Can I get some scripting help?

[Ringmonkey84]

I am semi-competent with modding and the toolset, but scripting is not my thing, can any of the scripters help me make a script for spells to just not someone in the air, I have some knockback effects, but I want the spell to sent them straight up, not backwards. Any help would be appreciated.

Where X is some positive number.

Thank you very much

This, I do not recognize as a standard-synthax. May I assume it to be... OBSE?

 

As for vanilla, you would just use;

scn FlyUpwardScript

ref Self

begin OnScriptEffectStart
set Self to GetSelf
Self.pushactoraway Self 100
end

 

The number '100' could be anything, as long as it is a positive number. Negative effect will drive him in the ground.

 

100 Might be a bit high. Unless you were aiming for that.

Ok, I will try the first one with OBSE when I get home, and return to standard syntax if that doesn't work.

I need some help, I am trying to add the spell via console, but I am always getting errors; I created the script perfectly and I don't know what I am doing wrong.

 

Scn VerticalAdventure

ref self

begin scripteffectstart
set Self to GetSelf
    	     Self.pushactoraway Self 100
end

 

I create the spell without complications as well, but whenever type in player.addspell 01000EDB It gives me errors

What is the error? And is "01" your mods position in your load order or just what the CS told you?

[Ringmonkey84]

The FormID is what CS told me, and the error is

 Script 'SysWindowCompileAndRun', Line 1:
Invalid spellitem '01000EDB' for parameter Spell Item.
Compiled script not saved!

The first two digits represent the load order of your mod. The CS told you it was "01" because in the CS, you only had Oblivion.esm (00) and your mod (01) loaded at the time.

 

If you use OBMM, you can just mouseover your mod on the list and it'll tell you. If you use Wrye Bash, right-click on an empty spot and select "List mods".
