Skyrim Creation Kit Change Item Slot

Changing item slot - posted in Skyrim Creation Kit and Modders: I am trying to edit an item in the CreationKit so that it occupies a different item slot than it does currently so that it doesnt collide with an item from another mod. It doesnt seem to be working though. I go into the creation kit, edit both the addon armor and the armor. Uncheck the current item slot and then select another. Apr 12, 2016  Bored of the vanilla followers in Skyrim? Can't find the perfect marriage partner? If you own a PC copy of the game, you can rectify this disappointing state of affairs by creating a companion of your very own. Although there are a lot of steps, it's not complicated to do, and this tutorial will guide you every step of the way, even if you're a Creation Kit noob.

This wiki is meant to document areas of Skyrim modding that have very little documentation (SKSE and some areas of Papyrus and Creation Kit). There are many great resources already available for taking first steps in the Creation Kit. I highly recommend watching all of the Official Video Tutorials.

Below are a few points that most tutorials don't mention.

Disable Creation Kit's Nags

Disable Creation Kit from warning you every time you load a .esp be setting in SkyrimEditor.ini:bBlockMessageBoxes=1

Unofficial Patches

Pretty much everyone has the unofficial patches installed, and you might consider using them as dependencies for your mod because they fix a massive number of bugs in the game and you don't want your mod to rely on those bugs.

  2. Install patches
  1. Install LOOT (A replacement for BOSS)

  3. Select the unofficial patches' .esp files when you start Creation Kit.
Using Content from the DLCs / Modding the DLCs

To use content from the DLCs or to mod the DLCs, you'll need to change some Creation Kit settings to prevent it from crashing when it loads the DLCs' content.

  1. Make sure all the DLCs are installed
  • Steam -> Library -> Right click on Skyrim -> Properties -> DLCs
  1. Set Bethesda DLCs to load in Creation Kit

SKSE and Creation Kit Installation

When the Creation Kit is installed, it installs all of the .psc and .pex Papyrus scripts into SkyrimDataScripts. It will overwrite any existing files, so if you already had SKSE installed then you will need to reinstall it.

Scripting Functionality

The first place to look for finding if something is possible is to search through the Papyrus Reference. This has nearly all of the vanilla Papyrus functions listed. Next, see if the functionality exists in Creation Kit quests. There are many things that can be done in quests that can't be done in Papyrus. For example, it's possible to add an AI package to an NPC through a quest, but this can't be done through Papyrus. Finally, try SKSE. Some of SKSE's built-in functions are also listed in the Papyrus Reference, but many are not. Even if what you're trying to do isn't built into SKSE, you should consider writing an SKSE plugin yourself to extend what SKSE already does.

  1. Papyrus
  2. Quest
  3. SKSE built-in
  4. Make SKSE plugin
