Fusiontron Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I am trying to move an object from an exterior into an interior cell. I have tried to do a cut + paste but it results in the object having a new RefID. How can I move the object into a different cell without this issue?

QQuix Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 You can't, as far as I know. What I did when I had this situation was: cut+paste >> rename the original EditorID to something else >> name the new reference EditorID >> delete the old reference >> recompile all scripts. If the original reference is used in parent-child relations or AI packages or grid connections, you have to redo them manually, I am afraid.

wizardmirth Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Cut out the Ref ID text and save it as the same ref. Then cut out the object itself and paste it into the new cell. Open the ref and paste in the same name you first cut out and save as the same ref. You might possibly have to re-save scripts that use this ref name at the end but I'm not sure. Reverting the ref to unnamed may check it out of certain processes you may have established already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthmoor Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Simpler way: Select the ref you want.ctrl+cGo to the cell you want to move it to.ctrl+shift+mAnswer the warning prompt that comes up.Reposition the ref appropriately. This will preserve all links to the ref without requiring arcane rituals to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QQuix Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Good to know . . . but it is not working for me. Ctrl-Shift-m just toggles the markers, ignoring the Ctrl-Shift keys.Tried Ctrl-Shift-v also. It works like Ctrl-v and just paste a new reference. Just noticed that all of us failed to mention which game we are talking about. :tongue: I just assumed it was Oblivion.

Arthmoor Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Oh, sorry. The thing I listed only works in the Skyrim CK. Oblivion has no such convenient shortcut. You'd have to do it in TES4Edit instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusiontron Posted July 15, 2015 Author Share Posted July 15, 2015 Yeah my bad I meant for Skyrim. Thanks for the advice Arthmoor, it worked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
