showracemenu command and hidden stats

[xleileix]

I used Showracemenu on my Khajiit at lvl 27 or so, just to change her skin/fur color. I had to reset/re-apply a couple of cosmetic options like warpaint but otherwise I didn't see any changes. Her skills and perks all remained the same. Her health, magicka and stamina all stayed the same. I figured it was because I didn't actually change her race -but it all worked out quite nicely.

 

People tend to have different results with what happens to their stats after showracemenu. There's defnitely a correlation to race changing. Looking back over what I wrote, although I said I didn't change my character's race, that's not entirely accurate- I did so temporarily. Basically I went orc --> dark elf to add features such as a dark elf skintone to her --> back to orc, close the console and I then had to manually re-apply and fix stats. So possibly even if you don't "save" a race change, a temporary one during showracemenu triggered it.

 

Also it does seem that some things such as make up and warpaint reset when you open showracemenu. Skintone also resets in my case. There just really needs to be a mod that let's us change appearance legitimately instead of mucking around with console.
