📋 About This Mod
This is a back port of Metalsaber's Beautiful Orcs of Skyrim.
He gets all the credits for the content of this mod. I am just the knucklehead who back ported it.
Any Errors in the back-Port are mine and have nothing to do with Metalsaber
or the original mod. He has graciously permitted me to back port it
to Skyrim LE for all of you to enjoy.
If anyone finds a problem, please let me know and I will do my best to rectify it.
Version 1. 1 simply removes the flag to use opposite gender animations, so now they should move like women.
The Special Edition version of
Metalsabers Beautiful Orcs of Skyrim
The following is the description From Metalsaber's Beautiful Orcs of Skyrim page from the Special Edition I have posted Below
This mod is an overhaul of the Orcs of Skyrim. I didn't touch the ones from the Bijin mod series. This mod includes new facegen/facetint
data. It includes hair as well. This mod will use YOUR skin
textures. I've also updated a few of the characters outfits to
non-hooded versions. Most everything else was left alone including
weights/heights, skin/hair colors.
- NOTE: This does use your skin and eye textures, you should install a quality
female skin texture pack (higher res is always better). You should also
install an eye mod that replaces the vanilla elf eye textures. To get
the full benefit of the mod, you should really have an ENB installed to
really bring out the skin textures.
As always, endorsements are appreciated. Original content takes some effort to
come up with vs porting. It certainly give me encouragement to continue
creating original character mods.
The 21 Orcs touched in this version include:
GrorzaGraBagol
LashGraDushnikh
UrzogaGraShugurz
Enhanced Character Edit SE by ECE team
KS Hairdos SSE by Kalilies

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 751 endorsements and over 17k downloads
- Uses your skin textures, so it plays nice with your texture mods
- Adds new facegen and hair, making Orcs look more polished
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2019, so may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions
- Excludes Bijin Orcs, so if you use Bijin you'll have inconsistent looks
For Skyrim players who want their Orc NPCs to look more attractive without replacing skin textures. If you're tired of the default ugly Orcs and want a simple visual upgrade, this is for you. Skip if you want gameplay changes or if you rely on Bijin mods for all NPC overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod uses your skin textures, make sure your skin texture mod is installed before this one to get the intended look.
- If you use Bijin mods, be aware that Orcs from Bijin won't be affected, so you might see a mix of styles.
- Load this mod after other NPC overhauls to ensure its facegen data takes priority.
