Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 - The Modding Dungeon Divinity - Original Sin 2 - Modding General How to recreate the Basic level?

Hey all,

I'm trying to recreate the basic level out of a empty level for the sake of learning the basics.

I did the following,

1. Create a terrain (128x128) with a texture.
2. Add 4x StartPoint (from the trigger tab).
3. Add a LightProbe

- after this I clicked the: switch game/editor button but then I get a black screen. With only the UI and a black minimap.

What important steps did I miss? I know I could just start of with using a Basic level but as I said I'm trying the learn the basics here.

Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks,

Duncan

Have a look at http://larian.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=611952#Post611952

You are getting a black screen cause you need to place down an AI seeder and generate it's pathing first.

First of all thanks for the quick replies.

So I did these following steps:

1. Create a terrain (128x128) with a texture.
2. Add 4x StartPoint (from the trigger tab).
3. Add a LightProbe.
4. Add a character (Humans_Male_armor_000).
5. Set that character to player.
6. On the AI panel click full generate.
7. Click the switch to Game/Editor button.

Now it solved my problem partially.
The editor decides to create one extra model for my party.
(one of the ingame companions Beast, Fane, Sebille, The Red Prince etc.)
This character is placed somewhere random on the map not even near the starting triggers.

Now if I click the other portrait the one of Humans_Male_armor_000 it does all work propperly and fine like it should.

So my new question is how do I make sure the editor does not spawn in that extra companion?

Also if I try to delete this extra companion its impossible and get this message: "the object is locked by source control".

Update:
Tried a new project without loading the story data. Did the same steps,
same problem but instead of a story companion it now places a "Dummy" model randomly on the map (outside the playable area).
Thanks,

Still stuck on this issue if anyone has the sollution please let me know!

It is probably related to the fact that we don't have a character creation script specific for independent mods yet. We hope to finish it in the course of next week.

Thanks it ok I found a work around by reloading the level.
I will wait for the patch and see what happens I'll keep you updated in this post.
