About this mod

Racial Compatibily improved compatibility with other mods. (For example, such as UFO, USKP, Better Vampire, Vampiric Thirst and Dawnguard.) Not for Dawnguard only. This works well with or without Dawnguard.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
I am not good at English. So enough support is not possible, please understand it.

(2012/03/19) I uploaded a new version 1.6. It supports Character Making Extender and fixes an issue that caused when used console command "ShowRaceMenu".

(2012/12/05) I uploaded a new tutorial how to create a custom playable race. It supports 'Mounted Combat'.
Since Expired's original tutorial was written before Mounted Combat Update, it does not support Mounted Combat.

;------------------------------
; Caution:
;------------------------------
This package requires Skyrim 1.8 or later.


;------------------------------
; Features:
;------------------------------
This package is an improved version of "Creating a Playable Race - The right way by Expired"
And this has backward compatible for the original version.

The difference between the original version and this version is that:
- This does not rewrite PlayerVampireQuestScript.pex and CompanionsHouseKeppingScript.pex. So, compatible better with other mods that rewrite these .pex files.
(e.g. UFO, Better Vampire, Vampiric Thirst and Dawnguard.)
- This includes some bug fix.
(e.g. WoodElfRace and WoodElfRaceVampire were not included in the race list)
- Not for Dawnguard only. This works well with or without Dawnguard.


;------------------------------
; Compatibility Example:
;------------------------------
Custom Race + UFO
Custom Race + Better Vampires (+ UFO)
Custom Race + Vampiric Thirst (+ UFO)
Custom Race + Dawnguard (+ UFO)
Custom Race + Dawnguard + Better Vampires Dawnguard Compatible (+ UFO)
Custom Race + Dawnguard + Vampiric Thirst Dawnguard Edition (+ UFO)

If you will overwrite the original version of Racial Compatibility:
The following pex files will not be used anymore, please check file size and delete it if match.

- Data/Scripts/CompanionsHouseKeepingScript.pex: If file size is 28,504 bytes, please delete it.

;?Troubleshooting:
;------------------------------
This mod has code to detect conflicts in-game.
If displayed as "Detected script conflict at (PEX file name). Do you want to display this message again?"
(1) Select "Yes", and quit the game.
(2) Delete the PEX file displayed. PEX file is in skyrim/Data/scripts folder.
(3) Re-install MODs that are in conflict.
This message will not appear if the conflict is resolved.

If you want to ignore this message, select "No".
(However the conflict is not resolved.)
