I create a mod for add more affinities

Blasphemy. Stupidest idea I have ever seen. I am appalled...

Darctalus approves. *adds mod anyway*

[Ananda]

Thanks! Looks nice

I was trying to mod the affinities as well, but I didn't figure out how/where to change the displayed name of the special class in the hero menu.

I've edited "Message \ 00E_Game_Affinity_" using TES5Edit and can see all the correct names in the spellbook. But as soon as I'm unlocking the affinity, it still shows the old/regular name in the hero menu after pressing "H".

Btw: FULL Name in the category "Spells" / "_00E_Affinity_" is edited as well.

Could you tell me please where to find the correct entries and how to change the name of the special class displayed in the hero menu?

Any advice and suggestions would be greatly appreciated

This is really cool. I always wanted to play a two-handed warrior with some undead related skills, like raising some corpses as allies and that sort of stuff, having the WoW death knight in mind. I wasn't sure if that affinity already existed in the vanilla game. Obviously not. : )

Most of your affinities sound rather immersive and interesting. I guess one problem could be balancing, though.

Hi,
you cant change name because that message load on script at start and then stay saved in save game. Really that script is bad optimice, but are so much script that they made, is normal. But no problem, you can go, in ck, to quest levelsystem, quest aliase, aliase name = player, and you need change _00E_Game_SkillmenuSC script properties, concretly __Config_AffinityNames.

I hope had help you.

Hi,
I try to balance all new affinities like vanilla, but if somebody thinks that some affinity is overpower or vice versa, can tell me and i can improve the mod.

The reason is the Hero menu It only accepts strings in that particular part of the menu (the affinity name), hence we had to do with this work-around, or everybody would have to live with the german names of the affinities...
The main problem is that we don't have an interface programmer anymore, hence we have to live with this idiotic way of doing things

Jajajaja, its ok, we have to work with the tools that we have XD.
I dont tested it, but maybe if change string array to a formlist in the script properties, would is posible add and modify names of affinities without touch the script.

One last question
So I've opened _00E_Game_SkillmenuSC via editor and found the entries __Config_AffinityNames[X] = _00E_Game_Affinity_...
If I want to rename one of those entries, what exactely do I have to do? For example, the first line is:
__Config_AffinityNames[0] = _00E_Game_Affinity_BattlemageName.GetName()
I guess that the second part ("_00E_Game_Affinity_BattlemageName.GetName()") has to be changed, right?
So if I want to name it, let's say "NewName", do I just have to write those name instead of the right string (quoted I guess), or do I have to add "( )" as well, maybe in combination with any other code?
Sorry, but I've never used CK before and scripting is something totally new for me

Hi, you need ck, because you need change the properties that game give to the array property with the names. Follow the steps that i said you.
I hope help you and if you need more information tell me

Hi! Sorry for the misunderstanding... I've used CK (for the very first time), but I wasn't able to change the script properties because of an error: "Errors encountered while attempting to reload the script." That's the reason why I was trying to edit the script
Btw: I'm receiving about 30 warnings while opening data / skyrim.esm. No idea if this is kind of "normal", but I think scripting is a little too complicated for me at the moment. Thanks again for your help and support!

You need reinstal skse and install papyrus Util. Both are simple to install.

Done, thank you!

I still receive all the warnings at start up, but I can now open the properties window for script _00E_Game_SkillmenuSC.

All the String Values for __Config_AffinityNames are German though and that's really confusing

Should I still change the properties (string values) for__Config_AffinityNames and __Config_AffinityNames_Female?

warnings can be disabled in SkyrimEditor.ini in your Skyrim/ folder.
Search for the part with [Messages]
And change bShowErrorMessages=1 to bShowErrorMessages=0.

Yes, you must change those arrays and the "message" properties with the affinities names too.
