Oh shit WTF Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 I wanted to add my custom race to wild animals faction but it seems like I can't do it by races. I wanna make it like animals are allies only when I choose to be this race. Is there any way to do that?

You'll need to either create a racial ability for them, or you can add on to one you already have. Then, you'll need to add this script to a magic effect your racial ability is using (which should be an effect added by your mod, don't edit a vanilla Skyrim effect to add this): Scriptname AddMeToFaction extends activemagiceffect event OnEffectStart(Actor akTarget, Actor akCaster) akTarget.AddToFaction(AddFaction) endEvent event OnEffectFinish(Actor akTarget, Actor akCaster) akTarget.RemoveFromFaction(AddFaction) endEvent Faction Property AddFaction Auto You can name the new script whatever you like, but the name you use will have to match the name in the script itself (which I have as AddMeToFaction). Once you have the script added, you'll want to set the AddFaction property to whatever faction you want to use.

Once you have the script added, you'll want to set the AddFaction property to whatever faction you want to use. what if I use multiple magic effects in one ability? or if I have multiple racial abilities with multiple magic effects for each? do I have to add the script on all of them? or just one of them?

Just one of your effects need it.

Also can I ask you how you put the space before the akTarget part? I thought it was TAB key but it doesn't do it

You can try Debug.Notification for the message to appear in the top left of the screen, or Debug.MessageBox to get it as a popup. You can always try finding a Spriggan in the wild and seeing what it does. Roadside Ruins just outside Falkreath is a handy location for that.

It still attacks me. and notification doesn't come up although I've changed it to debug.notification what should I do?

Just to back up a step and be sure: The script only runs when the ability is added or removed from the player, you will need to change races to see it. Loading into a save where you were already playing as your custom race won't get your scripted changes.
