Essential NPC?

[Kusta]

I have bit of problems with this.

I'm using Adrenaline Oblivion mod, and currently I'm at battle for Bruma.

So i was wondering can i set Martin, Baurus and others as essentials since there is HUGE number of mobs spawning outside of gates?

SetEssential Martin 1

SetEssential Baurus 1

 

You might have to get into the CS to learn the form IDs of soldiers you want to make essential.

Thanks for help :)

 

EDIT:

It looks like this or don't work or I'm missing something.

When i try that command i get error like this:

Script 'SysWindowComplieAndRun', line 1:

Item 'Baurus' not found for parameter Actor Base.

Compiled script not saved.

 

What am I doing wrong?

When you open the console click on the person you want to be essential so their name shows at the top of the screen. Then type in the console code and press enter. Do the same again for other NPC's.

 

That should fix the error.

Still doesn't work.

I typed all possible combination and nothing seams to work.

He was selected but nothing seams to work.

I try even just to type code and essential command and still nothing.

Always error.

If you use OBSE, then there is a mod that will add a spell that does what you want.

 

As far as I know you can only use the setEssential command with a hex form ID.

If you want to write that down the setEssential xxxxxxx 1 will set the NPC who corresponds

to xxxxxxx to essential, 0 sets it non-essential. If you want to do that, then look up the formID

in the CS (which confuses me a little) or here: Link

 

This mod makes an in-game scripted spell that toggles it: Link

Thanks for the mod link, I am using OBSE.

And thanks for info about hex.

Now i understand why nothing else didn't work.
