Help a Newb

Post by Faeryl »

I have a problem that is confounding me, and I really need your help.

I am trying to test out parts of the Skullport mod. Since the mod uses the acr spawn scripts, the only way I can test the creature's conversations and stores in single player mode is to actually place them in the area.

My problem is that I can't seem to place the creatures. They are there, hanging on the cursor, but when I click in the area to place them, nothing happens.

It's not that hard right? Click on the creature in the blueprints tab, then click in the area.
Seriously. What am I missing here?

:oops:

Got me, Faeryl. That's how it usually works. Check your Show/Hide filters to make sure they're turned on. And check in the Area Contents tab under Creatures to see if maybe they're actually there somewhere.

I've done it to myself. BTW, if you can access Chat, we have a toolset support channel: #alfa-builders There's usually someone on there who can answer questions.
