Hi Nexus

 

I'm still relatively new to modding, and do not understand the nature of some "script effect" archetypes in the Creation Kit.

 

For example; the Imperial Luck ability (chance to find extra gold).

 

I can see the RaceImperial ability, which is inherent to imperials, and applies the RaceImperialLuckEffect (so far, so good)

But in the effect, I don't see how it works. I see no perks to apply, no papyrus scripts, no magnitudes or anything. The only things to identify it is "Constant Effect - Self - and Effect Archetype: Script"

 

 

 Cut.JPG   150.57KB   0 downloads

 

So how does it work exactly? What's the script it activates, and how can I see it/Imitate it?
(The end product here is I want to create a similar effect where Bosmer have a chance to harvest extra pelts from animals)

 

 

 

P.s. The Dragonborn priest masks have a similar way of adding their Fire/Shock/Frost damage bonuses, where I can only see an empty, no-magtiude "script archetype" effect.

 

 

Any help much appreciated, thank you.

You have Leveled Item "LootImperialLuck"

In this Leveled Item you have few golds that have 0% chance to show in inventory

 

but % is based on GlobalVariable which can be change by anything

- Script

- Spell

- Perk

 

just anything

 

"LootImperialLuck" is item used by 125 objects in Vanilla Game

objects like, chests, dead bodies etc.

 

GlobalVariable: -> ImperialLuck

LeveledItem: -> LootImperialLuck

 

//Edit:

If You open this Global Variable in Your CK You may saw that value is 100

does that mean that You have 100% chance for loot ?...

 

No... its chance to NOT have loot...

 

100% = Not to have

0% = to have

 

set value to 70 to have

 

70% = Not to have extra loot

30% = to have extra loot

 

etc.

As Tobi written to you:

TESVEdit loaded with
  Skyrim.esm
  Update.esm

 + Spell  (Ability, 0.0, Constant Effect)
    RaceImperial ""Imperial Luck"" [SPEL:000EB7EB]
    Description    "Anywhere gold coins might be found, Imperials always seem to find a few more."

 + MagicEffect
    RaceImperialLuckEffect ""Imperial Luck"" [MGEF:0010EAD0]

inside the papyrus source folder

Skyrim   \ Data \ Scripts \ Source
SkyrimSE \ Data \ Source \ Scripts

you will find some scripts that use the GlobalVariable

So if I wanted to make a script so that Bosmer had, say, a 50% chance to gain 1 extra hide from looted animals...

I would have to create a new leveled list for every animal, apply that to their loot table.
And then make a script which checks for GlobalBosmer"Luck" or whatever, and...

 

Well this is a bit over my head, I'm afraid - really a "noob" when it comes to Skyrim modding.

yep ... the luck effect is really just a global that the scripts for "find gold" use.

If you have it then it uses a different table for if there is gold and the amount.

 

However you could put together a script for if opened a chest add some gold.
