Warning: Quest Alias not found

Post » Tue Feb 23, 2016 3:39 am

I hope some kind soul will be able to help with this; I haven't actively modded for a couple of years now, and seem to have forgotten the little I knew before my break from making mods!



I'm currently updating Immersive Creatures (released a belated hotfix yesterday) but I've received complaints from users that they're still getting reports as follows from TES5Edit:



Checking for Errors in [1A] Skyrim Immersive Creatures.esp

[00:08] SIC_WE11GroupMovement [PACK:1A51DF33]

[00:08] PACK \ Package Data \ Data Input Values \ Value \ PTDA - Target \ Target Data \ Target ->

[00:08] PACK \ Package Data \ Data Input Values \ Value \ PTDA - Target \ Target Data \ Target ->



Is this error something to be concerned about, and if so would you be able to point me in the direction of a fix?



Many thanks

It depends on how important those packages are. They'll never work without a target, and the message indicate the Quest Alias they referenced has been removed.

I have no idea what the packages do, but if, for example, they had one NPC follow another, who was the alias in the referenced quest, then they won't any more.

The CK will flag this sort of error when you open the esp, and it may just be a case of editing the target to point to the new alias that replaced the old one. Or you might end up totally re-scripting an elaborate scene. Murphy suggests the latter.
