Reworks vanilla races. Needed as a building block for compatibility, specially with my hirelings and origins mods.

Features
  • Adds subraces for humans. (As in the picture)
  • Adds Gith as a race, and Githyanki and Githzerai as subraces. (Use Followers of Zerthimon to populate the githzerai)
  • Moves Drows as a subrace of Elf.
  • Moves Half-Orc as a subrace of Orc and as a subrace of Human.
  • Moves Half-Elf as a subrace of Elf and a subrace of Human.
  • Adds racial 5e ability scores to each race and subrace.
  • Reorganizes vanilla races alphabetically.
  • Make custom races able to take their place among the vanilla races in Alphabetical order. Currently supports Aasimar, Half Dragon and Gnolls (caveat that half dragon dragonborns are not added).
  • If you want to: A) Go for a Larian approach and make this rework not add racial ability scores, I'll make an optional file available in the really near future for that. B) You want a full on 5e approach and keep racial bonuses BUT eliminate the +2 free selector added by larian I'll make a mod available for that in Plus Classes in the near future.
  • Makes half elf, drow and elf heads available to Elf. Makes half elf, half orc and humans heads available to human.
  • Half elf in the human race inherit some racial features from humans to signal they are human raised, same for any other half bread. In the same way elf half bread receive more racial passives from elves to signal their heritage.
  • Renamed subraces to match 5e, as examples: Drows (Dark Elves) are now divided into Udadrow (lolth elves), Lorendrow and Aevandrow (work in progress); Dwarves are not using their Hill and mountain naming scheme, High elves were renamed to Sun elf to allow for other High Elves to be added (Star Elves, Moon Elves and so on), made a placeholder for Mountain Orc and Grey orc as actual Orc races.
  • I'll make a list of new racial passives added in the article section tomorrow. But as an example humans receive +1 to every ability score, meanwhile wood elves get +2 dex and +1 wisdom.
  • For modders added new parent races at different points as to reduce workloads hopefully (details will be on an article soon).
  • For fans and users of my origins and hirelings mods. Now I'll be able to make everything I release properly match vanilla looks.
  • Unlock Shar, Vlaakith and Bhaal as god options.
Plans
I'll be adding races overtime. I'll make drop in replacements for whatever other races modders make as long as they are quality work.
I need help with recommendation on how the presets should look (fan arts, images, descriptions) for each new race and general feedback. I also need specific recommendation about racials that make each one more unique.
I'll be adding the option to pick tails and horns to every race soon.

For Modders
I added the following parent races for when you must modify Races.lsx and you want to target certain race sizes instead of them all at "Humanoid" but also avoiding writing a million entries and help with compatibility.

Load Order:
There are 2 files. One is an override which you will no need to touch, and the other is labelled as Plus Races - Rework. Place this after any files that modify vanilla races but before than currently supported mods.

Compatibility:
Check the currently supported customraces.
Check how to add your race to the system by sending me this information (WIP).

Contributing:
I want to start this segment by telling you that if you are busy, just want to enjoy the game, or have no means to contribute then don't worry about it because I make all of this available for people's enjoyment.
This section is for those persons that want to join in and contribute be it by making images, making suggestion, making images, uploading photos,
making description, making icons, making heads or donating in any of my mods. You are all welcome, and seeing interest in the mods help me continue making them. Get in touch, leave comments and feedback, recommend to your friends, whatever! Join up. I can do more with you all.

Disclaimers:

  • Modding always has a risk of breaking your on-going saves. Keep this is mind to diminish frustrations if, or when, it happens.
  • Remember to read the description pages of mods, and every resource modders make available, instead of avoiding that and going the "easy" but time consuming route of asking again while disregarding everything. If it is a new or unknown issue then I'm happy to help.
  • Even if I make available a guide on how to use Vortex successfully, I only truly support BG3MM usage.
  • Don't repost my work, or copy it. I'll make sure to add people that has permission of usage but otherwise if you see it elsewhere they are likely abusing.
  • Piece of advice: You can likely disregard reading from the "Links" section onwards if you have done so once on my mods already as this is part of a signature copied over to every mod I release, and I'll likely edit the pinned comment with the last version update that the pinned information changed as to save you the hassle of reading twice the same thing.
  • My old mods will get updated description pages if they are the old format.
  • Happy gaming.
