SSE Please Help

[fattyliver]

So I would like to start giving some creatures strengths and weaknesses based on common lore in our world. Firstly, I would like to massively increase the health regeneration of Trolls, and have that regeneration only stoppable by using fire against them.

 

I would also like werewolves and vampires to have increased regeneration, and also be immune to mundane weapon damage, and have their regeneration only stoppable by silver weapons.

 

I have no idea how to make that happen, so any help would be awesome.

First look at Animal Tweaks by CrushBoss for the Troll changes.

Then look at the same info for how the troll is vulnerable to fire and see if you can apply that to vampires/werewolves changing it to silver weapons.

Use SSEedit to look at the file - the Trolls themselves will show an ability, then CTRL-Left Click on it and it will take you to that record which should have the regen numbers.

Search the CK wiki too.

Werewolves I think already receive extra damage from silver. That may be from the weapon itself though. Unofficial SSE Patch includes edits to that if I'm remembering right.

thank you for your response. and i did download that mod and now i have an idea and a dilema. as far as the trolls go, they have spells as constant effects that give them the weakness to fire and other such bonuses and weakness, but they all involve spells. i mean i only barely googled it, but apparently there is no system ingame that adjusts weapon damages based on material or class of weapon. so my first thought is that if i want werewolves to be weak to silver, i would have to create a silver spell. then i can enchant silver weapons with it and give the weakness to that spell. but i dont mod well, so far all i do is adjust leveled lists, but im working on it.

Silver weapons, when wielded, give the user a Silver Perk. That perk monitors if the weapon has the Keyword WeapMaterialSilver, and if the targets are werewolf, werebear, undead (includes vampires) or a ghost - if those conditions are right it adds to the damage of the silver weapon.

 

Yes the Trolls have the constant spell effect attached to their Race record. That gives them the weakness to fire, and resistance to other forms of damage. The Vampires and Werewolves don't have a weakness to silver but Silver does more damage to them.

 

So, it's all there - I think what you want to do is adjust some numbers to get the immunity to weapons other than silver. Might have to add the resistance to non-silver to their races like the trolls have.

 

It's sort of confusing even to me - but it's a matter of looking through the different ways of doing things, finding where to add your changes.
