Level Problem

[Amber Slime]

So i just discovered the wonders of the console commands. I had started as a high elf detirmend
to make myself and overpowerd wizard. when i set my skills using console, it decided to constantly harass me with level ups. any one know of a way to stop this? and how not to cause it in future attemps?

That wasn't the smartest move. If you want to be overpowered, why not just lower the difficulty slider? Do you remember what commands you used? If you set your major skills to be higher, you might have missed the stat multipliers for your lesser skills and ironically ended up handicapping yourself.

So, I assume you used this command
advskill <skill> <nn>
Forces a skill level up
Using this method the game's internal mechanics will report a skill increase when you enter this command, and it will advance normally (unlike modpcs on pre 1.1.511 versions of Oblivion which was subject to a bug that caused locking the skill in place until internal re-synch). However, using this command to increase the level of a major skill too high will result in messing up your level-ups, as it will register several major skill increases. Using negative or extremely high numbers may crash the game.

Not good. when used on a small scale it is fine. such as 10 max on a major increase. I however would not add more than 5, exit the console , see what has happened and then repeat if wanted.

A safer way but a little more complicated is
setav <attribute> <nn>
Sets value of attribute
Setav recognizes the same attributes as getav (see Actor Value Indices). If used on a skill, it will increase the skill without causing inadvertent level-up issues (like with "advskill"); the expertise level message does not show but the expertise level is increased or decreased correctly.

Use this to set your skill and attributes to the number you want. 100 in all attributes, 100 in any or all skills, 1000 health, magicks, fatigue. you will need to use
setlevel <nn>
Changes target's level
Does not bring up the usual level advance screen; also see "advlevel" below.

you could use
advlevel
Forces a levelup
This command does display the usual levelup dialog where you select the attributes to increase. When using this, the number of times you have to level up your major skills to level again does NOT advance. This means that if you had 3 major skill levels until your next level, and you used the advlevel command to level three times, you will need 23 major skill improves before the game starts leveling you again.

but i would only use this before set my skills and attributes. I would stick with Setlevel.

All of this info comes from

Do not forget to give yourself awesome items of power.

BTW- your damage is done. revert to a save before using the console which resulted in your continual message.
