Mod request - Armor Dummy

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.morrowind (More info?)

I'm not sure if this exists already, but I think it would be cool to have
armor dummies which you could put in your home to display your various suits
of armor. I don't think it would be that hard to implement, just use the
same code that Companion plugins use, only stripped down, so they don't
follow you around or fight or anything. "Talk" to them to view their
inventory, place your full Ebony or Daedric suit in the box, and they will
automatically wear it. And of course, you could always take it back when
you wanted it. How complicated would something like this be?

Or is it already possible? I was thinking of buying all the slaves I could
find and just telling them to wait around in my home with my armor, but the
trouble is that most slaves seem to be Khajit or Argonian, so they can't
wear boots and helmets...

There are already mods out there to do that and Suran Underworld
includes some when you get various abodes as rewards.

There are quite a few "armour mannequin" mods about which do exactly
this, and the result is rather nice. They're often included in house
mods as well.
