Left hand bug
I don't know if this is intentional or not, but no matter which armour I wear the left hand of my character is always a black fingerless glove. Is this a bug or not?

Vanilla, the game always equips the pipboy and the pipboy glove (fingerless black glove with some tech bits) on your left arm at all times. It doesn't matter what armor you have, since the glove takes priority.

It's a carryover from fallout 3, where Bethesda felt that pipboys should somehow have the magical inability to ever be parted from their owners without the owner dying in the process. I think they stuck that stupid idea into like one dungeon and the tutorial, then it's never mentioned again.

Billions of mods are available that remove the glove portion, and force the pipboy itself to go on the outside of armors. Makes all the difference, look wise, on power armor, primarily.

Can you mention one of the mods that remove it?

Pipboy readius works, but I think you already fixed it.

If you want to combine the glove remover with power armor, I recommend that you also get a mod that installs better power armor gloves. I use a converted fallout 3 PA glove replacer, personally, but there's tons of alternatives out there.
