I'm wondering if there's a way to use GetModelPath() for armors to get the in-game model instead of the world model. I know that the weapon GetModelPath() returns the in-game model so I'm wondering why the armor one is different. Also if the function doesn't exist is there any where I can go to suggest it to the SKSE members?

Check out the http://www.creationkit.com/Category:Papyrus. They're SKSE functions.

Oops. Didn't get that the existing functions only return the world model.
