Good to see more tutorials coming together. When working on a project I like to set Oblivion to run in windowed mode by full screen more to 0 in Oblivion.ini. While you can't make changes in real-time, it does help you to spot fix problems and refer to scripts and settings without having to quit out of the game entirely. JBurgess 09:21, 8 April 2006 (EDT)

That's a good idea. I'll modify the tutorial. I'm not sure my poor computer could handle running Oblivion and the CS at the same time though :) Mrflippy 15:54, 8 April 2006 (EDT)

How would I do this exact same function, but with a one-time use scroll instead? I have tried everything to make a scroll. But in my testing, unable to get it into my inventory using additem or addspell. --Brainspackle 04:04, 9 April 2006 (EDT)

RemoveAllItems

Do you really want to use RemoveAllItems?

That seems a little drastic. Would that not cause the player's inventory to become blank when the spell is cast? If not, what does it do?

--Mrflippy 15:35, 12 April 2006 (EDT): Yes, that's what it does. This was a simple script example, and I wanted to do something interesting without going into spawning dynamic containers and returning the objects back to their rightful owners and all that. I don't even know if there's a way to make the NPCs reequip everything once they get it back. Maybe I should change the effect or put in a warning.

Query

Hey this is a great explanation:

but what i don't understand are the small things, such as where to start a new line and why there are spaces where there are spaces.

but anyway, i would like to create a spell that summons three NPC's or creatures at once. and i would like this spell to be added to the players spell repetoire upon the equipping of a ring. How would i go about doing this?

any tips, guidelines or tutorial scripts would be greatly appreciated..

thanks, Luis
