identify the (xx) load order number for baseIds

[Good0Provider]

Wondering if there is a clean solution for finding the baseids for xx in base id or should I just brute force it with 02,03,04?

Not sure I understand the question.  Do you mean this?

Math.LogicalAnd( Math.RightShift( x.getFormId(), 24), 255)

"XX" or "XXXXX" in regards to console commands denotes that the object is from an official plugin (also known as DLC). Usually found in the BaseID or RefID of items or characters, these first two numbers change depending on the order of installation or the order the of ESP files in the data files section of the game launcher.

So the baseID for the https://elderscrolls.fandom.com/wiki/Ash_Hopper_(Dragonborn) is represente as "xx01b657" because the first two to hex will be 02, 03, or 04 depending on if Dragonborn is 02,03,or 04 in the load order. Is there a way to find the load order for Dragonborn or should I search 0201b657, 0301b657, and 0401b657 until I find the Ash Hopper?

Game.getModByName.

Or, use Game.getLightModByName if it's an esl.

You may also be interested in Game.getFormFromFile.

Would matter if was a 'hard save = written to hard' or a 'soft save = only in memory' ?  If I am mistaken, ignore me. happy hunting.

ps typing susk using xbox pad.

Good luck.

In a script - as per above post.   Otherwise, just look it up in your mod manager.

Is this a console thingy? Yeah I clicked the link, are you using mfg console?

• https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/44596

Try using that to get the base ID or another equivalent type mod that does the same thing to enhance the console

the base XX ID value is ofc dependant of item clicked, but in the console it will display as a hex number, there is no need to do any thing else.. you mis-understood the gist of the post you linked.

see the images from that mod above to see how the base ID displays in the console

The missing part here is OP explaining what they are trying to do, and what do they want with an Ash Hopper.   

Outside of the game, one  just needs to take a look at their plugin mod indices in their mod organizer.   As seen here in my Vortex Plugins tab, dragonborn.esm has index 04 in my setup.

Inside of game, you can just open console and type:    help "ash hopper"

As you can see, there are actually 4 flavors of Ash Hopper NPCs.

The solution I was looking for was to strip the first two "load order" bits and use the getFormFromFile.

game.GetFormFromFile(0x01B657,"Dragonborn.esm")

Is there a way to go from "ash hopper" to ids using papyrus?
