Combining two mods

[SleepyBoi77]

Hi, this is my first time visiting this forum and my first post.

I just downloaded and set up the construction set last night. I got it working with OBSE.

I have something I'd like to do but my ambition exceeds my current ability
I have downloaded two mods

https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/16744

https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/47741

The first, the Claire mod, is a vampire companion mod with scripting that makes the companion a vampire who needs to feed or will go insane and start attacking people if she hasn't fed recently

The second, the Ddeath mod, is a companion mod I've been using and enjoying for a while

My goal is to take Ddeath and turn him into a vampire companion with the feeding mechanics of the Claire mod, but who does not take sunlight damage

 

In my limited understanding of what to do: I think I need to isolate the parts of Claire mod that I want and graft them into the Ddeath mod

I am very much a beginner and I've been getting overwhelmed looking at Claire's scripts

Looking at others script might have that effect for sure. What we need to do with the CS is to take it slowly. Even if I am a very experienced scripter, I cannot read others minds and there are usually more than one way to do stuff. The one I have most problem to follow is Maskar's scripts, that are extremely optimized as one example. We need to go slow, read each line when or if we find the right script, try to set us in to that specific script.

 

Mostly we do not need to know exact what a script really does really. If you like that script, then use it as it is and fill in somewhere what it is missing, most likely in the beginning of the script, so your part runs at all, which you can check with some debug info, like writing stuff to the console or messages or both.

Your code
Your block

Message "This part runs"
PrintToConsole "This part was excecuted perfect"

end you block
end your code

See more at the CS Wiki, all functions to learn what a function is doing but often it is not clear, so then we sort it out here for sure
