Can't loot Custom Creature

Hey guys I've put a custom creature in the game and everything works fine... except after it dies I cannot loot the corpse, even though it has things in its inventory.

 

The model has havok data but no ragdoll data yet (I'm working on it). Does that have anything to do with it at all?

 

Any pointers?

Did you add a script on it? If so, in an OnActivate block, be sure to add Activate.

What I sometimes experience is the door/container/talk icon only appearing on a specific spot, a specific distance. One step forward and it ruins it, so standing in front of a door doesn't yield the icon.

Never found out how to fix that.

Does the icon actually appear or not?

The icon never actually appears. There's no scripts running on it.

 

What I did was to copy the Xivilai settings in TESCS then replace the skeleton/mesh/animations with the custom creature.

 

Doesn't matter where the creature dies or what part of the mesh I hover over with the cursor the loot icon never shows.

Actually what worked was giving the creature skeleton havok data, not just the havok bounds but the entire boxed-out ragdoll data for the entire skeleton. For some reason Oblivion won't let you loot creatures that don't have the havok ragdoll physics.

 

Pain in the butt but it worked :P
