Change NPC race in GECK

[mpja5678]

Hello Nexus forums,

 

When i change the race of an NPC in GECK it does not alter the in game NPC .

 

I checked the tab "can be any race" as it seams appropriate but still nothing happens in game. What else do i need to change for my edit to take effect ? (my load order is fine as other edits i make show up with no problems).

 

Thanks.

Choosing "Can be any race" is working. The NPC does display a race. If you want the NPC to be a particular race, you need to choose a race, otherwise the game will choose a race. In your instance, the game chose the default race of the NPC.

 

Changing an NPC's race is easier using FO3Edit.

Thanks M48A5, for the reply to a mod question for an over a decade year old game.

 

I shall look at f03edit tonight.

 

PS i had selected the actual race in GECK and only checked the "can be any race" after finding the edit did not appear in game.
