Nuka world slave vendors randomly became naked?

[dr gangnam style]

Not sure how this happened, but i just came by to Nukatown USA to restock on 7.62's. I talk to Aaron, and boom!
His clothes gone.

Happended to me too. All the vendors are down to their undies.

It is a known bug.

It's a bug that occurs when you 'free' the slaves. You see, they're supposed to just take off their slave collars, but the bug causes them to get stripped of everything instead. For some mystifying reason, Bethesda has done absolutely nothing to fix it.

Maybe for the lolz.

well that quest isnt the cannon choice anyway so I kinda see why not much bug testing went into that choice.

It also occurs to mobs when they try to equip certain armor items.

I think they were supposed to also change from their slave clothes into normal clothes possibly the "certain armor items" Bored Peon mentioned.

Yeah you can see it all the time on the caravan guards. They will equip a piece of armor that is incompatible with the underarmor clothing.

The developers never really put any thought into NOT allowing NPCs to come up with those certain combinations to cause that conflict and make them walk around in their underwear.

Based on what I've seen by messing around with NPC equipment via the console, I 100% would not be surprised if that was also the case.

Yeah, seriously. To be honest, a lot of the clothing and armor combination restrictions feel like a case of 'too lazy to fix clipping issues'.

Honestly my biggest annoyance with this game is not being able to wear different shirts/pants/shoes et al.

Seriously, did the ghouls go around sewing shirts and pants together for 200 years? Is that what drove them Feral? That's why they went feral isn't it?

I'd always thought naked guards were because of looting their corpse? Then they respawn naked.

If you use the showinventory command on them you will see they still have the clothes.

In fact when I used the console to equip the clothes that command showed they had it removed the nearly invisible leather armor part it showed they were wearing.
