Ronzo in Skyrim SSE


This is a port with a few enhancements of Ronzo in Skyrim v1.29 by kazumamqj. It's a race mod that adds the Ronzo (or Ronso) race, an anthropomorphic race that originates from Final Fantasy X. The mod features custom armor, weapons, and a few racial spells (which are pretty powerful).

All assets have been optimized for Skyrim SSE, with a few enhacements to scripts, text and forms.

If you play as a Ronzo, you'll be considered a Khajiit by other NPCs.

I haven't extensively tested the mod yet, so please do send a comment if you face any issues with it.

RonzoFollowers plugin

Starting with version 2.0, the mod now includes the RonzoFollowers extra plugin. It can be safely removed if unneeded.
This plugin adds a new location, Gagazet Mountain. It features several locations and adds the ability to recruit Ronzo followers, such as Kimahri. To access the new location, a waypoint has been added to the world map, around the Arcwind Point region. You can fast travel there to start accessing Gagazet Mountain. It is a rather difficult zone, so be careful if you are low level.

Need More Ronzos plugin

This plugin adds extra encounters with Ronzos in various places, such as bandit camps. Considering that Ronzos are innately more powerful than other races, this could increase the difficulty of encounters featuring them.

Installing

To install this mod, you need to have RaceCompatibilty for Skyrim Special Edition installed first. Then, you simply need to copy over the mod's files to your Data folder, like any other mod. Using a mod manager is recommended for ease of use.
Starting from version 2.0 of the mod and Need More Ronzos 1.1, the plugins will only work with update 1.6.1130 and up. The plugins now use version 1.71.

Upgrading the main mod from 1.1 to 2.0

2.0 changes the ESM/ESP files pretty drastically, and is therefore not compatible with saves that used 1.1.
If you want to upgrade from 1.1, it is better to start a new save file. You can try scrubbing references from the previous version, but this will probably be a tedious process.

Known issues

Body mesh patches haven't been ported as I don't use them. If you ported one of the extra files successfully I'll be glad to include them to the file list.

For now, the bugs that existed in the mod still exist in this version :
  • Small clipping issues
  • Khajiit eyes and hairstyles can be selected in RaceMenu, even though they are unsupported (which will obviously look wrong)
  • Wearing open-footed footwear (sandals and the like) will lead to strange-looking feet textures, as the race uses a custom foot mesh. Try using the spell to transform vanilla armour into Ronzo armour. This won't work for everything but it's worth giving it a shot.

NOTE: I haven't been able to contact the original mod author to ask if they allowed me to post this port (in fact, I did a crappy port of the mod years ago and asked them back then, and never got a response). This means that at any moment the mod could be removed if the original author asked me.
