.esp dissappeared : V

» Tue Jun 19, 2012 7:04 pm

ok so i made a base layout using the dwemer kit. i made the rooms and all and saved it but when i closed the program outand reopened it like 30min later it wasnt showing up in the cell list.

i did mark it as active but it still didnt show up. i sent it to a friend and he didnt see it in his cell list either.

Any ideas why it suddenly disappeared?

When you reopened the CK, did you load your mod as a data file?

Open CK
Click File > Data
Check your mod (esp) and click Make Active
Check the Skyrim.esm file

yeah i did that and it still didnt appear. Also tried it as not active...same result.

Did you make sure that your mod was the active file when you saved your cell the first time?

Are you certain you made a new cell, and not edited one of the vanilla cells?

Other than that, not seen this reported by anyone else ...

i copied another cell but removed everything that was in the cell. And yes when i opened it the second time i made it the active data.

Have you gone back to look at the cell you originally copied (the vanilla cell), what state is that in?

yea its still the same as when i copied it originally. cuz i copied aaaMarkers. and that is still fine but my .esp is seen by CK and the game but not in the cell window.

Close CK
Open CK
File > Data
Click once on your ESP
Click "Details"
Click the Type Column Heading (twice) to sort all of the objects in your ESP into alpha order

Is you cell in the list?

what are you looking for exactly? cuz it says CELL aaaMarkers and CELL unowned

i checked both of them and my original stuff isnt there.

If you do as I said in my last post it will give you a list of every single "object" saved in your ESP file.

Cells are objects, so if you can remember what ID/Name you gave to your cell, you should see it in the list.

If you don't see it in the list, then that cell is not in your mod. I don't know why that would be and I haven't seen anyone else on here reporting this as a problem.

yeah i didnt see it in the list even though it was in the details. i may just delete it and start over from scratch. Unless someone says otherwise.

i could send the file to someone if need be to see whats going on. i sent it to a friend and he saw the samething.

You see it in the "Details" Form, and it has a TYPE of "Cell", but you do not see it in the cell list?

You are selecting INTERIORS from the Cell View "Worldspaces" drop down box, yes?

yup. its not there.

I'm sorry, mate - I have no more ideas ... I have not seen anyone else report an issue with this
