Constant Flame Effect

Post » Mon Oct 08, 2012 4:29 am

Hi all,

Has anyone come across anything like this?
I have enchanted some weaponry via the CS, none of the weaponry I have enchanted has any flame enchantments on it and neither does it have a visual effect.
When in-game however my character and her weaponry are accompanied by a constant flame effect and a the sound of fire, be it on bows, swords or arrows themselves.
Is this a bug or is it a one-off "thing"?

Is it a result of enchanting weaponry whilst that weaponry is still in the inventory?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thank you!
Phon :)

Could you pass us the plugin to see if it happens for us as well? Also, any more details about precisely what you did would be appreciated.

Yeah sorry, I went straight back to testing afterwards and forgot the basics. #whoops.

I think I found the problem, and you guys will doubtless roll your eyes and go "Well duh, Phon."
But anyway: I put a [disintegrate weapon] enchantment on a shield, obvious when you think about it but it seems that whenever the shield was equipped, even if Niamh was using a bow; there would be an accompanying flame effect on a.n. other weapon, including her fists.
Once the enchantment was removed and replaced with something else, e.g. [reflect damage] the effect did not seem to occur.
It did not happen if the shield was in the inventory but NOT equipped

I confess I'm not sure why as it's a valid enchantment for apparel but there we go...
