Not much to say on this one but WOW, looks great and for a better idea of what this does I'll just quote the Dev
Quote:This mod adds all my races to Oblivion
The one that was not available anymore is
also included. I made new normal maps for
the old races, so they should look a little
better, they still use the same textures.
All races use my new specular map for more realistic skin.
Why a compilation?
- Easier to (un)install, one meshes and textures folder for
9 races.
- Makes it easier for me to add new races, because
hairstyles and eyes are already available.
- Relatively smaller filesize (Comparision: Moon Elves and
Deep Elves = 120MB, 2 races, Compilation = 198MB, 9
races.
All races have their own attributes, skill
bonuses and abilities. I spent quite some time doing
research about the races, to find out what would be the
best fitting attributes, skill bonuses and abilities No
vanilla abilities are being used.
Most of my old races were not really useful to play the
game because of the default attributes and no bonuses and
abilities, I did not care about it because I don't play the
game anymore.
Now you can use every race to actually play the game.

Some races have a male version, but I don't like them. I
don't like how they look and I won't try to make them
better because I don't use them.
The following races are included:
==========
Race:
==========
Moon Elf
The most common of the elven subraces on Faerun are the moon elves. Thay have fair skin, sometimes tinged with blue, and hair of silver-white, black, or blue; humanlike colors are somewhat rare. Their eyes are blue or green, with gold flecks.
Female: 3 face textures, 2 headmeshes
Male: 1 face texture, 1 headmesh
The Deep Elves are an elven race who long ago fled the overworld to live in darkness underground. There they developed their mental powers, evolving a natural gift for all forms of magic (including necromancy and earth magic), and adapted physically to their new environment, becoming shorter and weaker than other elves and losing all colouration. They are poor at hand-to-hand combat but excellent at fighting from a distance.
Female: 3 face textures, 2 headmeshes
Male: 1 face texture, 1 headmesh
Abilities:
==========
Fire Resistance
Fire Gaurdian
Blaze

Race:

Drow
Drows are elves, their most notable feature is the black skin and their white hair. They are typically elven in appearance, other then their color. Drows live underground, in caverns as the Underdark. They have well developed infravision, due to the lack of light, but they tend to be very intolerant of sun- or magical light. They do not fight well under such circumstances and rather avoid them.
Female: 2 face textures, 2 headmeshes
Male: 2 face texture, 1 headmesh
Abilities:
==========
Infravision
Dancing Light
Darkness
Faerie Fire
==========
Race:
==========
Dryad
The dryads are very closely associated with trees and each dryad has a particular tree with which she herself is closely linked. The dryads live close to these trees but they do not live in the tree. Dryads are very peaceful and usually known to be very shy.
Abilities:
==========
Gaurdian of Nature
Nature's Power
Charm
Tree Stride

Race:

Day Walker
Day Walkers are the strongest kind of Vampires. They have the powers of Vampires but none of their weknesses. They can
also use blood for special powers.
Vampires are beings who subsist by feeding on the blood of living creatures regardless of them being undead or a living person. Only during the night vampires are active, because they are vulnerable to sunlight. Because they are only active at night they have a pale skin. Same as the Day Walkers they can use blood for special powers.
Abilities:
==========
Nightvision
Shroud of Darkness
Blackout
Fear the Dark
==========
Race:
==========
Night Elf
Night Elves are one of the oldest humanoid races on Azeroth. Thousands of years ago schism occurred between the ruling Highborne class of Elf mages and the rest of the population. Following the intervention of some Elven heroes and a group of warriors transported from the future, the night elf forces succeeded in preventing the Highborne from allowing the Burning Legion to permanently enter Azeroth, though the planet was shattered in the process. The cataclysm not only destroyed the magical Well of Eternity from which the elves drew their power but also most of the rest of the continent, resulting in a vast ocean separating the continents of Kalimdor, Eastern Kingdoms and Northrend.
