📋 About This Mod
DEPRECATED. USE SYNTHESIS PATCHER INSTEAD.
There are 10 playable races in Skyrim. And oh so many more of them if you can use mods!
There is a problem, however. People in Skyrim are pretty racist as you'll know very well, especially if you've ever played a Dunmer (just show up in Windhelm) or a Khajiit (every single bandit wants to make a rug out of you) and even Nords get some insults hurled their way by the Thalmor, at the very least.
But if your character is a member of a custom race? Nothing. Nada. Niente. Nichts. Nič. Suddenly everyone is perfectly okay with you. Which is perfectly fine for a while, but after some time you start missing even the blatant racist insults. And what's even worse, some mods will actually check for your race. So what happens there? The mod doesn't work correctly for you or even breaks, that's what happens.
This is where this mod comes in. Just like the original Race Compatibility - Dialog Changes by DetectiveToaster for the original Skyrim, this is an addon for Race Compatibility mod by TMPhoenix. This adds extra racial checks into the dialogue where needed - basically, it makes it possible for your unique character to be discriminated against as well, and with patches resolves the problem of modded quests breaking if they check for vanilla races (one example is boss encounter in Rielle from Beyond Skyrim: Bruma, who has dialogue checks for all playable races) or simply just adding back some modded racism. Because who doesn't like racism? ... I do hope you realize this was sarcasm.
