Hey guys, I just wanted to know HOW to create soulgems in the CS. I looked at the existing soulgems and they dont have any script attached. My idea was to create a Sword that casts SOULTRAP in touch and that served as a soulgem as well! Or at least create a soulgem of my own just for fun. I dont like Azura's Star and I Like the Greater Soul Gem (the purple one) and wanted to create a mix, a purple one that can hold any soul AND that never disapears after enchanting something.
thanks

Poking through TESCS it looks like a lot of the soul gem/enchanting stuff might be hard wired. I don't see anything that looks like it would get you where you want to go in anything relating to the Soul Trap spell effect, soul gems, the Enchanter Service, dialog options for enchanters, or anywhere else.
For that first one, maybe you could attach a script to a sword that checks to make sure that you have at least one empty soul gem in your inventory when it's equipped, and adds one if you don't. That'd give you sort of a similar functionality.
For the second one, you could just change the model and texture for Azura's Star so it looks different.
