theuseless Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 (edited) I was wondering if anybody has the ability to make a spell out of SigilLightTowerActive (or another such light beam). I wish to make the beam track a player and damage when hit, like a laser beam. If this is possible, you would make my final quest waaaaaay cooler. I wish to use this in my mod Castle Tharnstein. You can see where the sigil stone will be placed here: http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/images/39393-3-1310721198.jpg The stone will be placed in the center of the white spikey things, in the holder. I wish to make it fire the spell until tethered to a great welkyn stone below it. If such a spell exists, please let me know!!! The fire effect: http://images.wikia.com/elderscrolls/images/8/89/SigilStone.jpg It is the beam which I want to move. I would make it move with scripting if I could do the math, but I'm not smart enough to do that either.

Lanceor Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 The scripting for Gareth's beam spell in Knights of the Nine Revelation uses this exact concept. Feel free to reverse engineer it, or get someone else to. :) Basically here's the rough order of what happens: Gareth casts a dummy spell on himself.The scripted effect makes him hold a particular casting pose.The activator is moved to his position.Any creature that triggers the activator is treated to some nice damage. :) Note also that the activator was modified from the original so that it would look good positioned horizontally (and again, feel free to grab it).

theuseless Posted January 5, 2013 Author Share Posted January 5, 2013 Sah-weet! Thanks so much for allowing me to reverse engineer it. It looks like I am going to have to play more of that mod :teehee: Awesome as that mod is, I just haven't had too much time to play, mod and draw. A million thanks and I wish I could add kudos multiple times!!! I will read your credits and make sure that all authors who contributed to the spell get mention in mine!

Lanceor Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 The beam spell didn't use any external resources, and was coded entirely by me, so that should make it easier. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
