I'm creating a custom item, using already existing meshes and textures, to fortify mercantile the same way the skeleton key fortifies security. Or at least, I'm trying to. I've run into a weird problem, which probably has a simple solution. This is my first time creating an item mod, and I can't interact with my item. I've placed it in the game world using the construction set, but when I load up Oblivion and go to where I've placed it, it's just hanging in mid-air, with no way to take it. What do I need to do to make it more than just scenery?

OK, I solved my own problem. Somehow, my object was categorized under Items->MiscItem instead of Items->MiscItem->Clutter. I deleted it, re-created it under the right sub-category, and now I can interact with it. And my item works the way I intend it to, too!
