Unable to 'Spawn'

[akmatov]

I must be doing something completely wrong. All I want to do is spawn some items and then locate them using Feng Shui, but every time I try to spawn something I get a response of "Invalid Inventory Object".

 

Here is what I'm doing:

1. ~ to enter console mode, then left clicking on the item I would like to spawn to get the item code, i.e. a Combat Shotgun comes up as ff001d23.

2. Then enter "player.additem ff001d23 1"

3. Then I get "Invalid Inventory Object"

 

I suspect I'm doing something very basic wrong. Advise appreciated.

 

And just to add to the weirdness, for me, I can spawn ammo OK. The item number for .308 ammo,according to several sources, is 0006b53c. If I drop the leading zeros, and only if I drop them, and use 6b53c I can get ammo. ARrrrrrgh.

Thanks, I think I was trying to spawn using a specific Reference ID rather than a Base Form ID for the type of object.
