Description
===========
This is my first mod for fallout, not that thats totally relevant, although it does a bit to explain why I messed up with uploaded a beta.
Anyway this mod allows you to play as normally unplayable races, to be more specific they are;
Child, (Buggy please read bugs/Issues Section) prefixed "Young"
Normal, (Of course) prefixed "Adult"
Tribal, (Lookout Only) prefixed "Tribal"
Old, prefixed "M. Aged"
Raider, prefixed "Weathered"
Pitt, (Pitt Only) prefixed "Scabbed"
OldAged, prefixed "Old"
They are also age chained in that order, for those that don't know player.agerace # will let you cycle through them all.
And lets not forget the Ghoul race, along with optional (though recomended) age chained Ghoul Child (Included in Merge)
Why change the Age Chains? Because some races such as OldAged are chained wierdly and this will also allow you to manually
fix the inherrent wierdness of AgeRace scripts such as Tranquility Lane and 101 tutorials.
This mod also adds eyes and hairs to said races and renames them too e.g. hairghoulf02 becomes playable as Whispy,
hairwavyold becomes Still Got It.
This mod will conflict with other race mods.

Known Issues or Bugs
====================
(Children)
The Child Races are buggy here are some of the bugs I know. There may be a seperate mod to fix them, if you find one PM so I can link it to this mod
Blank Preview:
Cause: Rotating a childs head will cause the preview to blank 100% of the time.
Solution: Don't rotate a childs head.
Work Around: Swap to a different race, rotate and swap back, only useful for previewing hair as it resets geometry.
Fixing: Swap to a different race and gender until working properly (may not work), load earlier game.
Wrong Scale:
Cause: Choosing Child at CharGen.
Fixing: Use console command player.setscale 1
Unable to use certain things.
Cause: Not sure probably the child tab but I want to leave that as is for now.
(Other)
Purpleness:
Cause: Missing texture files.
Workaround: Dont pick the offending race or parts.
Fixing: Make sure the Pitt and Lookout addons are properly intsalled and patched.
Missing Hair and eyes
Cause: You have mods running which conflict with this, normally hair and eye mods.
Solution: Merge the mods.
Fixing: Disable this mod or the other one.
Head Clipping:
Cause: The different head models from Children, OldAged and Ghoul clip with certain hairs and hats.
Workaround: Only wear bulky hats and helmets or none at all.
Solution: Mesh Replacer, I don't know of any though.
Broken Broken Steel:
Cause: The ending bink script can only handle the default races and so stops functioning with custom ones
Workaround: Swap race.
Solution: Get a mod that enables custom races past ending bink, I have uploaded a quickly made one under optional, requires BS.
