kingy9467 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Ok so I am not a complete newbie when it comes to the Creation Kit, I understand the basics and have recently been dabbling with relative success into more advanced things such as navmeshing space and markers for npc's and followers. However , though I've found some advice on how to make a custom player home "Family Friendly" allowing children and spouses to move in... I am stuck, and while I'm happy to tinker and almost sure I could eventually get to figuring it out.... I'm stuck on one of the first steps. It is probably a really simple question... perhaps even a stupid one... but how exactly do you set the keywords for an interior cell? such as the keywords: "LocTypePlayerHouse", "LocTypeDwelling", and "LocTypeHouse" Any help would be appreciated, and if I'm posting this topic in the wrong place, forgive me and please politely redirect me.

acidzebra Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Usually when I don't have a clue I open a similar cell in the creation kit - in this case pick WhiterunBreezehome. Right-click the cell in the cell view window, edit. On the first tab you notice under location it's a "WhiterunBreezehomeLocation" (in these tabs you can also select music to play, the imagespace, lighting, and under "interior data" you will see the zone NoResetZone which exempts your cell from a cell reset (which would empty all containers etc which is bad). But getting back to locations, you now know you will need to make a custom location to your home, or copy an existing one. In the object window, go to WorldData > Location and find your WhiterunBreezehomeLocation. Doubleclick and look - it has the keywords. Okay, so we'll make our own. Close the breezehome window, create a new location. Give it an ID (MyHomeLocation or similar), a name (My pretty home), and right-click in the keyword pane to add your desired keywords. Finally, in the cell view window, right-click your cell > edit (also available under menu world > cells), and set the location for your cell (MyHomeLocation).
