Adding a script to Magic Effect via Craetion Kit


Oh shit WTF

Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm trying to add a script to Magic Effect for my custom race but I can't add a script to it  for some reason. What I did was this: Create an unique magic effect>open it>click "add" on Papyrus Script>create a new script>name it>make sure its extends is "activemagiceffect">click "OK". but it doesn't do anything. Am I supposed to add something in Documentation String?

CK is wacky about scripts.  Sometimes you have to close all dialogue boxes before it will let you add one.  I find it easier sometimes to copy a Magic Effect that already has a script attached and work from there.

I've restarted and tried it several times now but it never worked.

Okay, define this.

 

The magic effect doesn't work?  You're not sure if the script worked?  It doesn't attach to the magic effect?

 

If you aren't sure if it worked, add some debugs to print to console to verify it is functioning.

Did you set properties on the script?

Like it doesn't appear in Papyrus scripts blank where you're supposed to see the names of added scripts.

What mod manager are you using?

Have you ever been able to add scripts, or is this new?

Do you have the flag file?

When you opened the CK, did it complain about not finding scripts?

I open it via MO2. I just tried opening it directly from Skyrim folder, but the result was the same. I've done it before and it worked as far as I remember. It was like a few months ago though.

Are you able to open scripts from the script manager?  (NOT through the magic effect interface)

What does that even mean?

 

What other applications?

It doesn't open within CK. like I open the script manager and click on a script but it doesn't open but instead asks me to open it with third application.

Hey, I fixed it. It was the "script.rar" in the Skyrim data folder I needed to extract. It's all good now. I'm really thankful to you for taking your time to help me. I appreciate it!
