[Suggestion] Hide Helmet Toggle.

Uriel_Nocturne

I understand that this is an aesthetic request, and that there are certain stability and QoL changes that should come first, but I at least want to get this on the list of "possible future improvements".

I RP my characters. A lot.

Thus, I find myself frequently utilizing the Hide Helmet feature in the Gameplay section of the Options menu. I have my characters show their helmet when out adventuring and "working" on a Quest/Adventure/Delve/Dungeon, but they Hide their helmets when wandering around the various Towns/Cities/Social Spaces.

Could we add in an option to assign the Hide Helmet command to our hotkey/keypad? This would save me some time in cruising through menu options, and would be a neat QoL update IMO.

@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_RichLambert Could we do this please?

If you're on PC, there's an addon for that.

Nope. Xbox.

But I think it would be a neat addition to the Console experience.

I would actually like to see more than this - I would like to see multiple costume slots:
"Questing Costume" - The costume we currently have
"Civilian Costume" - A costume which only activates within large settlements.
"Alliance War Costume" - A costume that activates in Cyrodiil and Imperial City.
"Dungeon Costume" - A costume which activates in dungeons/trials.

I have thought this soooooo many times. I am constantly switching helm on/off.

How do you envision 'activating' to take place?
Currently return to one of my houses, swap outfits there, then head back out and do town-related things

am not entirely adverse to automatically changing in front of other people upon passing through the city gates
but it would still seem kind of weird

Spent an hour in character creation perfecting my faces im not helming that crap

Really should be part of the base UI. A simple "/helm" command toggle would be great.

Helmets?
What are those?
Are they those invisible things I equip my beautiful characters with?

If I could assign the hide helmet toggle to a hotkey, I would use it too! However, I hope that it would not be possible to abuse the toggle; I do not want to see people running around with a helmet blinking on and off their face as they spam the hotkey, that would be strange!

Is it possible to use the addon to abuse the toggle? Fortunately, I have never seen anyone spamming on and off their helmet, but it would certainly be distracting.

And with the Update that came along with Dragonbones, the Outfit system now has moved the "Hide Helmet" command from the "Gameplay" menu to the "Appearance" sub-Menu of the Collections menu.

ANd, they made it a command that is assignable to a hotkey!!!!

WOOT!

Thanks, ZOS! I love this!
