[LE] Adding an Item to player inventory Automatically at game start.

[mojobo]

Hi, I need some help adding an item to the players inventory as I have no idea how to make this happen without dialogue.

The effect I am trying to achieve would be similar to Empire Builder or a pose mod where rings are automatically added to the players inventory as soon as they load their game.

I have seen the tutorials describing how to add items through Dialogue but the papyrus does not compile successfully for this method. I am at a loss, and would appreciate any help you can give.

Script free method:

Create a start game enabled quest

Add an alias that points to the player

Add the desired item(s) to the inventory section of the alias

Save and test

 

This method will work every time that the mod is loaded for its first time.

Thanks for the quick reply! I will try that out right away!

It works! Thanks so much!

Do you need to generate an SEQ for the quest to work? I've been having major quest creation issues...

afaik you only need seq files if you have a startgame enabled quest with dialogues or scenes.

This hurts me knowing i went through the trouble of scripting mine to do this...

I found a tutorial online which would do this but it involved scripting and I could never get it to work a second time. this thread has been a god send. thanks for asking the question and thanks for answering it
