Also does anyone know how to create a continual health damage effect? I want to bring back the Oblivion sun damage effect.

Thanks for the replies, I figured out a bunch already like I said. I just edited one of the vampire scripts but it seems to only effect vanilla vampires. I would have to find a way to tweak dawnguard vampire lord vampires in order to have the full effect but there dont seem to be any scripts for the dlc. Ive looked into writing extended scripts but Im kind of lost and not really sure if it would even work. So if anyone knows anything about Dawnguard scripts let me know.

One thing I learned thats been useful is that all the scripts contained in the Archive are in psc format (which is original source) and so you can easily edit and customize these using something like notepad++ which can also be setup to compile your new edited script as a pex file which the game engine reads before a psc file. so you can then include the edited script in your mod and it will overwrite the original script. Also, even if you have no experience with scripts, don't be afraid to take a look at them as you'll find that a lot of it makes sense in a 'common sense' type way. I don't know much papyrus scripting myself but I was able to modify Immersive Amazing Follower Tweaks to create a vampire without the grey head bug and more like how Better Vampires does it with just an eye texture change and anding the needed keywords to be seen as a vamp and have their abilities. I didn't add any new script, I just used copy and paste to change things round in the scripts. If I can do it, anyone can lol. Good luck with your modding.
