Armour Stands

Post » Tue May 17, 2011 3:33 pm

Still sounds awesome I'd love to display my most prized suits of armor or favorite cloths (Vault Suits) and mannequins would be the perfect way to do that. :)

While I hope to see House Themes make a return I hope we get the option to modify our homes the way we want as well, beyond the regular way of grabbing a bunch of things and placing them around and making sure they stay put.

You have to dress up a mannequin.
To put pants on a mannequin, you have to remove the base, put the pants on, replace the base.
To put a jacket/shirt on a mannequin, you have to straighten out the arms, put the clothing on, then re-pose the arms.

An armor stand that's basically a T , you just draqe things over.
Realistically speaking, but this is a game. All we have to do is walk up to the mannequin, activate it, and select which armor/clothing to put on the mannequin to place it on.

That's how it was done in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion's Knight of The Nine expansion. After the player got all of the pieces of the Crusader armor, they could walk up to the armor stand, activate it, and take or place certain parts of the armor (and it's weapons) on the stand.

That's what I am saying.
The weapon racks in Oblivion make excellent gun racks, and all of those static armor stands (the T-shaped stands with a "head" ) you see in Oblivion, they have one in Knights of the Nine which is an activator, so you can use it for the Crusader's armor.

That's what I have in my "playground" mod.

Armour stands sound kinda silly since unless you got a lot of room in your shack or whatever those things will take up space. Gun racks though are something I would really like to see, wall mounted for example.


im sure your new vegas suite is gonna have more than enough room

that would be sick for the mannequins or how ever you spell it and like you can move the arms or something, plus you can place a gun or a weapon in a hand then you could place it so its like pointing the gun at you or something like that

I'd rather have a weapon rack than an armor stand, because those FOOK:NV weapons would look pretty, racked up in my house :D

Thats not a half bad idea to perfectly honest. I wouldnt mind having a suit of combat armor or T-51b using the same script or whatever the Winterized suit from Operation Anchorage used.

It would work if the mannequin was scripted like a companion NPC. You could put things in its inventory and equip them. It would just be an NPC that couldn't talk or move. Seems like a pretty simple solution to me.

That's what your "Bruma Statue" was in Oblivion. If you mess with the console it'll move around and such.

So it could work, technically, but it'd be weird to explain for semi-reality's sake.

I like the idea, but make sure the mannequins can hold weapons. I want to display weapons and armor at the same time.

If not a dress-able mannequin or gun racks, at least give us something where it would look like you would store those items, like a gun case, or locker, and a dresser or closet for clothes and armor. When I collected all this stuff on Fallout 3, I thought it was a bit silly to store my guns in a desk drawer and my clothes in a locker, I liked to keep things separated so I knew what I was looking for. Maybe a toy chest for miscellaneous items. Keep the fridge for food, have like a medicine cabinet for stim-paks and RadX and all those medicines, maybe a bookshelf for all the recordings, blah blah...I could go on and on, but all that stuff in my inventory I somehow wished I could take out and place in a place that looked suitable for placement, not a filing cabinet for ammo hahah
