[Solved] Pickpocketing Clothes off of Living People - Problem
So my pickpocketing is level 100 with all the perks and I notice I can pickpocket peoples clothes off as long as I'm not detected. So what I'm wondering is if there is a way for those people to put on clothes themselves after I've stolen it.

I tried pickpocketing the clothes back into the npc's inventory but they still stay naked. Will the clothes eventually come back like most things after 48 hours or will they stay naked always?

Its kinda weird, seeing guards in whiterun with nothing but a helmet on...

Enjoy your new found ninja powers and go to some bandit caves/hide outs. You're now of a sufficient skill to pick pocket bandits of their weapons while sneaking around their hideouts. ;o) They can't chop you up if you've stolen their weapons!

From my own test just now - I waited a full week in Skyrim - the armour never came back, so now there are naked Riften guards everywhere in my autosave :riften:

Hi! Hmm. Well, you can always role-play it as if they are Nudists then. According to the science book, "The Nudist Society", in Real Life, security personal located at Nudist places, are also Nude, save for the gear that makes them an SC. One of the books scientist authors even commented on how strange it was, to see a nude male deputy sheriff, gunbelt, badge, and all, leap over a fence to chase a voyeur with a camera! He could only imagine how the teeanger with the camera must have felt, seeing a big tough guy, armed but sans clothing, charging at him while ordering him to stop! (Since this took place before they changed the Law concerning pursuit of unarmed suspects, the guy could've been shot for failure to comply too!)

Haha, well crap, I have the UFO mod - Ulitmate Followers Overhaul, and I wanted all my followers to have whiterun guard armor so I could easily pick them out in a battle. There are a few naked guards in whiterun now.

I notice that with the UFO mod, I can talk to the guards and say that they are naked, it fades to black then they appear with just white clothing on instead of armor.

Is there a place that I could find whiterun armor? Is there like a whiterun armory?

Each time you see one of the naked guards, hit the ~ key to bring up the console. Click on the guard so that his ID# shows in at the top of the console.. Type in "resetinventory". Hit the key again to close the console. Without the quotes.

Theres this weird glitch where I can no longer pickpocket that guard, they draw their weapons when I do, but they walk on their patrolling path. It must be the UFO mod thats causing this glitch.

Yeah, but depending on your character build, that could be more fun than fighting them with a sword. Especially if you're like me and level up your illusion skill. Pickpocket the lot of weapons and armour and then hide in a corner while spamming the fury/frenzy spell at all available targets. It becomes like "crab wars" but with nuddy bandits instead. :oD ways to entertain yourself in Skyrim.

Hi! Oh, would that "white clothing", be the default loinclothes that are there, when no nudity mods are used? I don't play with nude males in "Skyrim", unlike in "Oblivion" where I have to do so to get the females to look like I want themn to look, just females, so I don't even know what the default look is for females, oh, wait, yes I do, thanks to the "Wound Test" apparel items. They look like a mundane-cut, brown, bikini swimsuit. If you get the mod that lets you play the usually non-playable outfits, you can play the "Wound Test" outfits. Or is there some sort of other white outfit, like a bathrobe or bath towel? I'd like my female PC to have such items. I think that she'd look better in those white loinclothes than the guys do too, for that matter. But as for, "UFO", I suppose so. I was even able to take away their default clothes, marked with asterisks by the way, so that they can't put those back on, but it took awhile for that to take affect in-game. Now I'm on a new game, and I'm waiting for that affect to happen again.
