Problems with scripting, following tutorials to the letter but just ge

[WOTmodsproductions]

Ive been trying to get my head around the scripting in this game and have followed a tutorial that says to create this script:

 

ScriptName trighot1(name is only thing i changed) Extends ObjectReference

Actor Property PlayerREF Auto ; Least 'costly' way to refer to the player

Event OnTriggerEnter(ObjectReference akActionRef)
If akActionRef == PlayerREF ; This condition ensures that only the player will trigger this code
Debug.MessageBox("Yippee!")
EndIf
EndEvent

 

When I press save I get this:

 

 

 

Starting 1 compile threads for 1 files...

Compiling "trighot1"...

c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\Data\Scripts\Source\ObjectReference.psc(38,7): cannot name a variable or property the same as a known type or script

c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\Data\Scripts\Source\ObjectReference.psc(40,26): cannot call the member function GetParentCell alone or on a type, must call it on a variable

c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\Data\Scripts\Source\ObjectReference.psc(51,14): cannot call the member function GetDistance alone or on a type, must call it on a variable

No output generated for trighot1, compilation failed.

Batch compile of 1 files finished. 0 succeeded, 1 failed.

Failed on trighot1

This is common with any script i try and make, following tutorials to the letter except chaning names.

Is my creation kit just broken? Or am I just doing something wrong?

Can you post your entire script? What you have doesn't correspond to the errors you showed. There are not enough lines in that script to match up with the line numbers displayed in the error. Also you have functions mentioned in errors that are not shown in your code.

 

When you display your code use the code tag -- blue angle brackets button

If it is reallly long wrap the code tag in the spoiler tag -- third button from left on top row (green & white square), select the spoiler tag from the dropdown list.

It looks like your object reference class might have been edited. The errors being thrown are on lines 51 and so on which you clearly do not have 51 lines. have you downloaded a lot of mods for your skyrim?

 

EDIT: I just double checked. according to the error thrown your issues are coming from the object reference class, not the actual script you have typed. It is likely you've downloaded a mod which has changed that script.

 

Here is what you'll need to do. go into your skyrim Data folder > scripts and find a file called "ObjectReference.psc"

move it to your desktop and keep it there as a backup in case things don't workout.

 

Now that you scripts folder should be empty of the "ObjectReference.psc" file, open notepad on your computer and paste this code inside it.

save it inside your skyrim data folder > scripts and call it "ObjectReference.psc"

 

Just so you know the issue you ran into isn't a typical issue it just so happens that some mod you have downloaded had some sloppy coding practices and edited one of the most used classes in the game.

 

Now what you will have to do is launch skyrim. If it CTDs then one of your mods is trying to use the ObjectReference script you just moved. Find out which mod and turn it off.

 

P.S. the "ObjectReference.psc" code I pasted above is my version. I do not believe it is any different from skyrim's original version, and the codes I write do not give me any issues from it.

 

Lemme know if you run into any more snags. You can PM me if you need more "scripting" help

Don't bother with copy/pasting someone else's text...

 

Which I just tried and is void of all returns. Without the proper end of line encoding the papyrus engine won't know how to handle it. Especially since there are multiple comment statements. Without proper returns the first comment marker would block off the rest of the script.

 

Just verify the Creation Kit to restore the scripts to stock. If you use SKSE you'll need to re-install those PSC versions after verification.

Do you mean verify using steam?
I did this and it still appears, I tried both methods and the one where i change the objectreference file just gives me an error when I launch skyrim saying that application launch error (does not even go to the launcher, I disabled all mods first and with this new objectreference file I get the error with or without all mods running)

Yeah so I verified using steam, exact same problem is still there afterwards

EDIT: Im going to try deleting the file in scripts/ source/ objectreference and see if steam replaces it with the corect one when i verify both creation kit and skyrim as ive just noticed this file was modified last on the 12/2/2013 around the last time I downloaded some mods

EDIT 2: Ok nope, still happens even with the new file being downloaded from steam

Also just tried copy and pasting everything from an already existing in game script and making a new script and get the same errors

So according to steam, the objectreference file is the correct file, yet it still wont let me do anything in the creation kit.

Ive also reinstalled the creation kit to a new locaiton, but that didnt help

Well im out of ideas, ive tried following step by step guides but there is something wrong in my objectreference file that just simply wont go away

So . . . I'm currently having this same issue. Did you ever find a way around it?

This Topic is 2 years old, better starting a new topic and giving a little more info like pasting the exact error message then someone may be able to help you.

And since that previous round of questions source scripts are now packaged into a scripts.rar file in your Data folder. You need to extract those source files before you can compile scripts. And if something does overwrite one of the scripts you can always just pull a fresh copy out of that archive if you need it.

I know this topic is ancient, but I hope there are still people modding Skyrim, or at least who know more about scripting than I do. I have difficulties trying to make automated timed interior door close/lock script. I found some old Oblivion scripts with exact funtions, but they don't seem to work in Skyrim. Maybe somebody have any ideas, because I'm stuck right now...

Can you explain more about what you want to do. Do you want a door to close and lock automatically behind the player? You can do this with a triggerbox and simple script.
