PA frame armor switch

I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but when you get in a frame without one of the specifically allowed underarmors (vault suit, fatigues, BOS uni etc) it replaces your current armor with some leather suit. Completely threw me when I first noticed. I was wearing the harness and combat armor and as soon as the animation finished my character was suddenly wearing this leather thing. Is it possible to change this yet or is this, like I suspect, because once the animation is done it swaps you with another model?

Not really possible from what I can tell. Even the vault suit stuff is just a material change on the same model, you can see this more clearly by stepping into the frame without any armor and switching between suits. The internal body stuff is part of the frame, which is used in its entirety to override any worn equipment. We'll know more when we have a GECK and some working model tools to look at the assets, but it feels like it's all a single body element.

Drat I was really hoping it wasn't something like that. I know the creation engine is fairly limited in some respects, but I was hoping they had just anchored the regular player model to the PA frame instead of replacing the whole thing with another model. I mean they got working elevators in, so they clearly can anchor one moving object to another!

Tried using a PA suit while wearing the road leathers (think that's the name) - the shoulders clipped through the power armour as I was sprinting during a battle, so I'm not sure it's all a single replacement model once you've gotten into the armour.

 

Or maybe it is, and it's just that they've copied the entire outfit mesh into the frame, would still clip then I believe.
