Star Wars Races (Expanded)
This is a collection of 45 animated Star Wars races and a handful of non-animated races. Different iterations of this mod have made their rounds for a while and this is my attempt to get all the races working correctly. While I do not yet know all of the original authors of the content this mod contains, I do now know of one: alan139731. So a big thank you goes out to him, content creators like him are the ones that make modding worthwhile.
His original content (plus even more races!) can be found here:

If any other content in this mod was made by you and would like acknowledgement, or if you want me to pull it out of the mod, please let me know. I totally understand and it was never my intent to step on toes. I just saw a ridiculous amount of amazing stuff languishing inside the prior versions of this mod and made it my mission to bring it to life so the community could enjoy.
So this is my attempt at doing just that. Please have patience if something (or everything) turns out to be busted.
As it stands, all the races and factions are in two race categories (I’m not sure how to add more). Per my screenshot, I can scroll down to see all the races listed, has Paradox fixed that on their own yet or is it one of my UI mods? Regardless, if you can only access 16 races per category you will be missing out.
Races/Faction are listed alphabetically.

===========================================================================
And one more thing, since you seem to be reading all of this: the Mandalorians are not a finished product. I have done my best to get that faction in working order by taking a set of Sith Empire helmets and co-opting them for the Mandalorians. I figured they’d be close enough to pass muster if someone really wants to play them.
Anyhow, that’s it. I hope this mod works and you enjoy it.
