Armor/Clothing Replacer for Player only.

[xiro8877]

Okay so I have a basic idea that has already been done in Oblivion before and I was just hoping to recreate it in Skyrim. I use a bunch of clothing/armor that's rather skimpy for my female PC but I DO NOT want any other NPC's in the game to wear said skimpy clothing.

 

Unfortunately most skimpy clothing are skimpy armor or clothing replacers of vanilla items and thus puts all NPC's into said skimpy clothing and armor. I'd rather not have this, and I'd much rather my female PC being the only skimpy looking lady on the block. I've seen mods that have done this before for Oblivion such as ((Nexus Link))

So basically I was wanting to attempt to recreate the mod. What the mod did was make a new list of armor and clothing and renamed it to "Fitted (insert clothing name here)" and gave it a brand new item ID. Then it had a script that when the player would pick up or otherwise get the vanilla armor added to your inventory the script would remove the item instantly and instead add the corresponding "fitted" version.

 

Now most of the scripting I've done has all been on Oblivion and it was all modifying existing script to do what I wanted it to so I've never really scripted from complete scratch before. I first attempted to keep it simple and tried to add the script manually to an armor piece by simply creating a script with

 

player.removeitem

player.additem

 

with the corresponding ID's and just added it to the armor. I realize there was nothing that was actually STARTING the script or any lines of text that actually told the script to run and it didn't surprise me much when I equipped the armor and nothing happened. So I'd like some slight guidance and was hoping someone can either point me in the direction as to where I accomplish this feat. I realize that I may manually have to go armor by armor, item by item modifying the script to each piece but if that's necessary I'll do so.

 

If anyone can even tell me how to get the remove item script and add item script to work when I pick up items that alone would be of great help. Thanks for reading guys

You mean something like This?

"*** Contents of this MOD ***

This MOD adds the remodeled equipment from vanilla.

The added equipment is added to a recipe.

You are available by making it in a forge or Sky forge.

 

Do you hope for the substitution of the vanilla equipment?

A thing granting your wish should be found in an optional file."

 

(guy doesn't speak English well) Basically the base mod adds the equipment to the forge,(with differently named nif files) but does not replace the stuff in the world, that way, you, and your companions can wear skimpy stuff, while everyone else doesn't.

 

PS. Just downloaded to check it out, The old equipment is still in the forge, so you can make the Non-Skimpified version, it just adds the Skimpified version. You can also download a "replacer" version in the optional files

 

I wish more modders would do that... however, I understand it is a Whole lot of extra work, and will not be holding my breath.

It really is a lot of extra work. And this is a great place for me to start at least. If he already made alternatives for the armor and clothing with unique CK ID's that alone is a good jumping stone.

 

The problem will however still remain...that if you as a player kill someone wearing an awesome robe and try to equip it you'll find you'll be wearing vanilla robes. Which is why I want to get this script attached to the armor so that when you pick It up the script deletes the item and adds the skimpy version in your inventory instead.

 

I'll check the mod out when I get back from work. Thanks for the heads up though. I'm at least glad someone else has, in some way, started to do what I was wanting to do.
