Rurik36 Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I've been contemplating creating a mod for the past few days, I've got a script which, with some modification, I think should accomplish half my goal. What I want to know though, is if the other half is possible. And that half is, is it possible to create a custom soul gem that functions just like a black soul gem, and if so how? If it's not possible in the vanilla game, would it be possible using OBSE? Please note that I'm not referring to a replacer, I know that could easily be accomplished, I'm looking to create a completely new item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehBuddha Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I guess, you could just assign a different mesh to the balck soul gem, then when it prompts you create a new editor ID...Im not sure though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomlong54210 Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 All you have to do is duplicate the record in the CS. Right-click on the record and choose duplicate. There is no reason to mess with the original record. You can change the editor ID after making the duplicate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehBuddha Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I just let the CS duplicate it for me...Im that lazy :sweat: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomlong54210 Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I just let the CS duplicate it for me...Im that lazy :sweat:That's the best way to do it. If the black soul gem has a script, you will need to duplicate and update the scripts with the new EDID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehBuddha Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I dont think any of the soul gems have scripts :turned: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rurik36 Posted May 13, 2010 Author Share Posted May 13, 2010 Hrm, no, that's not going to work. It'll function as a normal soul gem, but not a black one. And for what I'm trying to accomplish that just won't do. Which means I'll definitely need some kind of script that will allow it to capture humanoid souls.

You will want to duplicate the record, but then you will need to duplicate the scripts necessary to make it capture humanoid souls as well. I posted a way I think might help you do that in the BethSoft thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehBuddha Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 But, there's no script attached to the black soul gems in the CS, or none that are showing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
