Quest FAQ

[The Old Ye Bard]

Q. What is the Quest Forum about?

A. The Quest Forum is the place where quests for Black Marsh are made.

Q. Can I make a quest?

A. Yes, however to get it published you must meet the standards you are given?

Q. What?! Standards?! Do I have to?

A. The "Standards" are merely for keeping quests organised, so that when it comes to implementing it is easy for the modder to understand and work with.

The standards are:

*A set location.

*A set reward.

*Is actually plausible (like it isn't imposible to script).

*Is easy to follow.

*It is completly agreed upon by everyone that posts (If there is any problems it is talked through until whatever probelm is resolved).

*Gramatically correct.

*Lore Correct.

Q. That easy enough, but where do I get the Lore from?

A. Either TIL or UESP

Q. So who gives my Quest the OK?

A. That would be me, once your quest is finalised and everyone is happy, then I will move it to the published Quest section, ready for a modder to take and implement.

Q. So what is with this "Faction" thing?

A. Factions are a long line of quests that tie into together (which are often called "questlines").

Q. So can I make up a faction?

A. No, because as it is we already have alot of Factions, both claimed and unclaimed, if there are anymore factions to be made, they must have a (very) stong basis in Lore.

Q. So I can't design a faction?

A. Yes you can, there are still factions to be claimed, and there are still factions to be put up to be claimed.

Q. So what if I want to only make one quest in a questline, but not a whole faction?

A. This can vary, but if you ask the person already incharge of the faction to design of the quests they might let you, however ths varies from person to person so don't get angry if they turn down your offer.

Q. So what this thing with "Note" and "Location" at the start of a quest.

A. The "Note" is for when you need to explain something outside of the quest, or state that you need a retex or a new model. The "Location" is an indepth list of Locations featured in your quest, so that we know what you need for the quest (e.g. you need a cave made).

Q. Is that all I need to know?

A. Yes, however if you, or anyone else has a question that has not been covered, please post here so that I can include it in the FAQ.

Here is how you need to layout your quest.

*Main Location*, *Quest Name* (for the thread name)

In you post:

Note: I need blah blah made (preferibly a new model if posible but a retex will do), and this is also the Count/Countess/Village Leader quest for X Town (or city).

Location: *name* Town/ *name* cave/ *name* city

This quest begins in *name* city/place/area, where blah blah blah.....

Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah.

And as a reward you are given X thing from X person for doing X thing.

End.
