jamesgtaiv Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Hey guys I want to attach objects to each other in the CK but can't figure out how to do it. Is it possible to attach an object to another object or npc? Thanks
CampanaAliquanta Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Someone might be able to help if you gave a little more info. Are you trying to attach e.g. a saddle to a dragon? Make an NPC carry something? Place an apple on top of a table? Put an apple in a container? Add something to an actor's inventory? Or are you trying to reference a particular item in a quest script?
jamesgtaiv Posted February 13, 2012 Author Posted February 13, 2012 This is gonna seem pretty ghetto but I wanted to attach a boat to a horse. Like make it seem like I'm driving a boat when really, it's a horse swimming. It would be nice if the boat would remain solid.

You could always replace the horse mesh with the boat mesh, disable the script that makes it follow you and teleport to you when you fast travel, no?
jamesgtaiv Posted February 13, 2012 Author Posted February 13, 2012 I appreciate the quick reply but I wouldnt even know where to begin with that. Also, wouldnt that replace all of the horses in the game?
kingtitan Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Unfortunately, I don't think your request is possible. The rigging for each model would not allow for such an action (static vs. creature model).
kingtitan Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 I appreciate the quick reply but I wouldnt even know where to begin with that. Also, wouldnt that replace all of the horses in the game? Sorry for posting in succession, but not necessarily. All you would have to do is to open up the entry for the horse, change the ID to make it unique and change the world model to a boat instead of the default horse model. Again though, I don't think what you are wanting to do will turn out very pretty.
jamesgtaiv Posted February 13, 2012 Author Posted February 13, 2012 Thanks Yeah, I dont think I'm going to bother with it then. I'll just wait until someone releases a simple boat mod. I can't believe its not possible to just attach an object to another object or npc though. I can think of a million other games where it is possible and simple.
jamesgtaiv Posted February 13, 2012 Author Posted February 13, 2012 Sorry for double posting myself but can anyone think of a way to make a boat simply sailable?
GomuGomu64 Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 "Sailable" as in, you activate->Loadscreen->New area, or sailable as in moving about the landscape in real time? The former is very easy to do, whereas the latter will take some heavy scrounging and very "hacky" techniques (As in, bunch of low-level, may-sometimes-not-always-kinda-maybe work techniques)
