Does any one with CK knowledge even look at this thread?

It's because it's only possible to assign one enchantment per item, although you could assign more than one effect per enchantment.. If you don't even know that, then that means you made no effort to do it yourself.

For a toggled power when you equip the enchanted item, you would need to have a scripted magic effect that adds and removes a lesser power when the effect starts and the effect ends.

Yeah I've already figured that much out. I just need a script to add and remove a power upon equip and un equip.

Has a TesFiles been released for Skyrim?

Scriptname SomeEnchMagicEffectScript extends ActiveMagicEffectSpell property CoolPower autoEvent OnEffectStart(Actor akTarget, Actor akCaster)	akTarget.AddSpell(CoolPower)EndEventEvent OnEffectFinish(Actor akTarget, Actor akCaster)	akTarget.RemoveSpell(CoolPower)EndEvent

EDIT:

Has anyone been able to get the return value from RemoveSpell? I couldn't get this to work:

Function ToggleSpell(Spell MySpell, Actor MyActor)    if !(MyActor.RemoveSpell(MySpell))        MyActor.AddSpell(MySpell)    endifEndFunction

I don't know about the exclamation mark.
Wouldn't you do either:

if myactor.removespell(myspell) != true

or

if myactor.removespell(myspell)

Exclamation mark in front represents NOT, its valid syntax for Papyrus.

Ok so I'm guessing (kinda new at this), that anywhere it says "CoolPower" in that code is where i need to place the name of the power that will add the spell?

[Laura]

Yes, but you don't have to. The name of the property itself doesn't matter at all. You set the value to the property outside of the script by right-clicking it and selecting properties. http://www.creationkit.com/Bethesda_Tutorial_Papyrus_Introduction_to_Properties#Hooking_up_the_message_boxes_to_the_properties_in_the_script

Is there a way to level up an actor via Script?

[CHANONE]

I need an ear. No really, I do.

I want to extract the dark elf ears so that I can edit them, but they don't seem to actually be attached to the head. Been having some trouble figuring out just which file it is they're in. I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be linked to a HDPT file, like the other body parts, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Would by chance anyone know? >.>

EDIT: Nevermind, figured it out. The ears were attached to the face gen, but given names like 00013349. Which is... going to be interesting trying to edit.

Ok i cant figure out which night eye is the right one. i tried night eye and night eye effect but neither seemed to give me the spell.

[DAVId Bryant]

Try PowerKhajiitNightEye.

[James Smart]

I didnt see it. the only power effect that would show up is something for the dark elves.

Otherwise, no.

If you find a way to do it without changing skills though, tell me.

[Shelby Huffman]

is there a way to delete a script? I made one that seems to keep me from compiling a new one.

[Krystina Proietti]

You can search your scripts folder and then delete them. Remember there is a psc (source) file and a pex (compiled) file.

Does anyone know how the spline translate functions work? I've been experimenting and I'm not sure I understand. This is what I think it does:

1. The preferred path that the object uses to travel to it's target is elliptical.

• If the object is facing away from it's target, the path would be over half the ellipse, otherwise it's less than half.
  
• The total distance covered by the path is the spline magnitude.
  
• If the spline magnitude is too high, then the object will actually curve behind the target (eg instead of object starting at 1 o'clock and target is 5 o'clock, object starts at 1 o'clock and target is 4 o'clock).

2. If the spline magnitude is too low for the path to be elliptical, then the path is triangular.

• The object will travel in the direction it was facing at the start until they manage to turn towards the target.
  
• Then the object will travel straight towards the target.

3. Spline/ellipse is only on the XY plane.


EDIT: Well, I still don't know how the functions actually work, but I'm pretty satisfied with the curve I get when I use this:

Scriptname fg109TestMEScript extends ActiveMagicEffect  Float Property Speed = 100.0 AutoEvent OnEffectStart(Actor akTarget, Actor akCaster)    SmoothCurve(akTarget, akCaster)EndEventFunction SmoothCurve(ObjectReference A, ObjectReference B)    Float AngleZ = A.GetHeadingAngle(B)    if (AngleZ < -45)        Float OffsetAngle = -45.0 - AngleZ        AngleZ = -45.0        A.SetAngle(0, 0, A.GetAngleZ() + OffsetAngle)    elseif (AngleZ > 45)        Float OffsetAngle = 45.0 - AngleZ        AngleZ = 45.0        A.SetAngle(0, 0, A.GetAngleZ() + OffsetAngle)    endif    Float DistanceXY = Math.sqrt((B.X - A.X) * (B.X - A.X) + (B.Y - A.Y) * (B.Y - A.Y))    Float SplineMagnitude = DistanceXY / Math.Cos(AngleZ)    Float AngleZEnd = A.GetAngleZ() + (A.GetHeadingAngle(B) * 2)    A.SplineTranslateTo(B.X, B.Y, B.Z, 0, 0, AngleZEnd, Math.Abs(SplineMagnitude) * 0.75, Speed)EndFunction

It's a magic effect because I was testing the function out using NPCs.

I just deleted the .esp and i am going to start from scratch.

[Marnesia Steele]

How would I go about making a spell effect that stacks with itself on the player?
Using the same MGEF would, if I am not mistaken, only reset the duration if it is reapplied.
However, I am thinking of a spell that will not have a cooldown, but instead apply a small debuff everytime it is used. For balance, this debuff should stack.

I can think of a way to script this with a global, but I try to avoid those when possible. Any ideas?

[Kate Norris]

Where are all the crops? I look in flora, which has all the mushrooms and those sorts of things, as well as other not-technically-flora things that you can harvest like flora, but I don't see any crops there. What is the directory to find things like wheat, cabbages etc. EDIT: Found it in trees. You'd think all the harvestable items would go under one category, rather than just some of them and having the rest in a section that also includes non-harvestable objects.

Does anyone know how to use the story manager to detect when the player sells something? I checked the CK wiki, and none of the types for Player Remove Item events seem to refer to item sales.

Just finished making the test quest. After getting the sword from enemy, I should give this sword to my NPC. And the dialogue doesnt start, nothing opening.
Where the problem can be?

[..xX Vin Xx..]

• I can think of a way to script this with a global, but I try to avoid those when possible. Any ideas?
  If a global will work, why not use one? There's nothing wrong with globals...
• Where are all the crops?
  World Objects > Trees > TreeFlora*
• Does anyone know how to use the story manager to detect when the player sells something? I checked the CK wiki, and none of the types for Player Remove Item events seem to refer to item sales.
  An http://www.creationkit.com/OnSell_-_ObjectReference event for the item would do it. Not sure about covering that with the SM, however...

  Is the quest running? Are the INFOs' conditions all met?

[Pat RiMsey]

hi all! i'm making a mod that add new npcs to the game and i wanted to know how to make a npc go clear a dungeons and loot corpses.
i used the DefaultSandboxMultiLocation, set the npc travel to the boss in the dungeon, set 180 seconds to wait in the dungeon.

Then i use the console to teleport to the npc i created and then i see him start his attack against the boss.
Well i would like to create a package that make the npc enter the dungeon, attack the enemies just like the player, and not to teleport him directly to the boss making all the npcs nearby to attack him all at the same time.

then, is there a way to create a package to enable npcs to loot corpes?
thank you.

[Spencey!]

Is the quest running? Are the INFOs' conditions all met?

Yeah, it's running, I have sword and I need to give it to NPC (I have marker to my npc).
Just checked the conditions, id and quest stage are set, they are current (stage 20 is completed, now is stage 30, id belong to npc).
