Help with GECK scripting

[Sh0uter]

Hey, so Iâm trying to write a script where when you have 10 strength your body transforms into a more muscular form. I tried following the script from the Ghoulification mod by Highsight but the script wonât save. Any help is appreciated.

 

The script btw:

Scn HerculeanScript

 

Begin GameMode

 

If Player.GetPermanentActorValue Strength == 10

Player.matchrace HerculesRef

 

Endif

End

1. Look in \Fallout New Vegas\EditorWarnings.log for the script errors.

 

OR, much better,

 

2. Install the Geck Extender (if you haven't already), and change file \Fallout New Vegas\Data\nvse\Plugins\geckextender.ini and change this:

[Script]
.....
bScriptCompileWarningPopup=1
....

For starters tho, I would think you would only want to do that MatchRace command once, not every time the GameMode block runs.

Wouldn't

Endif

End

Stop it from running every time GameMode runs? Feel like it worked that way for Oblivion.

No.

Begin GameMode
//(anything here runs every time)
 
If Player.GetPermanentActorValue Strength == 10
//(if the player's strength is 10 anything here also runs every time, if the player's strength is not 10 this is skipped)
endif
 
//(anything here runs every time)
end

Oblivion worked the same way.

 

If you want it to dynamically update, you can do something like this:

Scn MuscularScript
 
int ThisCheck
int LastCheck
Begin GameMode
 
Set ThisCheck to Player.GetPermanentActorValue Strength
 
If ThisCheck!=LastCheck
 
If ThisCheck == 10
Player.matchrace MuscularRaceGuyRef
Else
Player.matchrace WimpyRaceGuyRef
Endif
 
Endif   ; end ThisCheck != LastCheck
 
Set LastCheck to ThisCheck
End
