Want to skip the plot

Post by NewtSoup » Wed, 22. Mar 17, 19:15

I've recently started a humble trader start where I'm doing as much as possible by remote and I'm determined to never fire a shot myself.

As such I'd like to skip the main plot but leave the hub available. Digging through the forums I've found something that should help me do just that but I have a question or two and rather than engage in necromancy I've started a new topic to ask my questions.

1) How do I install this "script" / MD thingy?
2) How can I apply it to my current game?

I don't really want to start over at this point.

If there's no way to make the MD apply to my save game is there a way I can use the console to trigger a "plot finished" event?

Below is the code I found.

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> 
<?xml-stylesheet href="director.xsl" type="text/xsl" ?> 
<director name="AP Plot Skip" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="director.xsd"> 
  <cues> 
    <cue name="APPlotSkip01"> 
      <condition> 
        <check_value value="{player.age}" min="10s"/> 
      </condition> 
      <action> 
        <set_value name="Albion Prelude Plot Ended" exact="1"/> 
      </action> 
    </cue> 
  </cues> 
</director>

1) Copy the code into an xml file, create a "director" folder in your "addon" directory and put the xml file there.
2) If your game isn't set to modified already, either activate the Script Editor or create a blank text file called modified.txt in your director folder.
