[LE] Mannequins sometimes not wearing gear?

[JohnnyQuest101]

On one of the three homes I made, I noticed sometimes the mannequins are not showing the armor given to them. If I remove the armor in game, and give it to them, it seems to reset things, and they are wearing it agains.

 

The Mannequins are set-up without armor in the creation kit. In game they take the armor and display the armor. In one of three homes, the armor does display but sometimes it disappears. If the player removes the armor, and gives it back to the mannequin, it resets itself, and displays the armor. I'm not sure why this is happening.

 

Is this a standard bug of the mannequins or is there something I can do to stop this?

This is a standard bug within the CK. If you have never opened up the Creation Kit, something you do not see are the invisible markers that tell physical objects to do things. One of these invisible markers for mannequins is called an "X Marker Heading." It is a red box inside the kit and tells the person, or mannequin, which way to face. All objects inside the CK have a 3D data info tab and if the mannequin is placed at Rotation 0.0000 on its XYZ axis, it can cause issues. I know Tarshana made a mod that fixes this for SE but I'm not sure if that same mod will work for Oldrim. You could try, but if it doesn't solve your problems, you could try this instead. Good luck. It should also fix your problems with clothes not correctly appearing on the mannequins, for I believe the issues are connected. I myself have experienced this.
