IsharaMeradin Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 None that I know of. And if there were, how would you get the materials to make the armor? If you would console in the materials to craft the armor, why not just console in the armor to begin with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorrp10 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Not to mention that when you use the bed to start the game, the mod sets your inventory according to your chosen start. I think the only way to take the stuff you have on you is by choosing 'I want to get out of his cell' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the only way to take the stuff you have on you is by choosing 'I want to get out of his cell'That is not quite true. I have some mods that do add items to the player inventory either on game start or when turned on in an MCM menu. Those items have remained in inventory even after using the bed. I would need to delve into all the mods involved to know for sure what is going on. I know that some of the items are flagged as quest items while others are not. I know that some are scripted to be returned to the player if they get removed (cause I made that particular mod) but am unsure about the others. It is also possible that LAL uses a pre-scribed list of items to remove rather than a straight up RemoveAllItems command. All that said, LAL has a framework for adding additional starts. Thus, for the OP, it may be better to ask for an optional bandit start that equips the desired set of gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorrp10 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Actually, yeah, you are quite right. Alternate start does not remove items from other mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anjenthedog Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 I agree with the main sentiments and reasoning already expressed. My un puquito contribution: I'd just make sure that The mod Add Item Menu is installed Add its spells/etc t to your palette of in-game tools by using console to find it >help additem and scrolll responses to find the package, then use use the console "additem" to get it >player.additem item id 1 then open Add Item Menu via the in-game menus (I always add it both the search and regular version) to my quickmenu, fwiw) and use to equip yourself with whatever you want, be it an iron dagger or The Sword of Andragon.It's your show after all. (seriously) but push come shove, you could spawn a smithing table to do it "legit" and "'murrsive", but you still need materials, as has been said (and spawning a table would be "cHeATiNg!" from the gitgo anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsharaMeradin Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 All objects usable by the game will have a base object with an ID that can be used to spawn in new instances, which will provide a separate reference ID. If you know the name of the item, you can use 'help' in the console to obtain the ID#. You can also load your entire load order in xEdit, locate the Armor record for the desired item(s) and make a note of the ID#(s). The below is from: https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Console#Commands help Returns the IDs of all items, spells, game settings, etc. which have the entered text in their name. This is a useful command to find the item ID of an object, which can then be used with other console commands. E.g., help "Daedric" will list all items, etc. which have "Daedric" in their name. There is no need to put a "0" for the help command. Quotation marks are required for queries of more than one word (e.g., help "ancient nord"). Use page up and page down to scroll through the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anjenthedog Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 I believe The Manipulator offers an in-MCM smithing function, fwiw. Not sure if Nexus hosts it or LL. (or whether it runs under AE or not, but I'll guess it does) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
