The script goes like this.

It works fine for static objects, but it doesn't work for objects that can be put into the players inventory. Strangely enough it worked before for several weeks in the past, but recently this script no longer functions for inventory objects.

The script itself is perfect, but why did it stop working on inventory objects? Was there some change to the game itself or something recently? Any ideas? I'd be very thankful for any help on this baffling issue.

Hi,

I think the problem comes from Havok-enabled items. In your OnLoad() event handler add the following line:

SetMotionType(Motion_Keyframed, TRUE)

And, see also the vanilla defaultDisableHavokOnLoad.psc script in the Scripts\Source folder.

Thank you so much for sharing that, adding that to the event handler easily fixed the problem.

Always a pleasure
