Any chance you could point me in a direction to figuring out how to translate the info into excel? I'm very interested in being able to easily edit quests as well as the other info files.

Did you see the spreadsheets I uploaded previously for monsters and objects?

I guess if you really want to take a look at what I was doing, then sharing the spreadsheet is easy enough:

If you can configure Excel security to enable macros (at your own risk) and if you can work out how I was using it....
Well, then it will certainly help, if you are going to make quests for Tomenet.

I would like to, but currently waiting for any "tools" which could help to create quests :cry: Not sure if anyone works on such tools

I belive it's good to start with a simple newbie-friendly educational quests; for example, quest which would give new player lantern as a reward. Actually even not lantern itself, but would give 100% personal sale for lanterin in #1 shop (so new player would learn how/where to buy it).

Such quest could be given by Town Elder (already there).. Something like this - he ask you to go to Training Tower from which came a lot of pests who invade Bree... So after you get to Tower lvl 2 and come back - he would give you a lantern (or possibility to buy it at 100% sale in #1).

Just another example of open-source ( https://github.com/georgefrick/mafia ) tool - editor of zones for MUDs. How it works:

We need something like this for quests.

p.s.
Another instrument which I've already mentioned before in this topic (just to do not forget): http://textadventures.co.uk/quest
Its web-based program which create text-based games. Explanation how it works:
