Making npcs treat my custom race as a standard race?

[NocturneNight]

Is there an easy way to, for example, make NPCs treat my Lineage Elf as a Wood Elf? I.e. getting the greeting "Hail, Wood Elf" and the elf-specific dialouge in combat, etc?

OBSE function 'SetRaceAlias', unless you want to mess with each dialogue. The NPC overhaul+custom race mod XEO uses that to make duplicated races to be recognized as vanilla races.

Yeah, um... How exacly do I do that? xD Do I need to go into the CES and make a new script? Or? *Confused*

You need a quest that starts with the game and a quest script. The script would be like:

scriptname 'Whateveryouwant'

begin GameMode
   	SetRaceAlias (Custom Race) (Vanilla Race)
end

I don't know if there's better way. As I said, XEO uses such script, so I suggest you to check it.

Hum, alright. Thanks again.
