where has my pipboy gone?  has anyone seen anything like this before?

Verify the Cache of the game through Steam

Check the mods you downloaded to see if there is something suppose to change this.

If all else fails go back to previous saves to see if it reappears, (bad save) or try a new game after backing up your saves to see if it is the saves / game itself.

 

I had the damest time fixing a POV issue with pipboy ended up being a save alteration and perhaps command to change my toons looks. I never use readus mods before but with this game.. might just start doing this.

Wow.. never found that bug yet. 62 hours.. POV error is all I gotten.. . I'll have to remember that if that happens to me.

thanks for your advice guys.

I tried the V and R solution without any change. 

I tried loading a previous save. still no pipboy

I uninstalled all body or armor/clothing mods and loaded a different save game. still no pipboy. 

I gave up. reinstalled all my mods. decided to just ignore the minuteman generals hat I will be wearing forever now, and climbed back in my powerarmor.

after a while playing I pressed m without thinking.  my pipboy is back!  but only when I am inside my powerarmor.  weird.
