Are there any mods to craft mannequins and weapon racks?
I found mannequin maker but it is not for the SE version. I am using Lonewolf's Manor as my player home. There are quite a few mannequins and weapon racks but not enough and there is a ton of empty space in the treasure room. In my first play through of Skyrim I think I used Jaxon's Positioner to duplicate and place them but I can't really remember. I am also not opposed to using the console to spawn them as long as I can place them where I want. Any ideas?

Using Jaxonz Positioner - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/13090 you can copy an item and then place the copy wherever you want. I've never used that function for mannequins or weapon racks, but don't see why not.

Thanks. That's probably the best way to try it.

I tried to copy a weapon rack with Jaxon's Positioner and it said only simple objects can be copied. It also requires SkyUI. Not sure why. I tried SkyUI in the original game and didn't like it. I am really surprised there are no mods for this.

weapon racks/plaques tend to be a bit buggy (weapons falling/disappearing) - so most players just avoid them entirely.

I had 900 hrs in my first play through and never had a problem.

I wouldn't use Jaxonz Positioner for this as it probably will not copy any additional required objects such as triggers and activators. Open the interior in the Creation Kit and select a mannequin and the related ActivateMannequinTrig and XMarkerHeading. Press Ctrl-D and drag the copy to it new place. In another location, press Ctrl-C, open the other location, select the spot where you want the mannequin and press Ctrl-V. This works the same for weapon plaques and racks.

I don't have any experience with the creation kit. I read your link and it was literally like reading greek. One of the mods had the ability to move the triggers and activators. I think it was Decorator Helper but it doesn't allow you to copy the item, only move it.

Jaxonz will copy any associated activators (have used it for chairs, beds, and hearthfire oven with no issues). Though, there is always a chance that for a given particular item it may not.

Edit - I got it confused with Jaxonz Furnishings

Ask the author of Decorator Helper. If their mod can move the mannequin including all requirments, they may know of a way to copy and paste it.

I read through all the posts and the author replied to somebody else and said mannequins and weapon racks couldn't be copied.

It says only simple items can be copied when I press the copy button.

I THINK (meaning I don't know for sure) the major issue with Manaquins and Plaques is they are configured for a certain spot. Their Displaying x, y, and z paramaters are set. So moving them, doesn't move their positioning thingies. (Also Bookshelves use the same system).

I tried Dibella's Positioner my last playthrough. It didn't really make things easier so I am going back to just using Console an "Moveto Player". Its not easy but I am used to it and knowing where to look to "Level out" the item I am moving.

Edit: Bookshelves as well

The main problem is that Jaxonz is not capable of including external statics, activators, including scripts, when those are not part of the static, furniture or whatever object. It's possible for certain furnitures (chairs, benches, ovens, etc.) as those have activators and scripts included, where mannequins, weapon plaques and weapon racks don't.

Edit - ! got it confused with Jaxonz Furnishings - some things with activators attached will, as Albert indicated, work with the copy - but yes, more complex things will not.

If I remember correctly, when I played original Skyrim, I used Jaxonz to copy the wall behind the weapon rack (the one with 4 weapon holders) and moved it next to the existing one. Then I copied each of the 4 weapon racks and moved them in front of the wall. It was not functional as in being able to place/remove weapons like in a functional rack but I was able to place the individual weapons with Jaxonz and then lock them in place.

I don't remember what I did for mannequins. I think I found a way to place them with the console but they moved around which is a known bug. I ended up deleting them.
