1. Description
Several races in Morrowind/Oblivion have in-game measurements that are inconsistent with written lore, for example it's mentioned that Bretons are the shortest of the human races but in both games they are the same height as the Imperials. Or that in more recent Elder Scrolls media Orsimer are shown to be the second tallest race after Altmer but in Morrowind Orcs are shorter than Nords and in Oblivion they are the same height.
Along with this certain races are unrealistically sized such as the male Redguards who are shown to be much smaller than both Orsimer and Nords despite them having higher strength than the Orcs and being on equal strength with the Nords.
So this mod corrects these discrepancies by changing racial sizes and stats while still keeping them lore friendly and balanced. For any race that I've lowered an attribute I've also raised another attribute to even the numbers out.
Along with this I've given the males of each individual race wider body frames than the females to make their builds more realistic. The extent of this varies depending on the specific race and the game's vanilla attribute points.
For those who like the new race sizes but may want to keep the vanilla racial attributes I've added an optional file. I've also made a version of this mod for Morrowind.
2. Installation and Requirements
Manually drop the ESP file in your "Data" folder or install via Wyre Bash or OBMM
The default launcher will not launch any mod that changes the vanilla race values so to use this mod you need to use either Oblivion Mod Manager (OBMM) or Wyre Bash to activate it.
3. Compatibility
Will be incompatible with any mods that alter the "Race" tab in the construction set.
4. Formula
The formula I used to determine the changes:
Males have 0.05 higher weight than females:
Example: Altmer males and females share the same strength value of 30 so males are set at 1.05 weight and females are set to 1.00 weight.
0.05 weight for every 5 points of Strength value:
Example: Redguard males have a strength value of 50 while females have 40, so males are set to 1.20 and females are set to 1.05.
The gender automatically increases the size by 0.05 and the 10 difference in strength adds 0.10, added together that creates a 0.15 change in weight.
