How does one acquire the strange flowers that you feed to the cows to get them to milk twice as fast? I never knew this before.

Maybe that the PC must be a thief... as the indications in script.tra are :

@550626 = ~Upon careful investigation of the visible footprints, you have noticed some cattle tracks leading close to the northeastern portion of the wall; near the construction site. You wonder what attracts their attention to this point, causing them to visit this area on such a regular basis...~

I didn't succeed in finding the flowers, too.

But I thought that happens when you use the tracking ability.

SPCL922 is to be used and is tracking.
block from AR3500:

IF
	AreaCheckObject("AR3500",Player1)
	Global("SPCL922","GLOBAL",1)
	Global("CbBushRevealed","AR3500",0)
THEN
	RESPONSE #100
		DisplayStringHead(Player1,89705) // Upon careful investigation of the visible footprints, you have noticed some cattle tracks leading close to the northeastern portion of the wall; near the construction site. You wonder what attracts their attention to this point, causing them to visit this area on such a regular basis...
		ContainerEnable("Bush",TRUE)
		SetGlobal("CbBushRevealed","AR3500",1)
		Continue()
END

I probably do not know what I am talking about but would it make sense if that Global("SPCL922","GLOBAL",1) was Global("SPCL922","LOCAL",1)?
I can cast the ability but not sure how the Global("SPCL922","GLOBAL",1) gets set. This may alternatively solve the cut scene stop with Imoen so I want to see if it works in a solid fashion. If I TAB key, I can see the bush (container) highlight but can't click on it or open it in normal circumstances.

Ok it works if I SetGlobal("SPCL922","GLOBAL",1) and walk out to the AR3500, instantly says on "careful investigation you notice the cows attracted to a bush and wonder what attracts them there."<<<paraphrase Then it is a container to be opened with the strange flowers.

The cows eat the flowers, so that works. I just don't think that Global sets and not sure if it should be a LOCALS instead of GLOBAL. If I use the tracking Special Power, does that set a LOCAL variable? Not sure what sets it if it is suppose to be a GLobal. Acquiring the ability after chores does not set the Global.

glad you found that.... Be sure not to skip final cutscenes then... ;D

[Hoppy]

Long Live the King!!!. Glad to see you King Diamond!

I am slowly piecing it together, LOL ! Ummm, I still don"t know how the Global("SPCL922","GLOBAL",1) from AR3500. BCS gets set.
It just says IF
Global("SPCL922","GLOBAL",1)

Any clues where I should look, or maybe I am not doing it right. I just manually set it for now. I would love to get it to work without CLUA cheats.

Thanks for all of your help, past, present and future!

HINT: Each daily set of abilities has one that could speed up chores completion significally. When you choose the right sequence, you may end with all the chores done in 10 minutes or so....

If you're still waiting for a clue about milking cows just check my previous post once again - everything is there...
You've answered your own question already....

[Hoppy]

I guess I get the ability, but I cast it and cast it and it says "you cannot discern what creatures inhabit this area". This is on day 2 with 8 pails of milk. Maybe I don't have correct INT or WIS or something? I am clueless as to how that container opens.

[King Diamond]

I can only say that you possibly bugged your game by playing with GLOBAL's or some other mods that modified tracking innate spell. That container must not even be visible without spell cast outdoor....

[Hoppy]

I started a new game and tried it. I can only see the container if I <tab> key. So I know where it is. I will post weidu here and check in my files of
mods that changed tracking.

I found it in REFINEMENTS\backup\10 folder. I replaced in override folder and it is working! YAY!! I will post in my megamod runthrough and let the bigg know. Now I can find the flowers.

Got Milk?

Thanks King Diamond, again, as it was a compatibility issue. The mod works fine.


Off topic- are you coming back soon to do some more updates/new versions for the big mods?




EDIT: YAY!!!! I saw the secret missing cutscene with the cows at the end of the chores part. Too funny!
