dannyboy41 Posted July 9, 2012 Author Posted July 9, 2012 Bash patch may help. ok using bash for the first time a touch complicated but i think im getting there, i hope it will automatically solve the problem ?
gregathit Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 Dannyboy41, it probably will not solve your issue. x117 has issues with a lot of the vanilla stuff due to the meshes. You will need to find some patches for the x117 races or try to use custom helmets (many custom helmets work fine). Try google searching for x117 helmets.

Poontank Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 When I bought some hoods recently, I found that I somewhat slightly messed up editing the mod, don't even know what I did wrong. I just put the items into both merchants' chests, but for some reason they are selling multiple copies (separate entries in the barter menu) of the helmets and hoods. And the Shrouded Hood still refuses to show up. Once I've got more time, I'll look into the problem and try to solve it for good. It's a minor quirk with those barter lists, but I'd really like the missing item to show up. A modding challenge! I love it. In general, this is a common problem with such races (x117, x105, x110) because the head mesh is indeed larger while the characters' height is scaled down. This changes such races' overall proportions for a more youthful appearance. Closed helmets can in theory be used without problems, eg the Dwarven helmet, but it looks weird if an x117 character wears headgear which makes the head visibly shrink down. Any headgear and hairstyles can be edited in NifSkope to adapt them to those races' head size. For x117 races, working scaling factors are x: 1.17, Y: 1.17 and z: 1.08. Objects are scaled by right-clicking on them in the 3D window and selecting 'Transform -> Scale Vertices' from the appearing context menu. It's preferable over using the factor 1.17 in the 'Transform -> Edit' menu. This would apply the factor to the z axis as well, making headgear hover above a character's head (but it can be moved down).
