[LE] Invisible Actor

How to make an actor to be invisible always, like during conversations, etc?

If I remember correctly, there's a vanilla script named something like SetAlphaOnLoad that one can attach to an actor or actorbase. Try to look into how the ghost actors are made - either they or the ghost abilities they have should use the script I mentioned. When you find the script, just use it and set the alpha setting property to 0.0.

 

If you just want something invisible to talk to, the better choice is probably Talking Activators though. Again, see how the game itself uses those - or google and see if someone has written a tutorial :)

Well actually it should look like invisible spell effect, so not completely invisible. I have managed to make my actor to be invisible by applying invisibility spell as ability, but it stops soon as he enters into conversation with player. So i want to avoid this.

 

Thanks :smile:

Allright, but again, the ghost abilities or a slightly adjusted version of one of those should do the trick, so try and look how they've done it in the base game. Or you can make an almost-invisible effect like what I suggested above, just with the alpha setting property on the script set to any number between 0.0 and 1.0.

I have managed to make my actor always invisible using invisibility effect and Vampiric mist form. Looks cool :smile: The trick was in creating new ability and magic effect.

 

Now i need to make actor run to place where i can't see him and disappear.
