[LE] Problem with hats on leveled lists

[Merscil]

Ok, so I've been working on my own version of Zab's Witch Hat (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=11301), a Steam exclusive mod. I basically made an HD retexture of the mod to go together nicely with the Rustic Clothing mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/69784/?)

To give you an idea of what it looks like, here is a screenshot:

 

Now I also renamed the hats, made college robes varients and altered the properties of the magical hats to make them a bit more reasonable. But the problem I'm having is with the leveled lists part of the mod, hence the topic title.

I used the same leveled lists edits as the original mod, which puts the hats in the leveled lists for warlocks and necromancers. It works fine, but a problem occurs when the mages are using the hooded version of their robes. The game can't equip both hooded robes and a piece of headgear together so it overwrites the vanilla item with the item from the mod. This means that when those two items spawn together, the npc wearing them will basically be naked (except for the hat and boots). I was wondering if there is a way to make sure the hats only spawn in combination with the non-hooded robes or at least make sure that if they do spawn together, it is the robes that will be equiped and not the hats.

If it is not possible than really it doesn't matter all that much, after all it was an issue with the original mod as well, but I still would like to fix it.

It's possible, but you need to edit the leveled lists pretty extensively. Basically, you need a leveled list that consists of two entries, of which it will only pick one: a hooded leveled list and an unhooded leveled list. The hooded one would be all the hooded robes, set up in the same levels as the original lists; the unhooded one would be all the unhooded robes, again set up the same, plus your hat. Then, you put that first leveled list, the one with just two entries, into the warlock outfit in place of the current robe chooser.

Alright, I'll look into it. Thanks!
