What does this mean and how can I change it

[DrBathroom]

So I'm trying to make a book that adds map markers when read, however the script that can do this is not in the script directory when searched via the add function and it will not allow me to add more than markers to the list.

I'm a little confused. Hopefully what I have to say will be helpful.

 

If you have not done so, extract the scripts.rar / scripts.zip file found in the Data folder. Extract it in location as it contains the necessary sub-folders. This is a necessary step for the Creation Kit. The CK uses the source files (PSC) while the game uses the compiled version (PEX). Furthermore, the CK can only use one directory for source scripts.

Default directories:

Skyrim LE - Data\Scripts\Source

Skyrim SE - Data\Source\Scripts

 

The base game script files will be the above listed directory for your game while DLC script files will be in sub-folders. You may have to move any DLC script files you wish to work with before the CK can work with them.

 

Once the script files are in place, you can use the following stock script defaultAddMapMarkerOnCloseBookNotAlias to add up to 5 markers to the map. But you may want to write your own variation of the script depending upon your needs.

 

If none of that helps, share a screenshot or short video showing the problem.
