Script Help - Skill Book to increase skills to 100

Heya!

 

Tried to search for this on the web and Nexus Forums but didn't find what I was seeking, so I made a new thread about it. I hope this isn't covered someplace and I missed it.

 

I like to do some quality of life modding for my own use (custom enchant armor to skip the tedious crafting skill leveling on new characters and so forth), but I really have no idea on how to make scripts. I used a script made for me once, but it's been a year since I implemented it in the Creation Kit and it was tied to a spell instead of a book. I do understand code in some level (University Student for Information Processing, course in C completed), but anyways. Here goes:

 

I'd need a script tied to a unique book that when opened, would open a menu asking if I want to use it or not.

If player chooses "Yes", then the script would increase the player characters Smithing, Alchemy and Enchanting to 100 (85 or 100x IncPCs console command?).

Choosing "No". Would naturally close the menu without doing anything else. Choosing "Yes" would also change a boolean variable (CustomCraftingSkillBookRead=True or something) so that the player can't use the same book twice on the same character.

 

Pseudo-code:

bool ccsBookRead = false
int playerChoise;
 
OnEvent WhenBookIsOpened{
print "Would you like to use this book?"
(no idea how GUI menus are made)
if (playerChoise = 1){
increaseCraftingSkillsBy100
ccsBookRead = true
}
else if (playerChoise = 0){
exitMenu
}
else{
exitMenu
}
}
 

I hope I stated my case understandably. If not, please do ask for more info :smile:

No need for a mod or a script.

 

Put this in a text file called IMAGREATBIGCHEAT.txt,

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

 

save the txt file in ....\Steam\SteamApps

 

then in the console type

 

bat IMAGREATBIGCHEAT

 

 

 

Job done. :mad:

I do know how to use bat files. I just do not wish to spend hours leveling up crafting professions for the Nth time. I've done it in a legit way enough times and doing it through the console breaks immersion. I just wish to incorporate the skipping process in the game via a mod to make it lore friendly - in a way - and learn a new thing about Skyrim modding in the process.

 

I'd rather make that book / tome into a quest reward or an secret to be found in a future quest mod or something for those who wish to skip the tedious process of leveling up their crafting professions in order to make their characters viable in the higher difficulty settings.

 

Thanks though.

Ah! That's essentially what I tried to find. The rest of the syntax I can find through guides. Thanks!

 

 

You should look at the scripts for the Vanilla books that raise skill.
