First off: if this should be in the mods section, plesae move it there. I consider it to be Creation Kit related.

Alright, so I created a mod which allows you to change the skin texture your character uses by equipping an item. ( Mod 32080 on nexusmods or just search for "Equippable Skin Textures and Tattoos". Not allowed to post links. No screenshots for same reason )
To make this possible I created an item using an unused armor slot (48), and it equips an Armor Addon that is an exact copy of the NakedSkin ArmorAddon, except for pointing to a different texture set in the "Skin Texture" and "Skin Texture Swap List" Options of an ArmorAddon, additionally using body slot 48 and having a priority of 1 so it overwrites the original skin. So far, so good, I even got it to work ingame. And the changed texture is taken over by other armors aswell.

However, whenever I save the game and then load it again, it suddenly stops displaying my armor and shows me naked instead. The changed Skin Texture is still applied. Both Items are equipped according to inventory. If I save and load once more, it works fine again. Not having the items equipped when saving still gives me this bug.

My conclusion was that something was wrong with the priority and the Armor is not shown due to being overriden, but Armor has a priority of 5 and my Item has one of 1. So that should not be the problem either. (Tested with 0, same results).

Can you guys help me on this one?

Thanks!
