could please run me by how to activate the quests that add the ammo types to it(I know how to rechamber them in fnvedit so thats fine)
Ive never used GECK so sorry in advance.
#1: Add Caliber.esm as a master to your mod. This is done by checking off -only- Caliber.esm and whatever the mod you're tweaking is called, and setting the mod file as the "Active" file.
#2: Add a quest named CaliberStartup{YourModName}Quest. Be sure to give your quest a unique EditorID as well - you'll need that for the scripting to come. Personally, I just make the quest name and EditorID the same.
So if your mod is called BigGameRifles, name your quest: "CaliberStartupBigGameRiflesQuest".
#3: Set this quest to start when the game starts, check to use the default script processing delay, and set a priority of 60 (or higher). When done, "OK" out of the quest - leave the script blank for now..
#4: Create a new script. Here is a sample template script you could use to activate 6.5 Grendel and 7.62x39 (be wary of spelling errors/typos. I know in reality the ammo name is "Grendel", but I think in the game assets it's referred to as "grendal", so go with whatever it is in the game files)
scn AmmoActivateQuestScript ;The name of your script, it can be anything really but I'd go with that.
begin gamemode
;this is the ammo you are activating, every ammo in Caliber has a quest that controls its distribution, by starting that quest you ;are adding the ammo to the wasteland, 6.5 Grendal and 7.62x39mm has ;been used here as an example, you can find the names ;of the Caliber quests by looking in the GECK
startquest CaliberActivateQuest65Grendal
startquest CaliberActivateQuest762x39
stopquest AmmoActivateQuest ;Stops the quest that's running this scripts as its not needed now
end ;The end
#5: Change the drop down at the top of the script editor to "Quest", and save the script.
#6: Reopen the quest you created earlier . Select your script from the script dropdown. Make sure "Start game Enabled" is still checked, along with the box for "default script processing delay", then "OK" out of the quest window.
#7: Hit save.
#8: Set your weapon(s) to use the appropriate ammo list(s), shell casings, and projectile resources. (you said you already know how to do that in FNVEdit)
would also like to know if this mod works with WAP
Also, GECK is informing me that the iActivate454Casull is an unknown variable or function, i've spent too long on this mod to just give up lol
Here is the script I made following the guide the the readme.
scn myquestScript
Begin GameMode
set CaliberActivateQuest.iActivate454Casull to 1
set CaliberActivateQuest.iActivate303British to 1
set CaliberActivateQuest.iActivate380ACP to 1
set CaliberActivateQuest.iActivateCaliber to 1
stopquest myquest
End
like 50 mg explosive doesnt want to work with any 50 cal guns
CaliberX is very unpolished, and since the author currently has no interest in updating it, it's best to just use something else.
In the readme, and a few other posts regarding how to word your script, it states to add: Stopquest CaliberStartup{Quest Name}Quest below the ammo activation scripts. That single line was my only error. I finally got it to save after I changed it to: Stopquest {Quest Name} or more specifically: Stopquest NewAmmo. (NewAmmo being the name of my quest.)
So I'm just a bit confused why this worked and the original directions didn't. Anyone else have this happen to them?
scn CaliberStartupKar98KQuestScript
begin gamemode
Startquest CaliberActivateQuest8x57
Startquest CaliberActivateQuest8x57AP
Startquest CaliberActivateQuest8x57HP
Stopquest CaliberStartupKar98KQuest
end
when i try to save it only gives the pop up message "save script current=" when i click save, nothing happens.
i tried the notepad instructions and the one in the sticky note, but no bueno. im new to GECK and i dont know shit. maybe doing something wrong.
scn CaliberStartupKar98KQuestScript
begin GameMode
Startquest CaliberActivateQuest8x57
StopQuest CaliberStartupDar98KQuest
end
hope this helps :)
