Editor: creating dialog and journal entries.

Or alternatively use addtopic function.

No, I wasn't aware of that. The tutorial here http://wiki.theassimilationlab.com/mmw/ ... _Morrowind made no mention of it (though it appears to be doing it).
I will modify the text to include the topic and see what happens.

Update: merely changing the dialogue text to include the topic text didn't make it show up. I'll try the addtopic approach next, though that has the downside that you can't add it to all people automatically, unless you trigger it via an object in a cell the player is guaranteed to visit (and with mods like chargen-revamped even the census office doesn't guarantee that).

I'll experiment a bit more. May have to settle for a specific NPC starting the quest without the option to get guided there by random characters.

You can find a very good start tutorial for dialogue here: http://mw.modhistory.com/download-90-6072

You can introduce a new topic via Greetings or Latest rumors.

Fix for the missing text fields is in master now. Some testing would be welcome. I am really quite rusty with the code base.

Works for me.
