HELP Point Me in the right direction, please

[GowiHasti]

I'm looking to make a mod of some quest items (as well as a few non quest items) that only alters their carry weight and nothing else. It'll be my first mod but can somebody please point me in the direction of how I can make the mod I want, please?

 

--I read quest items display weight but don't actually weigh anything, is that true?

if you want to use the creation kit there's some configuring to do to get it to work if you haven't yet.

i'm not very good with the ck, but from what i remember, open the ck. click file > data and double click the masters you need. find the item in the tree, double click it, change stuff, click ok. then go to file > save.

 

or if you'd rather just use xedit you can just load whatever master plugin you need to find the item and find the formid corresponding to it from the tree on the left and click on it. right-click the name of the plugin in the right pane and "copy as override into" and scroll down to <new file> and tick the box. then name it whatever you want and change the weight under your new plugin in the right pane. when you exit just select the new plugin you made to be saved.
