📋 About This Mod
A ring of power that can force unlock nearly any door, container or terminal, play animations for vault doors and security gates, enable blocked elevators and card readers. Work around broken quests, or just open the world up without quests or actor chitchat.
[ Open says me ]
Install this non intrusive mod at any time in any game to give you an [. SKK Open Anything Ring] after waking up in Vault 111 cryo. It makes no static changes to your game until it is equipped/worn to add additional activation menu options:
(a) [ FORCE OPEN ] to force unlock and open any locked door, container or terminal bypassing perk requirements, keys or quest triggers.
(b) [ FORCE ANIMATION ] to common objects with open animations that can get stuck in quests such as Vault doors, DC Main Gate, Railroad puzzle, Castle Armory or Security Doors.
(c) [ ENABLE ELEVATOR ] to elevator call buttons that use the standard ElevatorMasterScript.
(d) [ BYPASS READER ] to ID card readers that use the standard IDCardReaderScript.
(d) [ FORCE ACTIVATE ] on some special quest dependent objects.
Take off the ring to stop the additional activation menus appearing on objects.
Craft a replacement at the chemlab under .
Other BASE FORMS (not ObjectReferences) with open animations using "Open" or "Stage2" can be added with xEdit to form list SKK_OAUserObjects. The next time the game loads, the [ FORCE ANIMATION ] option will appear when the ring is worn.
If you want to hotkey enable/disable the function rather than use the ring, the console command strings:
cqf SKK_OAQuest "SKK_OAQuestScript. OAStart"
cqf SKK_OAQuest "SKK_OAQuestScript. OAStop"
List of SPECIFIC objects this activates in addition to regular locked terminals, doors and containers:
Vault111 Geardoor
Vault81 Geardoor
Vault81 MS19 secret panel
Railroad secret brick door
Diamond City Main gate
Castle Armory door
Institute access tunnel MQ302Keypad and associated institute access doors
Institute emergency exit relay button
Limitations & Considerations
(1) Any associated quests, triggers or scripts are not managed. This is a brute force method to open stuff bypassing broken quests, or to provide quick OpenWorld(TM) access.
(2) This will not solve problems with doors that have blockers or object swaps which depend on undetectable "enable state parent" triggers like the Fort Hagen wooden door blockers,
