Help with Spider Control Rod

Post » Tue Jun 19, 2012 12:02 pm

Hey there!

I have a question for anyone who may know. I'm making a dungeon and would like to use the spider control rod and the special Dwarven Spider that is controlled it. My problem starts here as the rod is not usable outside of Calcelmo's Laboratory. When you use it anywhere else you receive a message saying it can only be used in the lab. The spider then shoots you in the face with a lightning bolt which is...not what im looking for XD.

I was just curious if anyone had found a way around this either through scripting or other means.

I have tried re-writing the script I thought dealt with this behavior (dunMarkarthWizardSpiderStaffEffect.psc). I found this script at the following location - C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\skyrim\Data\Scripts\Source but I am by no means a programmer or script writer so my attempt may have just been silly.

I made a copy of the room that the spider can function in(markarthwizardsquarters02) and deleted everything in there. I made a little test room and added the spider and staff. I no longer get the "you cant use that here" error but the spider does not move. There is navmesh in the room so he should be able to walk around.

Any help would be appreciated :D
