In the window titled 'Object Window', go to the Items drop-down and from there you'll find Weapons. Well, the first thing you need to do is pick out a weapon type.įor my example, I'm going to choose an Ebony Mace, as my character uses maces. Okay, the Creation Kit is loaded and all the game assets are available for you to use. It's going to take a few moments to load everything so don't panic. Once that's all set up, simply open the Creation Kit, go to File -> Data and double click on the Skyrim.esm file until it's got an 'x' next to it. Sign up for a account, then download the launcher that will have the Creation Kit.
