Stupid summoned Skeletons don't use orcish shield! Why not?

[christianerding]

Hello to all modders out there!

 

 

I made a simple summon spell to summon a skeleton.

 

The equipment is a steel sword and a orcish shield.

 

The skeltons never equip this shield in combat, only iron shields are equiped when in inventory!!

 

Does anyone know why?

 

There must be list somewere with the allowed equipment for skeletons.

 

Can anyone give advice, please?

That's because the SkeletonRace is not selected in the ArmorAddon form of the orcish shield.

 

When you open the form of the shield, there is a listbox called "Models", doubleclick the first entry.

This will open the ArmorAddon of that shield. There you have to select the "SkeletonRace" in "Additional Races".

Hello Outlandstalker,

 

THANK YOU VERY MUCH! :-)

 

Your advice was just great! It might not be a big thing for you, but it was for me!

 

Believe it or not, I am working on quite a big mod for skyrim and I am already at 85%.

 

But it is a german mod.

 

This thing was important for me because it covers the aspects of my summon section.

 

I can now create skeletons with equipment that scales acording to level!!

 

 

Where did you get all that knowledge?

 

 

Big thanks to you again.

I'm working also on a mod and had the same problem with the necro skeletons not wearing other shields. > http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/imageshare/image.php?id=67864

So i checked the model list of the shields and i saw that the skeletons were not selected.
