Concerns about " Showracemenu" Console-command

Post » Fri May 11, 2012 7:22 pm

I've been using this command quite a few times already. I did NOT save and load in the menu, but I just clicked " OK" And renamed my character again, accepting the changes.

I'm level 10 now and so far I haven't noticed any bugs because of this. I didn't change my race, only changed minor details on my face.

I read somewhere that my magicka / Health / Stamina will be spread throughout evenly despite what I put my points into. So far I haven't noticed this happening since my health is about 150 and my stamina is 140 at level 10 which should be about normal. My main stats, Light armor, Archery and One handed and others such as sneaking, alchemy and pickpocketing hasn't been altered or lowered, it seems.

I need to know if this is really safe to use, given I don't change my race. Will there be any future implications using this, or maybe some even that I might not have noticed yet?
I'd hate to keep leveling and spending time on this character If it turns out doings this breaks something important within the game D:

Thanks!

The only effect it had on my character was I lost my racial passive ability and my current blessing. The blessing is easy enough to get back, but the racial passive requires a console command I havent figured out yet to return.

I used it once and noticed no harmful effects. Unlike Baratan I still had my racial ability (berserker rage or whatever the orc skill is called). This was only when tweaking appearances without changing race, though. If you change your race it seems that it resets all your skill levels. Since you only tweaked your appearance I doubt you'll experience any bugs or problems.

I changed only my appearance without changing my race, six or preset and I lost my racial ability. Anyone know the spell IDs for these abilities?
