Make New Misc Items in GECK...

[ruserious]

Hey all

I want to add some MISC item into my mod for recipes, they are variants of existing items so I was hoping there was a way to copy a MISC item and then edit it to my liking and then add it to a recipe.

 

But if I have to create it from a NEW form and fill it all in that's ok but I cant locate the MODEL and the INVENTORY images for the ITEM. Doing a system search for: Interface\Icons\PipboyImages\Items\ yields nothing. The file item_junk.dds can't be found when I try to put it into the field for the INVNTORY IMAGE...after hitting the EDIT button...

 

 

Same with the MODEL file Clutter\Junk\RobotThing.NIF... Any help would be appreciated...

Whatever original files you are looking for will be in the Fallout - Meshes.bsa. Assuming you don't know how to access a .bsa file, get FOMM for New Vegas since it has a .bsa browser. Use the browser to extract the files you need while trying to maintain their original filepath. That way you can use them however you want in the GECK.

Just edit the Item ID by a letter or two, and click OK. It will come up and ask you if you want to create a new form. Click YES, and it will create a new item identical to the first item only with a new ID.

You could do what Interfer0 said, but that's only for making another miscellaneous item in your case. If you wanted a miscellaneous item to be an activator, container, or what-have-you, then you would need to do what I posted before.
