Somebody smart and savy please help

[tampabrad]

When I equip bottom armor, pants, skirt, etc it equips fine.  The problem is as soon as I equip top armor it unequips bottom.  Only one character seems to work fine.  They are all low levels so I don't know what could be different.  This problem came out of no where.  So confused of why its happening.  Somebody please help. ty

In the game only certain items of clothing will allow you to equip armour of any kind on top.

If this is for the game FO4, try using "military fatigues"  or a "vault suit"

Its for skyrim.  I don't get why it does this.  The armor or clothes immm using was desingned by modder to be used in separate pieces it just does not work, as soon as I equip top I loose the bottom.  Then if I try to do it in reverse order top first then bottom, nothing happens I have top on only.  One character works fine but every one I create wont work.

Probably the items are using the same slot ID. In this case, you cannot equip both at the same time.

 

One possibility is to use different body slot.

If you use SOS, equip the top part, then go to SOS MCM then set the armor as revealing.

I was so pumped when I read your reply I thought for sure that was it.  However it wasn't.  I figured it was because it seems like the problem did happen after installing sos but I'm wrong of course.   This doesn't seem like a solution I will find so I'm stuck with never making a character

The problem does seem like they are using same armor slot but why would that have changed?  Why did it work fine before and still does on one character?  How would I change my body slot?

This is definitely it just give yourself a schlong first. For some reason SOS doesn't set armor as revealing fi you don't have a schlong first.

If you have devious devices, be sure to check your "devices underneath" in the MCM. Sometimes DD decides some items should be hidden.

 

Conflicting slots seems to be the biggest possibility. What is the outfit in question?

cant help you without know everything you're equipping. Can you screenshot your inventory

[tampabrad]

ok I feel really stupid fornthis but how do I screen shot with a steam controller?  I've got 2 by accident but since ive tried button mashing to no avail!

[tampabrad]

I do believe your spot on with dd because my character that works fine with all clothes foe some reason dd is not in the mcm.   I opened up a different character and noticed it had some items that I don't have equipped, piercings, harness, etc.

It is slot 52. Taking all bets. Slot 52 is the absolute most popular slot for modders (pelvis extra I think it is called) after 32 (main body).  SOS uses 52 for equipable schlongs (like the unp addon for women) Briar Hearts use 52 (ever noticed how their schlong diappears when you take the briar heart) almost every panty in the game is slot 52, armors with skirts, dangly bits often get tagged with 32 and 52, favouredsoul made his earings slot 52 so they wouldn't conflict with other earrings (lol)  .. the list goes on.

 

To change the slot of an item is really easy. You need Tes5edit and Nifskope. In Tes5edit, open the mod, open the Armor entry pick a new slot. Then open the corrosponding Armor addon entry, give it the same new slot. In nifskope click on the offending bit in the picture. Go to its highlighted tri-shape in the the top left window. expand that and keep expanding until you see BSdismemberSkinInstance. Click that then look in the bottom window for partiions. expand that till you see Body Part. Double click on the value, in the drop down pick a new slot (has to be the same one you put in Tes5edit). Don't give it 52 Give it 58/59/60. They are not nearly as cool as 52.
