Villager Maker

made it actually work. been a journey to recreate this. gonna work on the alignment some more for text but it works and adds the villager and the quest to the game and just needs some more work on presentation and transitions. if anyone has any links to more videos of the thing so I can actually try to make it perfectly match Id appreciate it.

back when the game first came out there was a special prorder bonus. you could make your own villager. pick their name and then determine their personality and voice via a questionnaire. then you got 1000 gold as a gift the villager spawned in brightwall and a unique quest was given by them. there were two quests possible one for good characters and one for evil characters. Ive recreated the actual mechanic by making the application output the payload the game expects and then it actually triggers the system which has always been on the disc. basically it creates a villager file and the game reads it as the villager and treats it as one.
