Notes

• WARNING: Changing the file path of an ArmorAddon affects all armor using it!
• This is to set the nif file of the equipped model on an actor. Use SetModelPath - Armor to set the nif file of the armor as it appears on the ground.
• Remember that this function sets string values for ArmorAddon objects, not for Armor objects. You can use GetNthArmorAddon on Armor objects to quickly retrieve ArmorAddon objects, however.
• Graphical glitches can result if the target ArmorAddon and the source ArmorAddon do not use the same Biped Objects.
  • Example: Changing IronHelmetAA (Biped: 31 & 43) to use the model path from EbonyHelmetAA (Biped: 30) will result in a bald character wearing no helmet.
