'm aware that, too. It's not implausible but it's equally valid to assume she might have simply "failed" at something.

I'm aware of this theory. It's not implausible but it's equally valid to assume she might have simply failed at something.

Perhaps, but it being writen in the same slide that showcase Anora's achievements, I am more inclined to the theory that she devoted ressources elsewhere like bolstering trade and bulding a university.
Even in the case of a failure on Anora's part, I see her achievements including the quelling of the riot, to supercede it, but that's just me.

DP, sorry.

That's about all I have to say about your new scene.

Except for :wizard::wizard: you're awesome!

This. Sabreen captured my thoughts eloquently, I have nothing to add except I can't wait!

Nice work on the extra scenes, cmessaz! I admire your toolset dedication -- I know it's been a love/hate relationship for ya.

Alistair says: Don't I look nice with Sandi's videocard update?







Look at the quickbar!!





The party says: Whoa...

Oh, there is one thing.... He's less happy to give up the throne to Anora if hardened. He's a lot more clear on not wanting her to be queen. He won't get really mad, or anything, but while an unhardened Alistair is just relieved, a hardened one has some regrets about it.

Uh oh...top of the page and no new pictures....uh..... Okay, here's a rough draft of an illustration for my story:

That's a nice one!  All you talented toolset people.  I took one look at it, read a few VO lines and haven't looked at it since.

Thanks! I have to do something about that goblet, though. Silver just doesn't say 'sad life in a small town.'

His demeanor definitely does.

That's a great shot, Sandi! Congrats on the new video card. BTW I dl'ed the Dalish Ceremonial Armor mod, hoping it would spawn in Awakening (it didn't), but it's very nice. I was thinking it could be a post-Nature of the Beast thing, like maybe Varathorn makes it for you as an extra reward or out of nostalgia for Dad. Just FYI. I think yukielf has also been seen wearing it.

Ok, I am doing homework now (yay) but am going to start on the CE scene. I was going to attempt a get together with daddy, Shianni, Alistair and Soris. BUT, since it is possible for everyone to hate you idk if that's a good idea. Suggestions?

They only all hate you if you take the bribe and very, very few people do that. Soris is the one most likely to be bitter if you never spoke up at the beginning or admitted he was involved and he was arrested and in the dungeon for a year but I can see him sucking it up for a reunion to make his sister and the uncle who is giving him a place to stay happy.

Right. Well, I can do 2 things. I *think* I can make 2 scenes and seperate them by plot flag. So hostile family = like a walk around the alienage tree, and not hostile = family time. Or I can just not let anything play for hostile family.

The plot flag is the way to go, for sure. I haven't even touched that stuff. It's hard enough just making a chest appear in camp The hostile family is a little complex, though, since the player may of may not be roleplaying that Alistair knows what you did. Tricky!

Not having anything play for hostile family is a good punishment for being a jerk:P

[cmessaz]

I can do either. I think a simple walk with Alistair around the alienage tree. As they walk away, she could look at her old home, turn around and walk away, then fade out.

Would it matter if Alistair knew, though? I thought the whole reason you'd have a non-family cutscene was because your family hates you and kicks you out of the house when you show up.

It could make a difference to Alistair's approach to what's going on, if one wanted to explore that. If your family hates you and he doesn't know why, you could easily have a different set of facial expressions, etc., than if he knows and is showing that he doesn't care. On the other hand, the more you go into that sort of thing, the more plot flags/approval ratings you'd have to pay attention to. It could get very complex. Perhaps better to ignore such things, although it would be an interesting challenge. The difference isn't trivial, though.

Due to likelyhood of many conflicts, I really didn't want to add anything post-coronation. Maybe I will at some point though. Good idea!

Yeah, cutscenes are really the only thing I have somewhat figured out in the toolset. I could probably make the scene easy enough but getting anything in game makes my brain hurt. Add on in game and post coronation...I think my brain might explode.
