Hey, I love this idea, just about to start my first time half orc playthrough....after it turns out universally all my friends think I would be a half orc, trying to take it as a compliment!
But, I have never modded before, could you (either lmk if its simple or) send me a link to a video or where i can learn how to use a mod framework? I have had a look, and I can't figure out how to drop this into the toolkit to make my own sub race.
Ah i see, yeah I spent a lot of last night going through basic tutorials of the tool kit just learning what everything is there.
Yes I am trying to do exactly what you have done, however, (for a half elf half orc) I am going to try and give the race body sizes 3 and 4, and different head models, i.e. half elf heads, as well as change the passive you receive from the race, get rid of savage attacker and give the elven militia or fey ancestry.
From what I gather it can be done, but using the parent race ids and then creating a sub race got me a little confused.
Any help would be appreciated, however, so I understand your framework, is this something I slap into the mod manager and do in game?
There is nothing extra you have to do to use the Framework or the Half-Scro subrace. The main mod basically just shifts the Half-Orc into a subrace. To use the Half-Scro, you'll need the framework also to make it work. The extra work only comes in if you want to add a new subrace to Half-Orc
this would be so bomb- i love half orcs sm its such a fun playthrough with all the different char reactions, but I adore appearance mods and they never work for my babies :((((
File dependencies / versions still seem messed up...
Specifically, getting SE console lor err msg: [Mod Configuration Menu][WARN][C]: Mod 'Half-Scro - Descendants of the Space Orcs' requires 'Tribes - Half-Orc Subraces' version 1.1.0.0 or higher, but loaded version is 1.0.0.0 Please update Tribes - Half-Orc Subraces.
Buuut... I *have* updated it. Several times. Multiple downloads. MCM keeps seeing the framework mod as v.1.0.0.0, regardless of what d/l I use.
Which mod manager are you using? Ignore the above question. When I download it from here, it shows 1.0.0.0, but my version that I keep uploaded is 1.1.0.1. Trying to figure out why.
I don't know how, but it seems like it is only coming after downloading from Nexus. I'm going to try again to upload one with the correct version numbers.

Really appreciate it!
Are you wanting to try to create your own subrace?

The framework file version shows up as v1.0.0.0 in BG3MM (prior to launching game), as a dependency warning in MCM, and in the SE console log.
Nexus' file d/l management borkage?
Right version in BG3MM, no SE console log err msg, no MCM dependency err... onward!
