📋 About This Mod

- []... you want Cobl Races - Balanced stats and OCO v2 cosmetic changes at the same time but don't know how to merge those changes by yourself.[/] []... you want to play a Dark Seducer, Golden Saint or Dremora character compatible with OCO v2.[/] []... you're looking for additional hair and eyes options for vanilla races fully compatible with OCO v2 but, again, don't know how to merge them yourself (and/or you are even lazier than me).[/]
Important stuff Tiny, yet modular mod made by request, primarily intended to balance out stats to Cobl Races - Balanced standards. Use only one of the included plugins.
What each plugin does:
- []OCO v2 Balanced.esp: Rebalances stats and adds custom playable Dark Seducer, Golden Saint and Dremora races compatible with OCO v2.[/] []OCO v2 Balanced - No Bonus Races.esp: Only rebalances stats.[/] []OCO v2 Balanced - Bonus Races Only.esp: Only adds custom playable Dark Seducer, Golden Saint and Dremora races compatible with OCO v2.[/] []OCO v2 Balanced - Cobl.esp (recommended): Requires Cobl.esm and Cobl Cosmetic resources. It merges most features from Cobl Races - Balanced and OCO v2.
