DESCRIPTION

Hello, and welcome to this mod.

I like the Demoness race, but found it had a couple of issues. Firstly, the statistics were rather homogenous and there were no special abilities to further vary the three subtypes. Secondly, despite there being tail mesh and texture files, and the race statistics pointing to the correct filepaths, no tail was visible on the characters. I surmise this is because of how the Demontail nif is set up. Thirdly, the race ids were NordCopyxxx, and one of these interfered with another race I like to play (sundemon). Fourthly, a lot of custom races lack the starting spells of standard races. Lastly I found the races a bit too tall for my tastes.

So I made a few modifications, including the addition of the Spike's DemonTail resource. For personal role-playing purposes, I am assuming a wave of cosmic energy lashed out from the eternal storm and altered the reality of Nirn. You are welcome to justify the changes to the Demoness races however you like in your own gaming.

As always, if you are already satisfied with the original mod this one is based on you don't have to download this mod.

This mod is otherwise free to use, distribute, and adapt without permission. The only additional conditions I make are:

CONTACT

You can contact me by commenting on this mod's webpage, or any of my uploaded mods. I can also be reached by Private Message on the Nexus.

Please inform me as soon as possible of any problems you may encounter while using this mod. Feedback and constructive criticism are welcome, as are suggestions for future mods. Complaints and lack of civility are a waste of time.

CONFLICTS/ISSUES

This mod was used alongside over 100 other mods, including several of those I have made and uploaded to NexusMods. I am reasonably confident that any crashes or unusual behaviour I experienced are due to other mods, or too many mods.

Known Issues: As noted in the original mod, some clipping is possible with the hair styles. In addition, if you already have a Demoness character they might become unplayable due to the changes made. Starting a new character is recommended, as then you will gain the full advantages of this mod.

Skimpiness Factor: That will rather depend upon what your character wears . . .

Playtest Report: My first test of these changes was a Demoness Seducer, and I became rather entranced by the sight of her tail waving about as she ran around on her adventures . . . When in Cyrodiil, Azaelos Darkflame wears Lethal Majesty by Sinblood and Latex Dream by DFSL.

Tested on a ZKEC Wide Explorer E Nude upper body and ZKEC Extra Wide Nude lower body, with ZKEC female foot and hands. Let's pretend all those wrist seams are invisible bracelets.

My current roster of playtest characters are mostly low-level. Your gaming experience may differ if you favour higher-level characters.

IN CLOSING

This mod was created using the latest version of the Construction Set, and playtested with The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion 5th Anniversary Edition. While Shivering Isles and Knights Of The Nine were installed at the time, only the former is necessary for use of this mod. No utility, e.g. OBSE, was installed or used. Screenshots may include elements of other mods.

This ReadMe is a balance of clarity and brevity, and is is assumed that the end user of this mod has read the ReadMe and understands that any issues that may arise during modded play are beyond the mod author's control.

These mods are my way of sharing some of the fun I have playing Oblivion. If you like my mods, please give a thumbs up so others can know they are appreciated; and, feel free to recommend them to others. Thank you for reading, and enjoy your gaming.
