(HELP) Enchantment to Arrows...

[reptoon]

I'm using FOMM +TES

 

I got a new .esp file open

 

Layout shows:

 

arrows.esp

--TES4

+ GRUP (WEAP)

-- WEAP (EnchOrcBattleAxefire02)

+ GRUP (Ench)

-- ENCH (EnchWeaponFireDamage02)

+ GRUP (AMMO)

-- AMMO (IronArrowFire)

 

If I change AMMO to WEAP the Record shows:

 

[Record]
Type: WEAP
FormID: 00882222

[Formatted information]

EITM (Enchantment Record)
Form ID: 00045C2A: ENCH (EnchWeaponFireDamage02)

EAMT (Enchantment Charge Amount)
Amount: 1000

 

But if I keep it AMMO the records show:

 

[Record]

OBND (OBND Data)

If I keep it as WEAP... When I'm in game and equip it, its wielded to main hand as a melee weapon.

I I keep it as AMMO... I can wield it as an ammo slot but no enchantment :(

 

Anybody that can help ?

First page :P

 

Anybody with input ?

 

Let me know if you need clarification on anything.

Might be because there's no code in skyrim that specifies the use of enchantments via arrows. Simply put, if they're treated as 'ammo' then the game ignores any form of enchantment simply because there's no code to handle it.

 

If you were a crazy hacker you'd recode bows to use weapons as ammo and change stacks of arrows to weapons, then enable stacks of arrows to be enchanted as if they were a single weapon on the table but disable enchanting stacks of other weapons. Then have the bow shoot weapons instead of ammo that preserved the bow's enchantment and added it to its own. Then have a script that prevented equipping the hax fakearrows.

 

But we don't know any of THOSE people.

 

As a side effect you could have bows that shoot chairs.

Enchanted chairs.

That you could wield and swing around like a club.

That launch cabbages.

Fair enough. I spent a few hours for nothing. But learned some other vital stuff I could use elsewhere. Thanks.

I'll also note, nice ending to that post. Who wouldn't want to launch cabbages.

 

This will most likely be possible with the CK eh ?

I don't know that there's no code for sure, was just a guess.

But yeah, like the rock-it-launcher.
