problem with your script vagrent. i tried it out, but it wouldnt let me save it. it said:

 

Script 'anvil' line 11

Nested begin/end blocks are not allowed

 

then it says the error to keep playing or not.

i know you said it probably wouldnt work, but i tried it out anyway :)

scn anvil script

 

ref hammer

short use

 

begin onactivate

set hammer to player.additem <ID of repair hammer> 1

player.activate hammer

set use to 1

end

 

Begin gamemode

if use == 1

if menumode 1035 != 1

hammer.removeme

set use to 0

elseif menumode 1035 == 0

return

endif

elseif use != 1

return

end

Sorry to keep goin on about this.. but there is another error.

 

When i try to save the script it says:

Mismatched if/else/endif block starting on line 20'

 

Wow im sure your getting frustrated with this...

[Abramul]

Missed that.

Begin gamemode

if use == 1

if menumode 1035 != 1

hammer.removeme

set use to 0

elseif menumode 1035 == 0

return

endif

elseif use != 1

return

endif

end

Should work, unless I missed something else. I prefer to build a script from the ground up, saving it frequently to make sure my script compiles.

Now it lets me save it, but when i try it out in the game all it does is add a repair hammer... :(

Not only is there no script for the repair hammer, but it appears to be built into the game itself: RepairHammer is one of the items that show up before you load Oblivion.esm.

 

However, you might try this script on your replacement anvil:

scn AnvilRepairScript

begin OnActivate
player.AddItem RepairHammer
player.EquipItem RepairHammer
player.removeitem RepairHammer
;above line should work, but may cause problems.  If it fails in-game, comment it out.
end

 

It should be possible to use Search & Replace (under Edit) to replace all existing anvils with your activator.

You'll also have to add a '1' after the AddItem RepairHammer and RemoveItem Repairhammer I think.

So: player.AddItem RepairHammer 1

 

Or does adding no number simply add one hammer?

Eh, you're right. My mistake.

thanks you guys are great. my comp is in the shop, but it should be back today, and i will try out that script (should of thought of that way before i even started this thread). I think i see a problem though. If you add 1 repair hammer, use it in the repairing, then take it away and theres nothing there, what will happen? will it cause the game to crash? or is it fine like it is?
