Previewing Female Armors - an Alternative?

[ZigNewton]

There are a lot of outfits made exclusively for female characters, but as someone who plays exclusively male characters, I can't always preview them for my lady followers. I find it a mild annoyance to sex-change myself in the console just to see what some of these outfit pieces look like every time I browse the forge or the tanning rack.

 

Are there any alternatives to adding the outfits through console, or swapping my gender whenever I browse? A convenient mod, maybe? A programmable hotkey?

You can try this http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/4164/? (Has not been updated for many months. Quick forum browse did not indicate any problems)

There is also this http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=10950 (But I don't know how buggy this one can make your game.)

Why not just create a female save file and just use that  for testing purposes?

 

I mean it would still be a bit tedious, but this way you can simply just load that profile after downloading a batch of armors and just take turns swapping out armors.

Or use nifskope.

This might not be helpful for custom armor, but it works good for replacers.

Though it can't do anything about custom armor, the Madd Haven mod is pretty handy, thanks.

 

I do remember trying out the mannequin replacer a while back, but having a few problems, though since this is my second installation of the game and all my mods, I've had much fewer problems, and I might try using it again. It might work well considering I'm using a different combination of mods now.

 

Thanks for all your suggestions, guys!

That madd haven mod is kind of creepy to be honest... lol.
