Fix for the aura of the Dawnguard Rune Shield not activating when changing weapons through skyui (papyrus call)
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
- Donations
Description:
I have noticed that when you change the weapons using the group function of the skyui, some items that work with the script OnEquipped - ObjectReference fails to apply their perk, spell or magic effect. In this case the Dawnguard Rune Shield has two scripts: One for apply the defense/damage plus against vampires and the other script for the sun aura effect. The event when equipping through skyui (papyrus call) not fire when we equip the shield, this is because a limitation of how the script works. From the creation kit script reference page: "This event wont always fire. If the item is being equipped normally through the Inventory it works as intended. If it equipped through the console or papyrus calls instead, the event will not fire".
So i just simply dropped the script from the item and added as enchantment using the creation kit, in fact Spellbreaker shield works as intended and does not have this issue and it uses an enchant, and besides it was really anoying when you are in combat and you want to quickly change your bow to your rune shield to fight melee using the fantastic skyui function and it fails to apply the aura effect.
I made a fomod installer of six versions of this fix:
Installation:
It comes with a fomod installer, so just use nexus mm, if you want to install it manually just copy one of the esp in the 00 Main folder in your data folder
Warnings:
Sometimes, when you install the mod for the first time, the aura from the shield stop working. To fix it just drop your shield and pick it up again, this will fix the issue.
I recommend to use LOOT after the install

- The shield is heavy armor and it will drain magicka instead of stamina, i think this fits better for a paladin roll character
- The shield is light armor and it will drain magicka instead of stamina, i you want to keep it like vanilla but you think like me that does not have much sense that a MAGIC aura drain stamina
- The shield is heavy armor and it will not drain magicka nor stamina like the Spellbreaker ward effect
- The shield is light armor and it will not drain magicka nor stamina
- The shield is heavy armor and it will drain stamina
- The shield is light armor and it will drain stamina as usual, no changes
