What we will accomplish

  1. Creating a new enchantment
  2. Enchanting a new weapon

Creating the new weapon

First, go to the Object Window and expand the following items in the tree:

For this tutorial I will be using an existing mesh of an elven longsword, you can use whatever mesh you want, expand the tree to the following:

Items > Weapon > Elven

And select the WeapElvenLongSword. Change the EditorID to AAEnchantTutorial so it will be at the top. Click OK.

Creating the enchantment

Right, now go to the following node in the Object Window:

Magic > Enchantment

Rightclick in the list and choose New. An empty enchantment window will pop-up. In the EditorID box write AAEnchantment. Next, in the effects box, click new and scroll down until you find 'Frost Damage', click on that. Leave the Range box as it is.

  • Set the area to 2
  • Set the Duration to 2
  • Set the Magnitude to 5

Now click OK. This should leave you with something like this:

Attaching the enchantment to the sword

  • In the Enchantment box set it to 2000.
