How do I prevent dragon random spawning?

Post » Thu Nov 15, 2012 8:42 pm

I stopped playing Skyrim some months ago, because I was ganked by dragons at every step. I couldn't go to any place without one or more dragons spawning! I then found a mod on TES Nexus, I can't remember its name, that prevented dragon random spawns, and resumed playing. When Dawnguard came out the game started crashing to desktop, and dragon started spawning again. What I'm asking here is not a specific mod to stop dragon spawns (if there's one, that works with the latest game build, I'd be happy to see it), but a way to mod the game myself to prevent dragon spawns. Can anybody tell me where should I look in the Creation Kit to manipulate the dragon spawn rate?

I don't mean at all to hijack your thread or anything, but I have an incredibly related quick question: Will dragons spawn only in the Tamriel worldspace? I.e. if I have my own unattached worldspace will they spawn there too? I need them not too, am I set? Thanks.

Don't meant to hijack. :P

Random dragon spawns are part of the random wilderness spawn system. If you have any of those set up in your world space, you'll probably end up with dragons.

I have a dragon spawn rate reducer... but it seems I can't turn it up on SkyNex. :(

Awesome, I'll keep that in mind when/if I set those spawners up. Thanks!

There's a mod to reduce them, but it doesn't totally eliminate them..

Well if you're really desperate, make a new game and never visit the Jarl of Whiterun and go kill that dragon. I installed Arthmoor's Live another life mod, and I've never seen a single dragon. They were fun the first time around, but now they're just annoying.
