How do you edit an item property using TESsnip?

[Oomo]

I bought Skyrim but ain't playing it until my mod needs are met, but I am looking at the info in an item file. What does it mean and how do I edit it? For example, let's take a lockpick

 

Based on the lockpick data below from the skyrim.esm does anybody know what I edit here to:

 

1) Change its selling price

2) Change how much you pay to buy it from a merchant

3) What do I edit so that you can't loot it in containers or corpses, or would you have to find loot drop lists to do that?

 

I'm a complete noob and want to make a tough economy mod. Any help appreciated.

DATA is the weight and value

Use the float/int (forget which one it takes) in the bottom left hand corner once you double click DATA.

Thanks. That's a good start :)

Hello Oomo,

 

I have tried the same thing like you did. I wanted to change the price of cooked food. I was succesfull so far, but...

TESsnip did not decrypt the name of the item correctly. Cooked salmon ist now called öl0ß, for example.

 

I do not know if there is a walkaround for this problem.

(I use the german version)

 

 

Greetings, Christian

@ Christian: Change the wordings in FULL to any word you want or in your case, type in "cooked salmon"~ hope this helps!

@New man

 

Your solution to my problem sounded much to easy to work, but I did try it...

 

It worked perfectly :thumbsup: , now I can increase the prices of food in the german version, so hunting makes sense.

 

BIG THX!!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

on my side i had this exact problem, but with ingredients. however, editing that field still gives me some corrupted characters mixed with the name i typed :(

Any chance anyone could tell me if you can use any of those fields to change an item from light armor tag to heavy armor, so you can use for example glass armor in game with heavy armor perks?
