Helmet Toggle - IED preset and animations

Read the Room provides a more complete helmet management and animation experience, you should check that mod out, but if you use Equipment Toggle 2 or Dynamic Armor Variants (DAV for short) to hide equipped helmets/hoods, you might be interested in this.

Equipment Toggle is a very cool mod that allows you to hide or show equipments with conditions, such as In combat, dialogue, at home or on weapon drawn, while still having the items equipped. DAV is also a cool mod that allows you to change armors on the fly, including hiding helmets and hoods.

This mod will bring a little immersion using Immersive Equipment Displays (IED for short) to display hidden helmets on the waist of your characters and if you have Immersive Equipping Animations (IEA for short) installed, equipping and unequipping animations will be played too.

How does this work.

This comes with pre-configured json files to hide/unhide equipped helmets or hoods, some IED presets to show/hide the helmets and an esp(flagged as esl) file to toggle animations based on the conditions by Equipment Toggle.

This mod won't equip/unequip the helmet, the preset and animations will only play based on the conditions from Equipment Toggle, which will hide/unhide your helmets/hoods.

The conditions used are:

-duringDialogue

-duringCombat

-onWeaponDraw

Or the conditions from DAV, which will be the same above except for onWeaponDraw, although the config structure is a bit different, the funcionality is essentialy the same.

If you already use a config for Equipment Toggle or DAV, you should merge the changes from this mod, otherwise you can let this mod overwrite the file.

The config from this mod will only manage hoods and helmets, circlets will be ignored. The presets will only consider helmets(ArmorHelmet keyword). The animations will play for both hoods and helmets.
