Scripting issue

[konnierizzle1]

I'm trying to make a book activate and apply Sanguinare Vampiris

I keep getting the error type mismatch on parameter 1 (did you forget a cast?)

Scriptname SanguinareVampirisBook extends ObjectReference

{Book Script}

Event OnActivate(ObjectReference akActionRef)

Game.GetPlayer().AddSpell(04032039)

Debug.MessageBox("You Receive Augustine's Gift of Immortal Life")

endEvent

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Papyrus doesn't use formIDs directly like that (Which is why you get the error ;) ). There's a few ways you can get a form into a script the easiest probably using a property, so add this just under your ScriptName and Description lines:

Spell Property SanguinareVampiris Auto

and replace:

    Game.GetPlayer().AddSpell(04032039)

with

    Game.GetPlayer().AddSpell(SanguinareVampiris)

Compile it and then right click the script and head into Edit Properties and and 'fill' the property with the spell you want. (If your property name Matches a Form that is a Spell you can also just click auto fill and it will do it for you.)

The script compiled! You are my hero!

But the disease isn't applying itself on my character, I had set up a custom effect for this, can I do it with the regular spell instead? Probably worth a shot.

 

Here's what it looks like now, I assume I'd need to replace AugustinesGift with DiseaseSanguinareVampiris.

Spell Property AugustinesGift Auto

Event OnActivate(ObjectReference akActionRef)

Game.GetPlayer().AddSpell(AugustinesGift)

EndEvent

 

It's done, I had to add the PlayerVampireQuestScript to the book as well, didn't think about it until now, thank you for the help with this, I was bangning my head against my keyboard for 6 hours today at least!

Once again, you are my absolute hero right now.
