REQUIREMENTS

The Skyrim Script Extender (SKSE), Version 1.7.2 (or newer) is REQUIRED to run the RaceMenu.

If you don't know how, or cannot install SKSE on your own I recommend watching:

• English SKSE Installation Video by Gopher

• German SKSE Installation Video by Frank SiriuS

RaceMenu related SKSE Plugins:

• CharGen Extension (Core included with RaceMenu 2.5 and greater)

• NetImmerse Override Standalone (Included with RaceMenu 2.0 and greater)

For ECE to RaceMenu migration see:

• CharGen Export

If you experience crashing while opening the menu please consider acquiring the optional download DisableFaceGenCache (integrated as of version 2.7+, no longer necessary). This is an SKSE plugin that disables caching of FaceGen parts that can crash your game if you have many hair/eye/brow mods installed.
