Please help me get rid of a weapon shader

Post » Tue May 08, 2012 10:10 pm

I just found OOO's Light of Dawn custom sword. And I'm trying to get rid of a shader attached to it that just doesn't want to go away. It's not the blue flames in case you were wondering - I've already disabled those. At this time, I doubt it matters that it's the Light of Dawn. But I mention it just in case.

The sword has a fire damage enchantment on it, and a script effect. The shader that won't go away looks like the Disintegrate Armor effect shader. And so my assumption was that some mod of mine has made it so the magical effect for scripted effects now has the Disintegrate Armor shader as an enchantment effect.

I loaded up the most likely culprits in the CS. OOO, LAME, Midas, and any mod that even remotely looks related to graphics or magic effects do not change this effect to have an enchantment shader. So i tried to get rid of it on my own. I have my own "tweaks" esp. I made it so the script effect does not have an enchantment shader attached to it. Didn't work. Loaded it up before the Bashed Patch, merged, then tried it after the Bashed Patch. That shader is still there.

I've hit a wall. At this point, I don't think I care which mod adds it - I just want to know how to get rid of it, with my own tweaks or otherwise. Any suggestions?

OK I solved it. It's LAME's special shader esp that tweaks/improves many enchantment shaders. In this case for Fire Damage, not a Script Effect. Somehow I never noticed this on a fire weapon. Although I usually stay away from enchanted weapons because I find them a distraction. But I'm definitely hanging on to Light of Dawn!

I changed the three "persistent" values in LAME's custom shader to be 0. That way you get an initial glow, then it fades to nothing. Just like I like it.

(This isn't a bug on LAME's part, btw, just my personal preference. I hate having enchantment shaders in my face when I'm trying to fight :) )
