Is there any save way to change race mid-game? (PC)

Post » Wed Mar 06, 2013 5:07 pm

I can use the console command.

I know that you can change your race with the "setracemenu". But everytime as I turn back human after I was in werewolf form, my race changes back to my original one.

My question is if anyone knows a better way to do this? (don't really favour mods)

Shouldn't there be any other way then I just don't transform into a werewolf anymore.

You could try Player.SetRace xxxxx.

Also, just as a FYI, console commands are for the most part much more destructive and dangerous than mods could ever be.

use "showracemenu" instead (be in god mode "tgm" while you do it so you wouldnt lose any your attribute points tho!) that way you shouldnt revert back after transformations

Nice, I'll give this a try later and let you know if it worked!


Edit: I also used showracemenu before, but I reverted back. Didn't use tgm though so I hope that it would be solved then.

Okay just deleted my Breton and started over with a Nord as it seems that they are the only race I like to play.


Also what you get when you try console commands (HAHA):

lol, looks quite cool. I found out about this console command the other day, here is the information about it :

Source http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Console




showracemenu Opens the character creation menu. Note: Using this command to alter one's race will reset skills and health/magicka/stamina to default levels. This command can be safely used to alter a character's appearance without causing any unwanted side-effects as long as race is not changed. However, it should be noted that upon completing your changes and choosing a name for your character, all temporary active effects (such as Gift of Charity or shrine blessings) will be removed. Racial resistances will no longer be listed in Active Effects until the game is loaded from the main menu, at which time racial resistances will be automatically reapplied. Permanent active effects such as those from guardian stones or perks will not be lost. Active effects granted from enchanted items will not be listed until the items are re-equipped.


showracemenu &--#60;race&--#62; Changes the player's race. Example: showracemenu bretonrace will make your character into a Breton. This variation of showracemenu doesn't actually show the race menu, but instead works like setplayerrace &--#60;race&--#62;. Skills bonuses/powers change to reflect new race, but it messes up skills/attributes like showracemenu past lv1. Setting race to 'nordrace' from any other race seems to result in a no head glitch unless used from the chargen menu.
