UPDATE 4/11/24:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- updated to 1.5. because the dependencies and file paths have changed from the final 1.4 version, the main Steam download DOES NOT INCLUDE 1.4 files. the finalized 1.4 files can now be found here in .zip form: https://github.com/guy1762/SWKotOR-Project-1.4-Final-Build/tree/main
- thanks to Kaitorisenkou, new code has been added to create StyleTag genes that add tattoos *and* new code that allows for colored tattoos to properly show up on pawns! as a result...
- one new xenotype has been added: Pantorans!
- two xenotypes have been updated to have tattoos: Togruta and Mirialans!
- updates: Zabraks and Iridonians have been given a makeover with a new horned crown gene and facial indents for Iridonians. Falleen now have a ridged spine gene, and Jawas now have extra-big and extra-bright eyes!
- Sith Purebloods and Tusken Raiders from Sovereign's Rimwars mods have migrated to this mod!

UPDATE 2/25/24:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- the Miraluka xenotype has been substantially reworked: if Vanilla Psycasts Expanded is loaded, their normal 'blind' gene will be replaced by the new Eyeless Seer gene which covers up the baked-in eye graphic and grants a psycast ability to temporarily boost vision to 80% for 24 hours! (it should be noted that blindfolds or anything that reduces the 'sight' capacity will still nullify this bonus, not able to come up with a better solution atm)
- additionally, both Miraluka and Yoders have been given a new Natural Force-User gene (also requiring VPE) which gives all pawns with the gene a Level 1 Psylink!

UPDATE 11/10/23:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- added 8 new xenotypes: Hutts, Quarrens, Niktos, Bith, Aqualish, Lasats, Mimbanese, and Kubaz
- overhauled graphics for Wookiees and Klatoonians
- changed the body size genes to be cosmetic only, this should hopefully make the small xenotypes less fragile
- removed the Biotech Expansion requirement. the three whole genes I used from it have been replaced with new or borrowed ones using B&S code
- moved all genes added by this mod (except hair and skin colors) to a new category
- added a bunch of new 'fixed' eye genes: these now scale properly with bigger/smaller pawns since they don't use vanilla Biotech's jank eye scaling, but unfortunately they will not be overwritten by the bionic eye graphic if your pawn has one installed. the bionic eye graphic would've been broken anyways, however, so it doesn't really make a difference




This mod adds many different alien races from Star Wars as xenotypes.

I've also added a handful of genes that affect a pawn's lifespan. I... uh... don't actually know how well these work, or if they have any substantial in-game effect at all, but they do let me set my wookiee pawns' age to more lore-accurate numbers. These were made by simply cranking up the LifespanFactor stats to relevant multipliers. If y'all encounter any problems with it please let me know and I'll uh... try and do something about it.

This mod requires Integrated Genes and Big and Small + Prerequisites Framework. Major shoutout to Integrated Genes for having, like, the perfect list of additional genes for this mod to be possible.

~~~~~~~~~~
IMPORTANT: PawnKinds are currently not included, meaning these won't normally spawn in game. I am working on several faction mods that will utilize these, but until that's ready for release, use this mod: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2891975564
~~~~~~~~~~
This mod adds a patch for Humanoid Alien Races that fixes a bug where the "bald" hairtype doesn't work.
~~~~~~~~~~





I've tried to re-create these to the best of my ability, but honestly a lot of the profiles for these alien races are very... poorly elaborated on. I noticed there's a disproportionate amount of 'near-human which is good at melee combat' species in the lore, and hopefully I've balanced them out well enough so that they don't feel *too* samey. You're free to edit the XenotypeDefs yourself if you aren't satisfied with mine, I don't mind.


Upcoming aliens:
- Gungans
- Selkath
- Mon Calamari
- Gran
- Ithorians
- Lepi
- Rattataki/Nightsisters
- Zabrak Nightbrothers
- Massassai

and more!
