Revitalized Problem: CS NPCs not equipping armor I give them

Hi everyone,

 

CS novice back here again with an issue I thought I had solved. Basically, I'm making more custom NPCs, and equipping them with specific gear. Problem is, they only want to equip some of it. Mostly, it's armor that doesn't show up; they seem to do fine with clothing and weapons, but I haven't tried everything, obviously. So the question is: how do I get them to wear armor? I've tried unchecking "Auto-Calc Stats," because that fixed my problems for not being able to give NPCs spells, but that's not working here.

Maybe try increasing the relevant armor skill and/or decreasing unarmored? They'll equip whatever's best in terms of armor rating, including no armor if unarmored is high enough.

Just tried that. Didn't work, either. Still refuses to equip the armor.

Health of the armour isn't 0 is it?

I wouldn't think so. I'm just dragging and dropping right from the CS menu. I can double check when I get back to my PC, though, but I don't think the CS has armors defaulting to 0.

 

I do normally use a body mod and a mod that edits the armor meshes to better fit the bodies, which I haven't been loading in the CS. That wouldn't cause any issues, would it?

Better Bodies or an equivalent shouldn't stop an NPC from equipping vanilla models. As Necrolesian said, the only reason they shouldn't be equipping it is if their relevant skills aren't sufficient, or if it's health is 0.

 

Tried to force them to equip whatever pieces they're not equipping via scripting?

Hey, sorry for the late reply. I decided to go ahead and build the dungeon containing the NPCs and then place them in it. For most of my NPCs, they wear what I give them, no problem. However, whenever I try and create certain NPCs, it doesn't work. I'm having trouble getting a female Orc Barbarian to wear her stuff, and I'm having trouble getting a male Dunmer custom class to wear his stuff. I'm not sure why this is going on at all. I'll try the script, I guess.
