Overview

This mod makes several changes to enable you to create more feminine female Orc player characters.

• This mod changes the female Orc player character to use the female idle and walk animations, and to use the human player voice for shouts and combat.
  

• This mod adds more male and female Orc player character creation options for eyes, noses, and mouths.
  

• This mod unlocks all male and female vanilla eye colors for all races other than Argonian and Khajiit.
  

• Version 2 adds the Snow Elf eye colors, and more vampire eye colors, introduced with Dawnguard.
  

• Version 2 is ESL-flagged to minimize the impact on your load order.

Requirements

This mod is standalone and does not require or depend on any other mods.

A set of 4 presets is available in the Optional Files section. The presets require RaceMenu, and KS Hairdos.


Compatibility

This mod is compatible with RaceMenu but does not require it.

This mod is compatible with another mod of mine, Vanilla Eye Colors Unlocked. However, this mod includes all the changes from Vanilla Eye Colors Unlocked, so if you use this mod, you do not need Vanilla Eye Colors Unlocked.

This mod is not compatible with any mod that edits the Orc race in any form, and a patch would be needed to combine the Orc race record changes.
A patch is provided for Imperious - Races of Skyrim in the Optional Files section of this mod. All credit for the Imperious changes belongs to the mod author EnaiSiaion.

This mod is not compatible with Female Animations For Female Orcs. However, this mod makes the same animation changes as Female Animations For Female Orcs, so if you use this mod, you do not need Female Animations For Female Orcs.


Technical Details

This mod contains a .esp file and a .tri file. This mod does not contain any meshes or textures.

This mod's .esp file contains an override OrcRace record that was copied from Update.esm

The following changes were made to the override OrcRace record:

• Changed Player Female Voice to FemaleEvenToned to match human races
• Changed Female Behavior Graph animations to female
• Changed Male Head Data Available Morphs to add all missing nose, eye, and lip morphs
• Changed Female Head Data Available Morphs to add all missing nose, eye, and lip morphs
  

This mod's .esp file contains an override OrcRaceVampire record that was copied from Dawnguard.esm

The following changes were made to the override OrcRaceVampire record:

• Changed Player Female Voice to FemaleEvenToned to match human races
• Changed Female Behavior Graph animations to female
  

(For the override OrcRaceVampire record, there was no need to change the Male/Female Head Data Available Morphs because all possible nose, eye, and lip morphs are already present in the record from Dawnguard.esm)

This mod includes a .tri file named mouthorcfemalechargen.tri which includes the Orc mouth morphs for each of the mouth shapes selectable in character creation. When you choose a particular mouth shape in the character creator, the game puts together the corresponding lip morph and mouth morph.

Since the goal of this mod is to enable more feminine female Orc player characters, I carefully chose an appropriate Orc mouth morph with small teeth for each of the added 20 mouth shapes for Orc females, while minimizing clipping between teeth and lips. (Orc males also get 20 additional mouth shapes, but with the default male Orc mouth morph.)

This mod includes all the changes from another mod of mine, Vanilla Eye Colors Unlocked. The eye color changes are listed below.

This mod unlocks existing vanilla eye colors for all races other than Argonian and Khajiit, so that the eye colors are available for player character creation and editing.

This mod works by overriding "Head Part" records that are present in the Skyrim.esm file or Dawnguard.esm file.

This mod makes two changes to the Head Part records for all the eyes for races other than Argonian and Khajiit:

• Adds the Playable flag to any eyes that lack the flag. This makes the eye color available for the player character.
• Changes the Valid Races to HeadPartsAllRacesMinusBeast.
