The Welkian effect

Does anyone know how to trun off those stupid bubbles that follow you
around when wearing enchanted items?

No Glo and Improved glow remove take care of the Saran Wrap, but not
the bubbles.

I feel like I am being stalked by Lawrence Welk.

Yes, but it was tedious.

Maybe someone else can help with an easier way to do this.

Since I was curious, I messed around with the "shield" spell since that puts
a bubble around the player.

My attempt would probably make for a "dirty" mod though.... (Spellcasters
would also lose their "bubble" not just enchanted items.)


----------
In Photoshop, delete contents of "VFX_<effectname>.tga"-- so that its blank.

In the CS, go under "magic effects" & look for the particle texture file
associated "shield" & also its "Area Effects Visual" (scroll menu where you
choose "VFX_effectname" for that spell.) Change the VFX particle texture
files so they have nothing to display (blank).

Made a test enchantment (constant shield 50%) & put it on a bonemold
cuirass.

In game testing of cuirass had no player bubble. Yay!

It still had the stars though. Would probably have to go back, find the
files for the stars, etc. etc.

So it *is* possible to turn off bubbles, but maybe someone else knows of an
easier way?

LOL

I like the Lawrence Welk comparison! That's going back a ways.

Anyway please post if you find a mod-- I'm sure there's got to be an easier
way than what I did.

thx
