I'm trying to make a mod that disable the pc level requirement so I have an equal chance of seeing a skeleton champion as I do an ancestral ghost. I created my plugin by going into the "leveled creature" tab and changing every instance of "All<=PC" to no. I cleaned the mod with testool and created a new mashed patch with wrye mash but on starting a new game all the enemies are still scaled. My unleveled world esp is the last in my load order before the mashed patch so is the mashed patch reinserting the level scaling or have I been approaching this the wrong way entirely?

 

I made the same topic with an uploaded image of my leveled creature tab on the morrowind mod troubleshooting section of the nexus forums so you can head over there to see the image, I'd post a link but I don't know if that constitues advertising.

You said you unchecked the box for "Calculate from all levels <= PC's Level".  You could try editing the list and setting everything on the list to say level 1 on the right hand side of the Leveled Creature window that pops up when you double click on an entry.

Calculate From All Levels<=PC’s Level. If this box is not checked, only creatures that are
equal to the level of the PC will be placed at that location. If checked, any creature equal
to or lower in level to the PC will be placed at that location. (If more than one creature
meets these parameters, one is chosen at random).

So, Unchecking actually makes it so that creatures appear only at a particular level, not before or after.

So to achieve what you want, you have to make every creature appear at level 1 and have to check All<=PC for it to work.

That was my first attempt but while double clicking the level entries for vanilla monsters works anything from a mod requires mashing left click a good dozen times until the level changes to an editable box. Is there a patch for the construction set to make editing level entries from mods more responsive?

You have to triple-click it or press F2.

Thanks.

You too.

 

Finished it. Pressing F2 and changing every value to 1 was a pain so I made an autohotkey script to do it with a single button press. Thanks again for the help I've now been killed by level 30 enemies a few steps out of Seyda Neen, the way it should be.

I found I could normally edit those values with a SLOW double-click. *shrugs*

The mod is finished now but I did it quickly by opening a blank autohotkey script and typing

3::
Send {F2}1

Once the script was running I just had to press 3 on each level entry and they instantly became 1.
