I'm still really disappointed with the lack of movement on such a potentially great feature. I really hope they put some time into developing (and explaining) this.

Trust me. It's coming.

We're doing the most we absolutely can to push a significant update for OOTP11 before the final patch.

Hoping this happens - really would like to see what you have in store.

Awesome. I'm very glad to hear it.

Bumping this for 12. I'd love to see a how-to guide for writing storylines and what you can and can't do with them.

There are a ton of new tokens/items that Andreas added over the beta process. Maybe he would be willing to give us a guide. I'll ask him in the beta forum.

ctorg · 06-22-2011, 02:16 PM

This is near the top of my list for things I'm excited about. The potential of this feature is huge. It can be everything from the injury engine to something that makes the game feel real.

Thanks, that would be wonderful.

kingcharlesxii · 07-07-2011, 05:23 PM

Any updates on this? I'd love to start modding.

Same here, it would be cool to get a list of tokens at the very least.

ctorg · 07-09-2011, 08:44 AM

Ditto here. It's getting frustrating to have such an awesome feature go so ignored.

kingcharlesxii · 07-29-2011, 05:05 PM

Monthly bump.

PSUColonel · 08-03-2011, 01:56 PM

I thought this was supposed to be a huge feature???

kingcharlesxii · 08-04-2011, 02:01 PM

I'm a bit busy now but I guess I'll start datamining the in-game file soon and trying to reverse engineer what is there and what a mod can do. I was hoping to avoid doing it since it will take a bit of time but I'm sick of waiting to use one of the coolest features in 12.

munstermash · 11-11-2011, 03:12 PM

Any updates on a how-to on editing the XML, you would think they could give us something.

bitmap · 12-08-2011, 08:39 PM

This feature is such a long running tease. I hate to think of all that potential I may or may not be missing out on.

I agree. It's maddening to have it sitting there for two versions, imagining the potential uses for it, without ever getting to explore them simply because we don't have any real indication from the company what it can actually do and not do.

sibilantecho · 12-19-2011, 06:21 PM

Do the story lines have any effect on the rest of the game, or are they purely cosmetic so far?

They definitely affect the game. They can change player characteristics, end careers, and more. They are potentially very powerful ways to create unique events within a universe.

kingcharlesxii · 01-20-2012, 01:41 PM

So, any chance of getting some information on this with 13? I still would love to write some storyline mods....
