TUTORIAL: REMOVING UNWANTED MAGIC EFFECTS FROM THE PLAYER

[daleowen5666]

I am having a similar problem, but I couldn't find the particle effect in this thread.

Here are several screenshots of my effect, is really hard to see....I'd say its glowing ash, dripping from my character:

Its similar to the effect dragons have when they die and their skin burns off.

Can somebody help me identify the effect?

Hi,

 

I have one of those visual bugs, but it is no listed in this topic, and nothing shows in my spell -buff list.

It is identical to the effect on a burnt Spriggan (the burning ashes falling).

I don't know how to use the TES Creation Kit to find out.

After a little bit or research, I found out that it is not a spell per se. It is an visual effect that is triggered via a script(on the enemies. I have no idea how this effect got stuck on my character).

This however does not get me any nearer to an solution for this.

Solved it!

I don't know if this is overkill, but it worked for me:

 

- Start Creationkit and open Dragonborn.esm

- Go to Gameplay -> Papyrus Script Manager. Search for "dlc2burtspigganfcscript (the spelling mistakes are intentional)

- Open the script. If it can't be found on your pc, Search it in Skyrim/data/scripts. It has to be somewhere there. When you find it, copy it to Skyrim/data/scripts/source

- At the bottom of the file, you see the function:

Event onDying(actor myKiller)
DLC2BurntSprigganParticlesE.stop(self)
goToState("dead")
EndEvent

 

- Add the line "DLC2BurntSprigganParticlesE.stop(myKiller)

 

-It should look like this:

Event onDying(actor myKiller)

DLC2BurntSprigganParticlesE.stop(myKiller)
DLC2BurntSprigganParticlesE.stop(self)
goToState("dead")
EndEvent

 

-Save the script.

-Go to Gameplay -> Compile papyrus scripts

-Select the script and click "Compile"

 

-Start Skyrim and search for a burnt spriggan. As soon as you kill it, the effect should be gone.

-Be sure that you take the killing blow.

 

It took me several hours to figure this out. I think you can create a new script as well ,insert the command and trigger it however you like.

I don't know why that link keeps breaking. The proper links are at the bottom of the post, they both work.

Good work. I'll zip up and upload the fixed script later for everyone's convenience. Cheers.

To remove "Dragonnbsp;PriestEffect" (Purple smoke and glow eyes on feet)

1. Download my edited script.

http://www63.zippyshare.com/v/442173/file.htm

2. Put "DragonPriestActorScript.pex" into "/Skyrim/Data/Scripts" overwrite the file if you need

3. Launch Skyrim and load your save file.

4. Press "`" Key to open the console.

5. Type "player.addspell 9BCCA" and press the enter / return key.

6. Press "`" key to close the console and press again to open it up.

7. Type "player.removespell 9BCCA" and press the enter / return key.

8. Close the console

9. Done!

About the script, I just add some lines which remove effects when the script end. so It will notaffectto the game. But If you want keep the script as clean, backup the original and revert it again.

-- Scripts what I add --

;DragonPriestActorScript

;enpinion edit

EVENT OnEffectFinish(Actor Target, Actor Caster)

selfRef.unequipitem(DragonPriestArmor01)

DragonPriestEyeGlowFX.Stop(selfRef)

DragonPriestParticlesFX.Stop(selfRef)

ENDEVENT

edit : Images.

 

Thank you so much for this post, it's been a very long time since I last tried removing the effect, mine had the Glowing Eyes on the Feet. Your script worked!

 

This was my old post at page 3 regarding the effect.

This is post for the quoted fix above at page 13.

 

I'll report back here it it reappears.

 

Again, a million thanks to you enpinion :biggrin:

And also, thanks again to steve40 for this thread.

;D ;D ;D

Yeah that fix is already listed on the first page (post #9). Good to know it worked!

It's still a mystery why/how the visual effects of an NPC are getting unintentionally cast onto the player, though!
