As said in the description: COMPATIBILITY This mod was made for vanilla armors, that means it will not work with custom armor mods and will obviously not work if used alongside another 'No Helmet' mod.
Is there something i should do to activate this mod? I have installed via Vortex it is enabled and 100% not working. I choose to hide Helmets only btw not sure if that is an issue but i have tried a couple helmets and always still show. Just noticed that the guards in the city i am in have no helmets showing. So its just me it aint working for
I'm checking this now and may be back to let you know, but it's possible the game isn't loading it due to it using an older version of the FormID Header or whatever. Open each bit in the creation kit as active file, save it, and repeat for each one; That SHOULD(?) fix it
what if i dont use creation kit? i have over 600 mods and vie seen a few say they aren't compatible with the creation kit. would using it affect those mods if im only trying to fix this one?
Not sure why every hide helmet mod hides the helmets of ALL npcs. 99% of the time someone isnt going to be downloading a hide helmet mod because they have a vendetta against the concept of helmets and their very existence within our universe, its because they wanna see their characters face. Removing EVERYONES helmet is just jank and immersion breaking, I promise almost no one wants every helmet to be invisible, just their characters, it would be really cool to see an update that makes that a possibility.
Simple fix a) don't use this mod, instead use a mod that stops the need for headgear for getting perks, then use an invisible head piece - I have about 10 in my mod list - typically use a head piece tagged for use with opposite sex characters. Not quite as simple fix b) This mod actually affects individually listed head pieces, and uses about 5 esp's, one each for hats, hoods, helmets, masks and I forget what else. Only install the one you want, then use SSEEdit to remove all the ones you don't want invisible. All of that one eg Iron Helmet will be invisible, but nothing else. btw, while you are in SSEEdit, flag the esp(s) as esl's, they work fine that way. btw part 2 - this mod has not been touched since 2016, so don't expect the author to change it now.
Yeah, I guess I'm part of the "almost no one". We have our vendetta meetings on alt Thursdays at the corner coffee shop -- the one with the green awning and the chalkboard out front.
Deadly Wenches makes all hold guards female, so I really enjoy their helmets being invisible. I use various beautification mods for NPCs of all kinds. My myriad followers also get to have free head-space. My only trouble is trying to figure out why a few mage hoods keep showing up on College members and priestesses, hiding their pretty faces.
So after searching for a long time for a solution to only hiding the head piece for the player I finally found a solution using two mods here on Nexus:
First install Aleru's invisible armors. This just adds several sets of basic armor that happen to be invisible.
Second install Skyrim Outfit System SE Revised, set up a new outfit through the MCM and only add a headslot (use filter 'invis' to find one of the above armor pieces), and make sure to check 'Unassigned Slot Passthrough' at the bottom, otherwise you will be naked.
Anyhow, this works for me perfectly and after a long search is by far the simplest way to mod a no visible headgear for only the player into the game.
Looks like I've joined the crowed as well. I too have deleted this mod due to it not working the way I want.
I too am looking for a mod that will just hide MY helm and keep the stats (no matter what I'm wearing). I have a pretty face, pretty hair, and spent a lot of time creating such. I want to ALWAYS see my creation. Is that so much to ask for?
Of course this has to be a difficult task due to the fact that 'TO THIS DAY, IT STILL DOES NOT EXIST'... :( BUT, I still appreciate all the modders trying. Thanks everyone!
I totally feel you dude. I vividly remember having a mod where it worked that way, actually- it was very simple. You'd just press H to show and hide your headgear. It's not like I always wanted to hide it without being able to ever turn it back on. I'm genuinely not sure why i'm having so much trouble finding that mod on here again. Edit: it was "helmet toggle" for the Skyrim base game. I guess no one ever took something so simple to SE.

This mod was made for vanilla armors, that means it will not work with custom
armor mods and will obviously not work if used alongside another 'No Helmet' mod.
not even sure how the creation kit works tbh

Still looking for a helmet hider in this game
