Outside of the CS, you just cannot do those things due to there being no scripting functions that control it. Even if some functions were made, changing an NPC's race, appearance, or gender would crash the game if that NPC is in a loaded cell, and becomes loaded before the actor respawns or is no longer being held in ram. Furthermore, most NPC conversations are linked to name, race, gender values, so changing those could lead to broken dialogues. The dialogue issue still exists if you make changes in the CS, but is less likely to be a serious issue.

 

As for changing actor stats, there really isn't any good way to add that kind of thing to a mod without having a few dozen spell effects or a complicated menu system. Console is usually the best way to go.

okay thank you.

 

whats the codes to change npc skills and attributes.

 

thank you :)

To change their skills and attributes in the CLI (command line), just press the ` key (located left of the 1 key and above the tab key), while in this view a typing cursor will appear at the bottom of the screen, using your mouse, click on the npc you want to change (must be looking at npc in game to click on them), their name and ID code will appear at the top center of the screen, if this is the right person, just type this into the CLI:

 

setav [skill/attribute] [what you want to set it as]

 

For example: setav blade 100

 

That example will set the NPC's Blade skill to level 100, Master
