Creating New Super Items
- 1 of 10: In this tutorial section, we're going to make a brand new ring that will, when worn, put a constant Spell Absorption of 100 points and a constant Sanctuary of 100 points on its wearer. This will effectively make you immune to magic and nearly immune to melee attacks.
- 2 of 10: In order to make a new item with a new enchantment (which is what we're doing), we must first create the new enchantment. Click on the "Enchanting" tab in the Object Window to get a list of all the currently existing enchantments. Right-click on any of them and choose "New" from the window that pops up.
- 3 of 10: Now you have a blank new Enchanting record that you can fill out. Start by typing "super_ring_prot_en" (without quote marks) in the ID field. Then change the Cast Type field to "Constant Effect" by clicking on the arrow to the right of the field and choosing from the list.
- 4 of 10: Now to add our super-cool effects! Click on the down arrow next to the first blank Effects field and choose "Spell Absorption" from the scrolling list that appears. On the second blank Effect, choose "Sanctuary."
- 5 of 10: Now go over to the Magnitude fields and set both of them to 100 for both enchantments. When you're done with that, click on the "OK" button near the bottom right corner of the window to create the enchantment record.
- 6 of 10: Now click on the "Clothing" tab in the Object Window to get a list of the already-existing clothing items. The easiest way to create a new item is to modify an existing one and save it as a new item, so choose a ring item and double-click on it to bring up its data window. (I used "ring_wind_unique" when I did this.)
- 7 of 10: Change the ID field to read "super_ring_prot". That'll make this into a new item, since items are identified by their ID. Also change the Name field to be something new, like "Ring of Ultimate Protection."
- 8 of 10: Now go to the bottom left part of the window and click on the arrow next to the Enchanting field. Scroll around until you find "super_ring_prot_en" and click on it to choose it.
- 9 of 10: That's it! Your ring is basically done now. You can edit other fields (like Value to make it super-expensive), but that's not necessary. Press the "Save" button at the bottom of the window, then click on "Yes" when asked if you really want to create a new object.
- 10 of 10: NOTE: As for getting your new super ring while playing the game, the easiest way is to use a console cheat to give the item to yourself. That's a lot simpler than trying to use the Construction Set to place the item somewhere you can find it. Once the game is loaded with your new plug-in, press ~ to get the console and type:
player->additem super_ring_prot 1
That'll put one copy of the ring in your inventory, and you can go there and equip it to gain your great new effects!
