LE Ideas: Male/Female armor/Weapon separation upon death

[Daedrakin]

Hello Dovahkin community!

I have a little immersion, nitpick mod idea. It has always boggled my mind as to how my giant Bulk of a male Nord tank can easily slip into a petite nord females armor, be it light or heavy. And the fact that the..ahem.."armor breast" suddenly disappear. Or how my small, lean Khajit female manages to magically transform a hulking iron armor into something more her size.

 

So I thought, why doesn't someone, anyone!, make a mod that, when a bandit is spawned the game automatically links the specified gender to the armor model of said gender. So when the player loots it upon death, he gets the version of the gender he killed. Another idea for this is to have a more immersive and astetic look to the game. Maybe make it so a nord can fit into another female nords armor BUT have certain debuffs like less damage given from the cramped space. Plus it would be fun to have a male char, equip a female armor variant, enter 3rd person and, suddenly, our char has armor bewbs. Could make for some funny scenery. If anyone is willing, I'm open to talk about this more in depth.

 

On to the other mod! Another thing I've always wondered is, how the hell can I loot a bandit who fell over a ledge by clicking his weapon that fell to my feet? I was wondering if this type of mod existed and if not, at least to inspire someone to make it.

 

Thanks to all who took the time to read.

Originally, Skyrim didn't let you do that. The weapons were separate from the dead body. However, this caused save bloat from all the weapons left lying around, which in turn eventually caused crashes. So, there was a bugfix that tied the weapons to the corpses' inventories.
