Interaction glitch?

[Zeharena]

Hello people. This is my first post on this site, and I just have to say I've been downloading from this site for quite some time and never thought to make a post. Now I must because I have an issue that is quite game breaking for me.

 

I have been able to activate objects from quite afar, maybe around 5 - 15 meters, give or take. And if I'm using a bow and arrow, I can even pick-pocket bandits or anything as long as I'm aiming at them. This for me... Is insane.

 

I'm wondering, is there any sort of file, I can access and alter in order for me to fix this issue?

 

Please & Thank you so much, in advance

There's probably a specific mod causing the issue. Most people would advise you to post your mod load order so they can check it out.

 

Now, if you want you can make a new mod, and force it to load last. You'll have to download the Construction =Set of course, and you should learn it a bit just for fun haha. :)

 

Here's a step by step of what to do:

 

1) Select Open and put a check next to Oblivion.esm (and Shivering Isles if you have it), then hit ok

2) Wait for it to load, even on my beastly machine it takes a good thirty seconds.

3) Once it's loaded look at the top bar (alongside where it says "File, Edit etc")

4) Click on Gameplay, the select Edit Scripts from the drop down menu.

5) In the Script screen that appeared select Script from the top menu bar, then New

6) Paste the following code into the white area:

scn ActivationRangeFixScript

float fQuestDelayTime
Short DoOnce

Begin GameMode

If (DoOnce == 0)
    Set fQuestdelayTime to .01
    Set IActivatePickLength to 150
    Set DoOnce to 1
    StopQuest ActivationRangeFix
EndIf

End

7) In the drop down menu near the top of the script window (labelled Script Type) select Quest

8) Save that script, then close the script window.

9) Click on Character, then select Quests in the drop down menu.

10) On the left side of the menu that pops up you'll see a large list of stuff. The first eight or so will say arena...

11) Right click on any of those and select New

12) Type ActivationRangeFix in the pop up menu then press ok (It has to be named this and spelled correctly to interact with the script we just made)

13) Now, check the box in the middle of the menu that says "Start Game Enable" if it isn't already checked.

14) Change the priority to 20

15) Directly to the right of the priority setting is a drop down box labelled "Script:" press the arrow to open the drop down box then find and select "ActivationRangeFixScript"

16) Hit ok in the bottom right of the quest window.

17) Hit save in the main window. It will ask you what to name your new save, it can be named whatever you like but something that makes sense is a good idea i.e. "ActivationRangeFix"

18) Next time you launch oblivion make sure your new mod is checked, and the last item in the list to load

 

And that should work. :)

[Zeharena]

Hey man. Thanks a heap for the reply. It looks like it makes sense so far. I've encountered one issue though... I get a pop up when attempting to save the script;

 

Script 'ActivationRangeScriptFix', line 10

unknown varible 'IActivatePickLength'.

 

Continue playing?

Yes to all will disable all Warnings this session

 

(Yes, no, yes to all)

 

I went ahead and said yes and it didn't let me choose the script on step 15.

 

Thanks again in advance.

[paladicprince]

Ok. I typed that from my understanding of scripting but I hadn't used that variable directly. I'll go mess with it and let you know what I did wrong.

[Zeharena]

If anyone needs to quickly contact me about this issue leave me an email or msn me at;

 

[email protected]

 

Thanks for your hard work Paladicprice. ^^

[paladicprince]

LOL!

 

Ok so I knew that existed but had never messed with it... As I originally typed it I took a very long way to di it >.>

 

So, starting over.

 

1) Open the Construction set, then Open Oblivion.esp (and shivering isles if you have it)

2) Go to Gameplay then Settings

3) Scroll through the list that appears until you find iActivatePickLength

4) Select it, then change the value in the box that appears to the right

5) Hit ok, then save your mod and name it whatever you like

6) Repeat 2 and 3

7) Select iActivatePickLength again and set it to 150

8) Save again, then load the game with your mod last

 

 

The games default for that variable is 150 so the first time you open it in my instructions it should already say 150. The reason you change>save>changeagain>save is so that it actually gets saved to your mod.

 

At any rate that should work a whole lot better and easier than I originally posted. :)

[Zeharena]

My friend, you are a f*cking genius. Thank you so much. ^_^

 

You just saved me about 12 hours worth of headache, and about 24 hours worth of reinstalling.

 

Ooooh words cannot express how happy I am this worked.

 

Thank you, again.

[paladicprince]

Lol. Yeah in some cases like this one the quick fix is the better choice. If you ever have any other problems I'm sure everyone on here will be pretty helpful.
