Vampires and feeding upon corpses

[Haecceity]

I've been puttering around with the CK, trying to get this worked out. Sadly, I'm having little luck. I was advise to 'edit the criteria for vampire feed target in the vampire feed form' but I'm having trouble even finding it! Yes, I am a newbie at this.

 

Could someone please give me a hand or some pointers?

I haven't actually tried that yet since it's not something I'm going to do with my vampire overhaul... but enabling feeding is handled via Perks. Look for VampireFeed. There's a single PerkEntry for Activate. Open it, and you'll on the Target tab there are some specific conditions to use it. That's where I'd start. Not sure if you can simply do an "Or IsDead check. If it WORKS, be prepared to be asked if you're going to feed on every corpse you activate, which won't be fun. You might want to make an additional requirement suck as IsSneaking if that's the case because I don't think you'll get an option to FEED and LOOT your corpse, otherwise.

 

Edit: I was reading on another forum someone posted a similar question....that got me thinking

 

This is the current set of conditions on that perk:

 

IsChild == 0 AND
HasBeenEaten == 0 AND
HasKeyword == ActorTypeNPC AND
GetSleeping == 3 AND

 

What I would recommend is adding an addtional Activate check that has the EXACT same entry point as this one but use the following conditions

 

IsChild == 0 AND
HasBeenEaten == 0 AND
HasKeyword == ActorTypeNPC AND
IsDead == 1

 

Either that or figure out if you can add an IsDead == 1 w/OR clause to the original one but I don't know if you need to repat the IsChild, HasBeenEaten and HasKeyword after it.

 

For my mod, I just took out the IsChild check.

 

Good luck!
