"Advanced Dialogue and Hidden Map Locations are mostly compatible if you put AD after HML in the load order. But there's one HML feature that currently doesn't work with AD (adding discovered locations from the "Where Is > Regional" menu). I'll be working on a fix for this shortly as I love HML."
So THAT is why I can't find any Temples of Dibella!
This seemingly minor mod actually adds so much depth to the game. To my surprise I found myself having a full conversation with a jester at a bar over beer. The dude got jokes.
Thank you for bringing a little more of Morrowind into Daggerfall.
Bit of a nitpick but Is it possible to be declined more politely if your reputation is high enough? It's a little immersion breaking being called a nuisance or insulted harshly after maxing it out my rep, especially after joining the Knights of the Dragon where you're meant to be respected by Daggerfall's people.
Kids actually don't get the "Buy a beer" option. That little guy isn't labeled a child in the internal DF data (a designation that really exists), so I assume he's a scrawny teenager. Plus it's the Middle Ages, beer is safer than water, and the drinking age in Tamriel isn't 21, so I'm going to leave this be.
Actually I don't mean to intrude but kids in mediaeval times actually drank very low alcohol beer. It was called buttered beer. And they had to do manual labour and stuff to keep their family afloat. Kidults really. Not saying that stuff was good of course. But it was those times.
I think you're mixing together a real type of beer from medieval times and "butterbeer" from Harry Potter. Harry Potter's "butterbeer" is a non-alcoholic beverage that kids drink. Actual medieval "buttered beer" is attested from a Tudor-era recipe, is not specifically for kids, and is very much alcoholic.
Excuse my drinks.. But some may know of this meeting. The nature of my alcoholic tendancy is darker still.. in the 15th century many things considered normal then were uncanny at best for us now. Including kids drinking low alcohol. Beer at least in England was safer to drink than water. Beer also was not very high in alcohol in those days since making it alcoholic wasn't the same process as factories and technology can now make more efficiently. Or so I was told. I unfortunately cannot find the video on YouTube that confirms all this. But I'm a long time subscriber to historical cooking channel. It's very fun to find out the uncanny of the past. I will share a link from YouTube if you wouldn't mind. I'll do some digging
Here it is! They recently must have changed their channel name! https://youtu.be/nAZZGlK4E3Y?si=-Et8jtoOxS0HddkG
Thanks for the kind words. It's also a group project! If you (or anyone else) is interested in writing dialogue or quests, hit us up on the Lysandus' Tomb Discord.
When I was translating the Dialogue. csv" file, I translated all the phrases "Any advice?" into Ukrainian "Що порадите?" and the phrase simply disappeared in the game. Could you please tell me how to fix it?
You're going to have to modify that phrase in the ADTalkWindow.cs class as well, since the class automatically adds the phrase to the player's list of known captions (it also adds Who are you? and Buy an ale/beer). There might be some other prickly issues like that, let me know if you run into them! I'll respond quicker on Discord.
I noticed that most of the topics don't contribute to Streetwise/Etiquette skill progress anymore, other than the default "Where am I" and location stuff. Might wanna look into it?
This is perhaps a bit silly, but could you add a "Thank you" dialogue option? I always feel a little funny when I get some real help from an NPC and then I'm just like "bye" and walk away.
I won't add a "Thank you" topic myself but I'm working on opening up the mod to accept dialogue files from other modders. Once I've got that system worked out then adding a "Thank you" topic would be trivial and you can release it as your own mod.

This feels very pedantic to say but there's a small mistake in one of the dialogue options.
So THAT is why I can't find any Temples of Dibella!
This being worked on?
Thank you for bringing a little more of Morrowind into Daggerfall.
No issues so far on Android.
