jimmygitto Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I have seen a lot of posts and videos about how you have to use a quest to spawn a legendary item, but I just tested a weapon I have put together in the creation kit with some specified mod attachments AND a legendary effect attachment and placed it in the world, and it worked fine. My only issue is that I wanted to rename the weapon, which I did on the weapon item in the "Name" box, but it didn't stick. In the game it is just called "instigating calibrated etc etc." So I'm bummed, I thought I was all set with my customized legendary without a quest, but I can't figure out how to get my custom name to apply. When I do it with the quest, with the "Name Override" box, the name works. But it would be a lot better to be able to add named, custom-modded weapons without all this quest business. Any ideas?

HeyYou Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Vanilla game seems to manage it. There are legendarys for sale at various vendors. Maybe look at one of those weapons, and see if you aren't missing a trick somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKKmods Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Look at the AspirationalItems quest and AspirationalAddItemScript script. The unique name is set on a Level List containing the base Weapon, look at Aspiration_Weapon_BunkerHill_10mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmygitto Posted September 5, 2018 Author Share Posted September 5, 2018 Thats great, thanks to both of you for the replies. So my hope is that I can avoid using the level list, quest and script. I found that those are not necessary for the legendary effect, which can just be added directly to the object mod list on the weapon item. But then the name gets edited by the mods, amended.Maybe I should take the angle of trying to figure out how to disable the name-amendment function of the weapon mods?I will check the ones with vendors and see if they are done with quests, too. Thats a good idea. I suspect they are, but maybe I will get lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
