Making armors that change facial expressions

[Lyremanbird]

I'm trying to create a facemask that changes the facial expression of the wearer without replacing the wearer's face model. Could this be done using the face's .tri files? Or somehow using papyrus scripts?

You can use the same face animation archetypes that you can set in a dialogue line through papyrus by calling the following function on the actor and passing the keyword of the desired archetype as parameter: https://www.creationkit.com/fallout4/index.php?title=ChangeAnimFaceArchetype_-_Actor

you can also use the console to control the face morphs. ) mfg morphs X Y where X is the morph number, Y is the magnitude of the change (1-100). For example mfg morphs 40 20 - smirk on the right side of the face. All morph numbers:
