Desperately Want To Learn


Recommended Posts

Posted

I would absolutely love to learn how to Mod, but I'm an idiot when it comes to understanding Computers, I'm an old duck O.o ...I have so many Mod ideas though that I would love to create, but I have no idea where to start in trying to get some sort of education on how. Would anyone have any suggestions please? Very easy to follow YouTube Tutorials, etc...?

I can really recommend these tutorials for ck and scripting, they helped me understand everything i needed: 

VIDEOS:

1. https://www.youtube.com/c/Darkfox127/playlists

2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDKivlGmia4&list=PLL9MQHsCibbY1veZLmPEKxyUfeSUEw3EG&index=2

2. Has some more videos than the few that are in the playlist, just look them up.

 

SITES:

Official CK Wiki (you will most likely find everything you need in here):

https://www.creationkit.com/index.php?title=Category:Tutorials

for MCM menus:

https://github.com/schlangster/skyui/wiki/MCM-Quickstart

 

Other helpful stuff:

understanding some papyrus log:

undoing accidental CK changes:

https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/1313053-undoing-a-creation-kit-change/

Understanding the different Types (very useful for scripting):

https://github.com/xanderdunn/skaar/wiki/Understanding-Forms%2C-Object-References%2C-Reference-Aliases%2C-and-Persistence

Papyrus Util (some extra functions for scripting) :

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/58705

 

All of these basically helped me out to start modding. But just like @flutie already said you have to read a lot and invest some time to get everything going and to develop your own workflow, etc.

I just looked around and found the multiquote icon, wasn't aware it was there, sorry

 

And thank you :) ...I will look them up when I attempt to Script, as for your offer, thank you so much, if you'd been kind enough to maybe look over my attempt when I try it then please? I am still just reading up on it at this point, to be honest I don't know how I will go with it as I made a concerted effort once before about 5-6 years ago and failed miserably :( ...I know there is some kind of trigger in learning, where suddenly it would all make sense and I would wonder why I ever found it so difficult to get my head around, but I haven't found that trigger point as yet :( ...I would like to give it my absolute best shot first (not be lazy), before I would ask another to Mod or Script something for me (aside from the odd little LE to SE conversions I have asked people for), but anything bigger than that, I need to try the best I can to learn first. I deeply appreciate your generosity and offers to help, thank you so much :) ...If it's okay with you if I keep you updated on how I'm faring?
