How do I get Draugr to use different shields?

Post » Thu Jun 13, 2013 4:31 pm

Asked this in the quick questions thread, but it's been untouched for a few days and this is kinda getting me hung up, so please forgive me. I gave Draugr Banded Iron and Nordic Shields, but they don't wear them! I thought they flat out didn't equip them, but upon further inspection of the corpse, the shields were equipped... they just weren't showing up on the Draugr, and the Draugr couldn't use them. To be specific, I added the shields to the leveled lists used to give them regular Iron Shields.

I understand Draugr use different animations, but you'd think if they could use an Iron Shield, other shields wouldn't be a problem. I've certainly got no issues giving them all sorts of different weapons. Thoughts?

It's due to the armoraddon for those shields. Most shields are only selected to apply for the normal races, while the skeleton and draugr races can only use the stormcloak style and iron shields (and maybe a few more).

So, if I use the Iron Shield as a reference, I can add the right information to the ArmorAddon for the Banded Iron and Nordic (and whatever other shields I please?) and everything will be gravy?

Thanks a ton!
