Please Fix The Broken Overboss PA Headlamp

EDIT: It's fixed. Mod posted below, courtesy of Trold.

 

So I made a post about this in the tech support forum to confirm I wasn't the only one seeing this issue (to my knowledge, I'm not), and also scoured the Nexus to see if someone had already uploaded a mod to fix it. There exists no fix for this particular bug, and all of the existing power armor headlamp mods don't "fix" anything per se; for that matter, none of them have been updated for Nuka World.

As you can see in the screenshot, the light node for the Overboss power armor headlamp is anchored in the wrong spot inside the model. The flashlight also doesn't "glow" as you would expect a lit light source to glow. Worse still, it doesn't move with the powered armor; when you crouch with the headlamp on, the light node maintains its height above the ground and basically floats above your head like the Skyrim Candlelight spell.

 

The standard raider PA does not behave this way, nor do any other PA headlamps. I presume it's a bug that came with the Nuka World .esm file.

I am a lowly plebeian with very little modding expertise, and no experience whatsoever messing with 3D models. I know it seems trivial to create a separate mod just to fix one PA helmet, but I do actually like the Overboss armor. I make due with the standard PA helmet for now to keep up immersion, but it would be aces if someone could upload a fix.

 

Thanks.

I've just finished a fix for this. I'll just need to sort out a description and pics.

Not a perfect solution, since the helmet wasn't really set up for headlamps by Bethesda.

So I've set it up similarly to the normal raider PA helmet.

Fixed a few minor issues with mesh as well.
