Hiding Amulet/Circlet Breaks Weigh Adjustment?

[2ndFifer]

Question to see if anyone else has encountered this. In the CK, I've recently attempted to reskin something and make the newly skinned armor set a unique item. I have no trouble doing this.

 

However, for said armor said, I want it to "hide" the amulet you're wearing - as to avoid the TERRIBLE clipping of an amulet magically coming out of your breastpiece. Additionally, for the helmet I would like it to obviously not be compatible with circlets.

 

That being said, whenever I "Hide" an amulet (by highlighting it in the armor addon section of the item, same window as choosing 'wearable' meshes) - the piece of armor in-game loses the ability to scale with the weight slider. Yes, I have both the _0 and _1 meshes placed appropriately for both genders (though you can only select one, I select the _1 mesh in the armor addon section). Unselecting the amulet from the armor addon section fixes this immediately, but then the amulet shows. I cannot select "amulet" in the first item properties window, because to my knowledge this would prevent me from wearing am amulet at all rather than simply hiding it.

 

Additionally, I've encountered an odd problem with the helmet. When I made it, I duplicated a circlet and changed all the mesh files/properties. For this, it's perfectly fine to select "circlets" in the first properties window (rather than in armor addons) because I don't want them to wear a circlet and a helmet at the same time anyway. HOWEVER, the "alternative" version of said helmet - applicable to Khajiit and Argonians (and having only their races selected for that model set appropriately), whenever they put on the helmet...they get the helmet. And a circlet. I don't even know where the circlet information is coming from, as ALL previous models/armor addon categories were deleted, there's not an ounce of circlet information left in the object properties in the CK. This only applies to the Khajiit and Argonian, the human/elf version of the helmet is fine. It is also worth noting that choosing "circlet" in the armor addons window, to simply hide the circlet but allow one to also be equipped - doing so also ruins the ability to scale the hood to the characters weight, same as doing it with an amulet did for the torso.

 

TL;DR:

 

My experiences tell me that you cannot hide an amulet or circlet in the armor addon area of a wearable item's properties window without losing the item's ability to scale to character weight. Unchecking these options fixes this instantly.

 

A helmet is inexplicably pulling circlet information when there exists not a circlet model at all in the item properties window, only for Khajiit/Argonian races. Even when equipping a circlet is prohibited by item properties, and indeed, equipping a circlet in-game unequips both the helmet/circlet combo.

 

Anyone else had similar experiences or can confirm either of these things as bugs?
