📋 About This Mod
This mod changes the overall height of the various races and beasts in Skyrim. It also takes into account the gender of each race and beast, which means Males are (usually) taller than Females. I have also turned the dial to 11 on the Giants and they are now bigger, badder and ready to smash you into the ground... stratosphere. Enjoy!
Update: Morrowind and Oblivion heights are here!
I made 2 new version that adhere strictly to the lore friendly heights of Morrowind and Oblivion. They are very similar to say the least but they are in fact different. Oblivion has slightly larger Nords, Orcs and Redguards than the Morrowind version so choose whichever version suits you.

Update 2: I have added a new sound set of edited Giant sounds called "Louder Giants". This does exactly what it says. The giants have a more bassy and powerful sound to them now that is more befitting such a large creature. Enjoy!
Update 3: I have added a new file called "1st Person View by Race" this provides different first person skeletons for the various races and versions of H. A. R's v3. Now you can (manually) install the correct 1st person skeleton that corresponds to your particular race for a more accurate 1st person view. Enjoy!
Update 4: Height Adjusted Races with True Giants v4. This update was required after it was found that horse combat was not working correctly. This required a full remake of the mod and all it's variants from the ground up. v4 corrected those problems and horse combat works as intended now. I hate updates...
Update 5: Height Adjusted Races with True Giants v5. Added Dawnguard compatibility to fix grey head bug.
Update 6: Height Adjusted Races with True Giants v6. This update was a complete rewrite of the mod to make it more modular for those who don't have all the DLC's.
