How do I associate a book with a quest? I cannot get the text replacement to show - the book is blank apart from the first few words before the text replacement. I created a quest alias (as a reference alias) for the book - ticked the 'uses stored text' (the page states 'displays text' but I think this might be an error as the only options are 'stores text' or 'uses stored text') tried to use <Alias=Player> and it will not show. I make sure the quest has started before reading the book.

Name replaced with Message

In the article it says "You can use a Message to replace the display name of anything in a quest's alias". Does this mean that it would be possible to change the name of a cell? (Or even make it appear that you have? Even if you haven't).
If so, how would I achieve this? It would make for an excellent touch in a mod that I am currently working on. Antares (talk) 12:46, 21 July 2012 (EDT)

I don't think so, since you can't make an Alias of a cell, only of a Location. --HawkFest (talk) 2013-02-24T11:32:56 (EST)
