Salvostramus Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I've seen mods like Midas Magic and Apocolypse spell package, but I wanted to add my own flavor of magic to Skyrim, hopefully in a way that fits very well along with vanilla spells. This is my first foray into Skyrim modding, so I am going to be asking for a lot of help on these forums. Done some lurking here and you all seem like a pretty helpful bunch. ;) This mod will be developed to be used alongside Balanced Magic Planned spells: (Subject to change at anytime) Malak's Curse - Deals fire damage over 15s. If the target dies while it is active, it seeks a new target. (Destruction)Gravity Well - Creates a singularity that pulls enemies towards it before imploding.

(Conjuration) So far I have Arcane Exchange working the way I want and can easily make Furious Exchange, but I am hitting a snag on my Earth Rune. Earth Rune works beautifully as advertised, with one hiccup. For some reason it is dealing a large amount of damage wherever I try to plant the rune, even on invalid objects such as NPCs, while vanilla runes do no damage until triggered as expected. This especially confuses me since I made it by copying and then modifying components of a vanilla frost rune. I am also confused as to how Runes calculate their damage area, as all damage effects for vanilla runes seem to have 0 area in CK. I know about glitch in CK, and I don't think this is what is happening. Anyone have experience with modding runes that can help me out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvostramus Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 Anyone? I am so confused as to why this is happening. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnaiSiaion Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Your impactdataset has nothing in it for actor collisions, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvostramus Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 It is using the same impactdataset as a vanilla frost rune. (MAGRuneFrostImpactSet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvostramus Posted January 20, 2014 Author Share Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) Finished the decal work for Earth Rune. I will be updating frost, fire, and shock runes to match this style. Image 1Image 2 I also solved my double damage problem. Evidently for lobber projectile types the damage radius is set in the explosion, not in the magic effect. :ermm: Edited January 20, 2014 by Salvostramus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
