📋 About This Mod
Hey everyone! This mod was made the week the game came out back in 2015 and is VERY OLD. It doesn't have any problems but there will be no new features going forward, especially because mods such as the amazing Armorsmith Extended handle glove crafting and much, much more. I would install that instead if you want anything more than basic gloves! Thank you!
DESCRIPTION
Gloves of the Commonwealth adds 16 pairs of equippable gloves from the various outfits in the game, letting you wear gloves with any non-gloved armor, such as the Vault Suit. I wanted to wear some gloves with my Road Leathers, and decided to add the rest of the gloves.
Unfortunately this will not currently work with outfits that have attached gloves. Equipping the gloves while wearing one of those outfits (such as Field Scribe) will make you naked (with gloves on!) I looked into removing the gloves from those outfits, and was successful in doing so, but they had large gaps at the wrist because the mesh would need to be updated to show more of the bare arm, which cannot be done yet with current tools.
Please keep in mind this is a very simple method to just make existing gloves 'appear', and as such clipping and gaps with certain combos is possible, as the gloves were originally modeled for their specific outfits. I have no control over the models themselves until tools become available to do so.
Future versions will include all outfits once the tools are available to make that possible. Inclusion into vendor leveled lists etc. is also planned.
Included are Athletic Gloves, Brotherhood of Steel Gloves, Cait's Gloves, Institute Worker Gloves, Kellog's Gloves, Minutemen Gloves, Raider Gloves, Raider Gloves II, Desmonda's Gloves, Grognak's Gloves, Resident Gloves, Wastelander Gloves, Railroad Gloves, Silver Shroud Gloves, Utility Gloves.
