Changing Game Settings from within a script.

[Circuitous]

Been hunting around and can't find an answer.

 

I'm trying to bring my old Level Workaround from Fallout 3 to NV. Unfortunately, when I hit level 31, I don't get a perk, which means I'll never get another perk. Bummer.

 

I figured I could script around this little difficulty.

 

The relevant part:

 

;add the ability to keep gaining perks, either every level or every other level
;gain perks every level
;SetGS iLevelsPerPerk == 1

;gain perks every other level with hacky scripting!
;if clwDidntGetAPerk = 1
;	set clwDidntGetAPerk to 0
;	setGS iLevelsPerPerk to 1
;else
;	set clwDidntGetAPerk to 1
;	set iLevelsPerPerk to 2
;end if

 

clwDidntGetAPerk is a global I set up for tracking. iLevelsPerPerk is exactly what it sounds like. I've tried Set, SetGS, to, =, ==, and it refuses to compile every time. What do I need to do to change this, if it's even possible?

That's because there's no script extender for the game yet. You needed FOSE to use that function previously.

So what you're saying is it's impossible with the standard GECK? That's a bummer.

 

Alright, well, thank you.

That's strange, because I don't use FOSE, but I do use his mod for FO3, and it works just fine.

can we do this without a nvse??

cause SetGS is a console command right??

Please note the date of the previous post, and see the Nexus "Terms of Service" about not resurrecting old threads.

"SetGS" is a console only command. As noted on that page of the GECKWiki: "To use it in a script, you'd have to use con_SetGameSetting instead."

If you have NVSE you can do it with SetNumericGameSetting
