DominusSicarum Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Greetings. I've run into a problem while screwing around in fo4edit. I need to make Magic Effect applied by Jet ingestible permanent (00248900 SlowTimeJet), but can't figure out how. Setting it's casting type to constant and\or flags to no duration didn't seem to help. Is this possible at all? Another question I have concerns conditions on spells, ingestibles and magic effects themselves. Lets say I make a condition that checks if specific actor value is greater than 0. If that AV hits 0, will it terminate the effect for good, or just suppress it temporarily? Is there a difference between puting a condition on magic effect itself or on it's application in a spell or ingestible (beyond condition in magic effect affecting all it's instances and not just one spell). It might be a dumb set of questions, but every bit of information I've found was extremely vague. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted2948850User Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Shouldn't the casting flag be set to constantself? Anyway, if you can't keep it as a constant effect as a spell,you might be able to change it to an enchant and sticking it on a piece of equipment. Worked in previous games.

DominusSicarum Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) Shouldn't the casting flag be set to constantself?Yeah, it's Constant Effect with Self delivery (that's what FO4Edit says).you might be able to change it to an enchant and sticking it on a piece of equipment.Alas, I need it as an ingestible.

Deleted2948850User Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Maybe there's still a variable you're overlooking? You could try cross-referencing it with existing perks/enchants/effects or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DominusSicarum Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 No luck. I guess I'll have to wait for GECK and script that stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinraStrife Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 No luck. I guess I'll have to wait for GECK and script that stuff. In Jet's item record there is a duration value, have you tried setting it to a huge number or 0 or -1? If that doesn't work you could always make a script in Skyrim's CK and upgrade the compiled script to FO4 with the PexUpgrader tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that doesn't work you could always make a script in Skyrim's CK and upgrade the compiled script to FO4 with the PexUpgrader tool. Yeah, I can set it to a huge number. Equal to about 4 thousand ingame years. Zero doesn't work at all. Another problem - jet effect has 2 scrips attached. I know that one of them checks if player actually consumed Jet item, fires sound fx, does the slowdown (- i don't even know how), AND does something to GUI, so jet effect gets displayed. And forbids to use another jet item while effect is running. If spell condition actually removed magic effect from character once condition isn't true, that would be wonderful! But it doesn't. It just supresses it temporarily. On the other hand magic effect condition deletes it, but checks only once. Wonder if it will prevent script from firing too. Gotta check. Anyone knows what Parameter #3 in condition does? I swear I've seen it set to -1 on some occasions. I'll just wait for proper script disassembler (so I can read dem sweet-sweet pex files) and\or GECK. I could always write my own script with jet and hookers, but I'm not really feeling like it. Yet. Once I find an easy way to attach scripts (hex and hex editing in particular make my head hurt) I'll be desperate enough to create my own script anyway. Other chems will need their scripts too, lol. Update: humongous value does nothing! Just like these googles! Edited November 28, 2015 by DominusSicarum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinraStrife Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 I could always write my own script with jet and hookers, I'm gonna write my own script, with blackjack, and hookers! Futurama :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DominusSicarum Posted November 30, 2015 Author Share Posted November 30, 2015 After some further testing - I can't put permanent effects on ingestibles (and this makes me sad). The exactly same magic effect on spell of ability type is permanent, however.But, if I add an ability, I don't get the status effect. So, I can add the ability using a script. But can I use a script to add a displayed status effect as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
