Can't Seem To SelectManipulate Foliage Objects In Render

Post » Mon Jun 18, 2012 10:09 pm

I am either missing something or there is a bug in the CK that I've not read about yet. The issue I am having is that when I place foliage I cannot select it (so that it shows that colorful 1 pixel border) and subsequently change it's position. Last week, when I was working on a house and trying to spruce up the exterior, I ran into the same thing. Now I am working on an interior cell for a different mod and I'd like to place some ferns. I can put them into the render window just fine, but then I cannot select them in order to move and rotate them. Every time I click on the ferns the object behind is selected instead.

Has anyone else encountered this issue? Is there a way to fix it? I am hoping it's something simple that I might have unknowingly toggled.

Thanks for the reply Top killa. I am willing to try that. But maybe a bit more detail will clear up what is happening, because it sounds like the cache verification may be necessary for different issues.

I can place foliage into a cell, and I can see it just fine. But clicking on it does not select the foliage. After making my first post, I was thinking back and I seem to recall being able to delete a couple bushes when I was working on my house mod to fix up the exterior. But ever since then I haven't been able to click on or manipulate foliage and trees.

No luck with the verification. I ran it on both the CK and Skyrim and everything verified successfully.

I spoke too soon. I assumed that since the verification hadn't found any problems, that the issue would still be present. However, after firing up the CK again and placing a test fern, I am now able to select and move it.

Thanks for the tip Top killa. :thumbsup:
