Shopkeepers wearing equipment sold to them

Is there a way to disable that behavior from merchants? Looking at Sirollus Saccus, one of the few merchants in the game who can sold you one of the female armor sets that came with the official LeFemm Armor plugin, the dude puts the female armor on himself so in the end the armor becomes unsellable to the player. Clearly not the indented behavior that Bethesda had in mind when they made the game.

I hope the OpenMw team will treat the problem as a dangerous poisonous bug that needs crashing but until then, is there any alternative? The mod Fashionable merchants won't work with OpenMw...

Yes.

[DagothTelasMw]

Yes.

Oh man! Time to see myself out i guess. <Slowly fades away>

No seriously, thanks a LOT for this, i never knew that i can enable all of these awesome features.

Edit: For other clueless people like me.

Open your settings.cfg file with notepad and add the following lines.

[Game]
prevent merchant equipping= true

I believe this is now mediated with the introduction of feature https://bugs.openmw.org/issues/4054.

Or in 0.44 and later, you can turn it on in the Launcher.
