Introduction

By default, the Quiver is only visible when it's equipped. But what if you wanted to display it regardless of that condition?
In the next steps, I'll show you how.

What do you need:

- Immersive Equipment Displays and its requirements.

How to use IED (for the purpose of this tutorial)

First, go to "View>Display Manager", then to "Custom items" section and select where to apply (Global, Actors, etc...):



Create a new display for the Quiver:


Expand the new item and toggle "Last equipped":


Click on the arrows next to "Conditions" and add a new one for "Type>Ammo":


Click on "Ammo", and only check "This":


Now, select the "Biped slot" for the "Quiver" and uncheck everything under it:



Check the options "Equipment mode" and "Disable if equipped". This will disable the custom display when the quiver is equipped, so it can be managed via "Gear positioning".


Finally, select the same node as in "Gear positioning" for the quiver.


FINAL RESULT:


But what about Bolts?

By default, they'll use the same node as the arrows. If you have separated the arrows from bolts, in the current version (1.6.3) there's no automatic way to distinguish bolts from arrows. Some "Is bolt" conditions are not available. But you can try to condition the display to separate bolt from arrows by manually assigning the bolts with the "Form" condition.

    Sorry to leave a comment, but I've followed your instructions to the letter like three times now and I still can't get it to work.

    It shows up as it should with the quiver equipped, but unequipping it (with it favorited) doesn't display the quiver.

    I don't have any other settings or overrides active, and I'm fairly certain I don't have any mods affecting the quiver. Unless Archery Gameplay Overhaul has an effect on it, I'm scratching my head here.

    Any insight or help would be appreciated.

    This guide worked great. Only problem is that I am unable to move the quiver when I have it equipped. It doesn’t seem to be registered. Next to Config class: Actor it is blank to the left and does not have a quiver registered. I have enabled all nodes, still no luck. 

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

      Works fine for me in latest IED version. Do you have another mod that could change the quiver? Or maybe you have an override configured for the quiver already.

    Idk I did exactly what you said with the updated comments but when I unequip arrows custom display doesn't seem to load (in this case when I equip crossbow too because it equips bolts). this doesn't work anymore?

      Hi, I remade the tutorial according to the last version available on Nexus.
      You'll have to recreate the config too.

      I'll might update this tutorial when a new version of IED is uploaded here.

      Hi, what IED version are you using?
      The newest version changed the location (and name) of the menu entry.

      Older versions used "Gear positioning".

      It seems the option for "is bolt" was changed as well. Do you know where it went?

      Yeah, oversight on my part.
      The latest version of IED on Nexus doesn't have that option in "Presence".
      In the arrow display, use this condition instead of the condition "Presence" with "Is Bolt":
      Spoiler:  
      Show

      ?


      For the Bolt Quiver display, do the same but without toggling the checkbox on the left.
      When the latest version of IED is released on Nexus, you can use this article again.
