For a mod I am making, I am using Script Effects for many unique spells. For some reason, the spells to resurrect NPCs causes the game to crash if cast on a valid target. Here is the script I am using.

scn CHEATReviveref refbegin ScriptEffectStart	set ref to GetSelf	if (ref.getdead == 1)		resurrect	endifend

There is another script that is essentially the same, except it uses Resurrect 1 for standing up revival.

Look at the WIKI: http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index.php/Resurrect

Specifically this part:

Hmm, I am still having issues. What is the script equivalent to using just resurrect in the console? I don't get the animate flag thing.

I thought it was self explanitory.

Console:

resurrect

Script:

resurrect 1

I am not sure it would cause the CTD or not. But its a start.

resurrect 1 is used to cause the actor to stand up out of their death state. I want to use the script to resurrect them by resetting them completely.

resurrect and resurrect 1 are exactly the same function - a number flag (1) at the end of it just tells the game to play additional get up animation of the target and nothing else.
so, your only option here is to use resurrect 1 in your script, as without this flag the game crashes as you experienced yourself...

Try specifying a reference for the Resurrect function, like this:

Begin ScriptEffectStart	Set Ref to GetSelf	If Ref.GetDead == 1		Ref.Resurrect 1	EndIfEnd

And yes, you do have to put the 1 there. :thumbsup:

Edit: eep, sorry Trollf, didn't see you there! :foodndrink:

Yeah, you need to specify the number when used in a script.
