Noob Questions

[JimAndConrad]

I've searched and can't find the answers, I apologise if these questions are tedious repetitions.

- How do I open the .bsa archive so I can access the .nif files when making a new container?
example: I want to make a standard chest with different attributes. I go to containers, hit 'new' and enter the values I want. When it says 'add art file' I go into the 'o' subfolder where the chest art files are and can't see anything. I'm guessing I have to unpack the .bsa file but have no idea how to go about it.

- How can I transfer ownership of the objects that have the "Trebonius" ownership to the player when they reach Archmage rank in The Mage's Guild.
(If this involves a lot of scripting just say that and I'll abandon the idea as I'm a scripting newbie)

- Is it possible to have a door relock itself after you've gone through it?
I want the player to have to carry a specific key

- What is the cleanest and most efficient way of cleaning a mod .esp in 2023?
Over the years many different programs for this have come and gone, I was wondering what the gold standard is now.

Thanks for any help.

nothing about ownership in the MW scripting for dummies

 

 

- Is it possible to have a door relock itself after you've gone through it?

I want the player to have to carry a specific key

at least 2 options

My_Door_ID->Lock, 50

or use a script that requires to have a key in the inventory, the door doesn't actually have a lock level, you just can't pass through without key

Thank you for the quick answers!

Morrowind enchanted editor is another very good mod cleaner IMO.

This is an easy one. Just change the ownership of all items owned by Trebonius to Faction Owned with Archmage rank.
