topeira Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 hi guys. i want to spawn specific enemies to test stuff around.how can i tell what ID codes spawn what enemies in the console? for example; i want to spawn a bandit highwayman with a sword and shield? how do i know what code he's using? should i encounter such an NPC and type something in the console to reveal his ID code? will appreciate any help.thanks
kuro1n Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 I think you can get it by marking a enemy while you have the console open otherwise you can most likely find it in the UESP Skyrim wiki: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:SkyrimBest of luck. : )
firstprice Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 Type 'help highwayman 0' in console and it will search for highwayman and probably find the code you're looking for.
Cipscis Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 Note that, when using the "help" console command, you need to enclose the name string in quotes. For example:help "highwayman" 0Cipscis
topeira Posted November 24, 2011 Author Posted November 24, 2011 Type 'help highwayman 0' in console and it will search for highwayman and probably find the code you're looking for. when i do what u suggested i get a few lines that say "bandit highwayman" with IDs and when i type "player.placeatme ff00167b" (for example) i get difference NPCs every time. sometimes not only they are not bandit highwayman, they are not even bandits. sometimes they are hunters. sometimes they are bears! also i figured that if i press ~ in the middle of combat and then click with the cursor on an NPC than i get it's ID, but i am not sure what is this number im getting. using the number i get by clicking on objects when the game is console-paused inside "player.placeatme" gives me nothing. im not sure what to do :\ any farther advice?
