TesFaith# / TesFaithSharp Problem

Post » Thu Jul 29, 2010 6:01 pm

I finally decided to try moving some land, and the whole command line thing is too overwhelming for me. Plus the land I am moving has multiple regions in it.
So I decided to give TesFaith Sharp a try.

TesFaith Sharp seems simple enough to use, but I must be doing something wrong, as only the land is being moved. All the statics and such are staying in the original cells.

What should I be doing to get everything to move? And is there a better utility for moving land that is easier to use than the original TesFaith?

It's been a while, but IIRC, TESFaithSharp does not move objects the way it claims it can. I remember having to move a whole region full of door markers across the map by hand so they could join up with the moved land, and that was a real pain I must say. My rather limited advice; take the extra time you need to learn the command line operations in TESFaith, and use that to do the actual moving. In the end, it's not that horribly difficult and is, I think, more reliable. In fact, for large landmasses, I think you'll also find it way quicker to use a command-line 'rule' in TESFaith rather than moving things cell by cell in TESFaithSharp. Do, however, use TESFaithSharp to get a good visual overview of your progress or to do small jobs.

Note that TESFaith might fail to move some things and crash. I'm not sure if it's related to unrecognized textures or what, but a couple of mods proved problematic for me (I think Dulsya Isle might have been one). Otherwise, it's been invaluable. I think that's what I used to move Wizards Islands (unofficially). http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?xg0kydnyyit

hi RWTS

the old versions of tesfaith had issues with moving stuff. i think the current ver is .96 beta. i looked at the website. the faq and readme are online.
i haven't tried sharp so i cant say much about it.

LOL, looks like I will have to get my hubby to teach me about command line use.
It all seems so overwhelming. Also, I am concerned about all the specific regions within these two landmasses. Unless there is a way in TESFaith to move the whole continents...
I have avoided complicated utilities and such for so many years. Old and stubborn I guess. ;)
