Dedicated to DSFL - his friendly comments and screenshots
have helped me find my way through dark times
- the light at the end of the tunnel
isn't always the chicago express

Robert Male:

Just make sure to follow Robert's detailed instructions or at least
your Khajiits' look will need a lot of getting used to ;)
The choice of the bulky, muscular or slender is ES IV wide for all
male characters; you can only pick one.
'Slof and BlackDragon66 both prefer the bulky shape, while I have
muscular active.
MaleFullbodyV3MeshAdd2V11zip is really a matter of taste:
I myself don't go for beer bellies or extra muscular ;)


When an Oblivion gate accidently openend in Kalimdor, a platoon of night elves entered after fighting back the invading daedra. After closing the gate, they found themselves in Tamriel.
Since they had become completely severed from the life-giving energy of the moonwells, they were no longer immortal and were vulnerable to the elements.
As centuries passed by, they had shrunk in height and their skin had become a peach hue similar to most dwarves and humans.

Adds Mystic Night Elves as a playable race.

Requirements:
Oblivion Patch 1.2.0.214 (Official 1.2 Patch)
Unofficial Oblivion Patch (recommended) or any custom race fix

Beautiful People 2.2 or the Beautiful People (2.2) Soya Merge or Beautiful People 2.5 and better or any other modification(s) which include Nequam's Elaborate Eyes, Ren's Hair and Ren's Mystic Elves.

The Moonwell Night Elves within version 1.1 just need the Babe Hair meshes -
please don't use the esp with any flavors of bp / any plugin wich changes hair
for the races.

Recommendations:
MD Natural Faces ( ! Just the textures and meshes, not the esp! ) with Dani's Beauty Patch 1.3 - I recommend to use a d/l of natural faces which includes head textures
beginning with md_head* and and use them instead of the stock head*.dds files
(anyway, please don't delete the stock head textures hence there is no telling how#
many races need them)

Installation:
Extract the data folder to [...] Bethesda Softworks/Oblivion/
Extract the esp file which matches your configuration and likings to [...] Bethesda Softworks/Oblivion/data
Start Oblivion Launcher, click 'Data Files', place a checkmark beside the .esp file.

Abbreviations in the plugin names:

bab = Compatible with bab rc1 and Exnem

bp_22 = Compatible with Beautiful People 2.2 and merges based on it as well as with some Elaborate Eyes versions

bp_25 = Compatible with Beautiful People 2.5

def = Compatible with Bethesda's default body

le = long ears; Spike's Night Elves ears, extra long

ne = normal ears; Spike's Night Elves ears, normal size like in Zombie 216's Night Elves release

To those who run Exnem's replacer:
please use one of the bab labeled plugins - with the def (default) plugins you would get odd results, since they are linked to handfemale.dds instead of footfemale.dds

Uninstall:
1. Start Oblivion Launcher, click Data Files, uncheck the .esp file(s).
2. Delete the folder associated with the mod:
[...] /Oblivion/Data/Meshes/Characters/ MysticNE

Requirements: Oblivion Patch 1.2.0.214, Beautiful People 2.5 +

Authors: BlackDragon66 & Chairon De Celeste

Description:
Adds 6 playable races for Exnem V1 & Robert V3 athletic body (non-bulky)
and armor & weapon set in Piukanda, north-west of Aleswell.

Location of the armor and weapon set:
Go to the Ayleid ruin of Piukanda, but be well prepared - and if you play

Recommended for the Exnem EC Night Elves:
GothicDoll's excellent NightOwl tatoo set,
which you find here


Details:

Blood Elves:

Attempting to find out more about the strange daedric intruders to their lands
and their invasion portals , the Blood Elves found Mehrunes Dagon's lost realm.

Brownie:

The Brownies step out the forests of Tamriel to claim their place in Cyrodiil's history. A tad
taller than Mundus Terra's Brownie races, they are still deadly illusionists.

Half-Breed Demon Elves:

The Half-Breed Demon Elves fight the Daedra, their former slavers, now in their very homelands. (one flavor holds a suprise for the ladies ...)

Moonwell Night Elf:

The Night Elves of Azeroth have come to Tamriel, but find themselves slowly and greatly changed...
These Night Elves still value their ancestral traditions high and settled in the icy north-east of Cyrodiil

Mystic Night Elf:

The Night Elves of Azeroth have come to Tamriel, but find themselves slowly and greatly changed...
After mating with the other elven races of Nirn, they differ from their Night Elf ancestors...

Night Elf:

The Night Elves of Azeroth have come to Tamriel.
The way they looked when they 1st set foot on Nirn's soil.

Saved Games Issues:

Tutorial Scribble: Saved Games with the 'wrong' race id (invisible pc body):

When your pc has an 'invisible body' after updating a plugin or after
switching from Beautiful People to Cosmetic Compilation for example,
this is because ES IV no longer finds your pc's race from the saved game.

Here's how to get your pc back:

1st go back to the old esp,
load your saved game and save it again - don't close the menu!
then open the console and type showracemenu
don't close the console or the character generation at any point
(game must stay paused)
chose a race outside the esp, hit 'escape' twice and save, then load the
the new saved game without closing any menues / the console.
- save again and exit ES IV
Now you can switch to the new esp and repeat the steps to switch
back to your custom race and apply your slider / choice changes.
