Fast Equipping

Description:

When I play Oblivion I like to RP my characters a bit, and this includes taking their armor off when they are just walking around town or switching out of the heavy suit when I want to sneak up on something or not wearing the full suit of iron armor when i went for a swim. But having different sets of armor and switching between them is not easy to do quickly.....so I made this mod.

The main gist of this mod is that you can assign an set of equipped items to a single clutter item, so that when you equip that clutter item all the items you assigned to it will be equipped. It has many options on how it will equip. Along with storing your currently equipped items into a slot, you also set the name of the set which is used on the inventory item and in menus. There are three choices on how to equip the items:
-Replace (only the items in this set are left equipped)
-Equip (Will equip the entire set, unequiping anything that uses the same slots)
-Add to (will only equip objects into empty slots)

Lastly you can choose whether to assign your current spell into the set, so that when these items are equipped, so is the spell.


Now this is good, you have a way to change between items fairly quickly....but what if I could let scripts do it for me? I came up with these auto-equipping options, which are 'In Combat', 'When Sneaking' and 'In Town'.

And that's about it....I'm looking for more idea that could be put in....such as more auto-equipping options or something.

Progress
This mod is nearly complete, I have to add in some more instructions in the menus, but that's about it. This topic is purely to get some last minute opinions and adjust the mod to other people's tastes.

This will come in very handy when it's released

Though mostly I'll be using it for reassurance. Oblivion has a habit of unequipping certain rings and amulets from my player for some reason, so I'll constantly be hitting the main outfit hotkey. I have OCD for this kind of thing...

This could be useful for those who like a lot of different setups,like assassins.

Can the set you're assigning to a clutter item consist of nothing? It's convenient to be able to strip quickly in order to check if your char has some damaged attributes. I used Quick Wardrobe for this before - and have been meaning to check out how Super Hotkeys handles it, but haven't gotten around to it. Anyway, I find it quite useful to be able to quickly equip/"unequip" whole sets, so looking forward to this.

Yes. simply take everything off then it will store 0 in all the items. Set the equip type to 'replace' and then when you equip that clutter it will unequip everything.

I gave this plenty of options, personally i havent found a use for 'add to' equipping yet, but Im betting soemone can so i put it in. Its hard to show, but this mod is very flexable in waht you can do with it.

Haha, awesome! Two Worlds 2 has this exact thing in it when it launches in October. Also, add an option to disable any graphical effects when changing sets.
