Medallion of Silence

So I have been trying to fix the medallion of silence by editing the script that is called when the user where it. (30022Medallion_of_Concealment_WEILD_ON.scr)
I see that the script is set up similar to the machined plate mail and figured that was why this item doesn't work. So I changed the script to use a custom effect like so

Code:

0. give Triggerer the effect 399 with cause 5
1. return and RUN default
2. do nothing
3. do nothing
4. do nothing
5 remove from Trifferer the effect 399
6. return and RUN default

I then added a line 399 into effect.mes with the effect of prowling +2
I then loaded up my game and attached the item to no effect.
I then tried another idea i saw on the forums and edited the script to look like this

Code:

0. magic/tech: adjust 1 by item Attachee used by Triggerer: store in Counter 0

1. Local 0 = Counter 0

2. IF Local 0 == 0
    THEN return and RUN default
    ELSE give Triggerer the effect 399 with cause 5

3. Local 0 = Local 0 - 1

4. goto line 2

5. Local 0 = Counter 0

6. IF Local 0 == 0
    THEN return and RUN default

7. remove from Triggerer the effect 399

8. Local 0 = Local 0 - 1

9. goto line 6

Again I loaded up a save game and attached the item to no effect.
Is there something I am missing or is this Item just FUBAR. Any help from the modders here would be greatly appreciated.

 

Could you post your "399 into effect.mes with the effect of prowling +2" line 399?

Arcanum (mid dev cycle) changed from big to small representational stat numbers.

Just curious. I'm not skilled at all in Arcanum scripting.

 

Yeah here is the line verbatum from my effect.mes file

Code:

{399}{prowling +2} // Added for medallion of silence by Rabid Pulse

I thought maybe that this could be the problem so I even tried calling a different line from the effect.mes file I think effect 221. I am pretty sure the problem is with my script, but I just don't see the error.

 

I could probably help, but since I don’t know/ don’t remember where the item is in the game, I couldn’t check if the counters are all set right.
