Skyrim console questions

Post » Tue Jun 05, 2012 3:58 pm

Hi.

I am using Creation Kit, and I sometimes need to modify my character to test out my mod easily; so I have a few questions about the Skyrim console.

1. Is there a way to paste text from the clipboard into the console? (ctrl+v doesn't work.)

2. Is it possible to add perk points with a console command? (Points that the player may use to learn new perks. Adding the perk itself with the console command is too much of a hassle.)

Thanks.

What you need is probably a batch file. You can create a text file with a command per line like a macro, name it, and put it in your installation directory. When you open the console the command is bat and Enter will run it.
With perk points, the ones you have unspent in your Skills menu are directly tied to your levels, so only forcing an adventuring level will give you 1 free point. To mess with them in console, you will probably need to add and remove them individually by name, but if it's a hassle you can make batch files to run multiple commands as well.

player.addperk [perkID]
player.removeperk [perkID]

For the perks. Perk IDs are on the relevant skill page on UESP. Batch files like Abrinth said for the copy-paste issue.

Pretty sure you can't add perk POINTS, just perks. The Dragon Souls to Perks modder mentioned that he couldn't figure out a way to do so.
