📋 About This Mod
Jawbone's Immersive Armor "Fixes" v1. 0
by Jawbone78
Description
This mod contains two esps to make using Immersive Armors a little more immersive, in my opinion.
The first simply disables all distribution options by default for IA armors and shields. This is mainly useful for when you're starting a new game and you only want the IA armors to be craftable, or you want to control distribution right from the get-go. This only affects the starting settings for the mod menu, so you can still enable whatever you want whenever you want. Immersive Armors starts out with almost everything enabled; I simply prefer to keep most of the options for myself and my followers.
The second prevents Ralof and Hadvar from ever getting their IA armors, since neither one should have them. They are not high-ranking officers; they should have gear to match their station.
Use one or the other or both, depending on what you want.
Disclaimer
This mod is provided as-is; I don't expect to have to make any updates to it, nor do I expect anyone to need any updates. Use at your own risk (for what it's worth, it's two teeny tiny esps that really pose no risk to anything, anywhere).
Installation
Install with your mod manager of choice, or else copy the mod(s) you want into your Data folder.
Uninstallation
Uninstall with your mod manager of choice, or else remove the mod(s) you added during installation.
Permissions
Do what you want with it; I don't really care.
Thanks
Thank you to Hothtrooper and Ecks and everyone else who contributed to Immersive Armors. I love the mod; I just disagreed with two little parts of its implementation :).

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-tested with 324 endorsements and over 5,000 downloads.
- Saves you from manually unchecking dozens of armor options in the MCM.
- Perfect for players who want to hand-pick which armors appear in their game.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2018, so it may not be compatible with newer versions of Immersive Armors or Skyrim SE.
- The second tweak is vague—no details on what it actually restores, so you're flying blind.
- Only useful if you use Immersive Armors; otherwise, it's dead weight.
For Skyrim players who use Immersive Armors and want to disable the default armor distribution without fiddling with the MCM. Also for those who want to start a new game with a clean slate and add armors selectively. Skip if you're happy with the default distribution or don't use Immersive Armors.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Install this mod before starting a new game to avoid conflicts with existing saves.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to keep track of this patch alongside Immersive Armors.
- After installing, check the Immersive Armors MCM to confirm that all armor distribution options are unchecked.
