LEGENDARY EDITION ALSO EXISTS

It works a bit differently, but achieves almost the same result.
WHAT IT DOES
When I started playing Skyrim, I felt like heights for vanilla races could fit the lore better. Make more sense.
Back in the Morrowind/Oblivion days I used to have mods correcting that aspect. I tried to find a Skyrim mod that would make the same changes, but all of them had some issues (children, vampires, common mistakes, unfitting values for some races). So I decided to create a mod of my own. I went over the heights of every playable vanilla race and made changes to most of them.
Vanilla playable races are affected, including vampires. My mod doesn't require Unofficial Patch, but it includes all its changes.
Children are untouched - their height is mostly affected by their age so there is no point correcting anything there.
You may notice Astrid is unusually told for a Nord, having a height of 1.0600 - though it's unexplained why, she's unique this way, so I decided to leave her this tall.
Table below shows vanilla and modded values:

CONFLICTS
This mod will conflict with any mod that edits the same races, regardless what is changed in them.
Still, my mod doesn't edit all races. Look at the table above. If the value for a given row is unchanged, then it's also untouched in my mod.
