Don't like how your Argonian or Khajiit turns pale and grimy when they turn into a vampire? Me neither.
""----describe-----""
I didn't like how the character's scales/hair became lighter and dirtier when he turned into a vampire, so I set out to change that. For the mer races, there's a massive vampire overhaul, but for the Argonians and Khajiits, I saw very little of it. :( There is a mod on oldrim that does the same thing, but it doesn't forward some of SSE's logging information, so I did that. Note that this only affects skin tone and dirt - your character will still have regular vampire eyes and fangs.
I had to add "Raptor's" to "mod/filename" because yelling at me said it was already in their database. OK,.
""----Install-----""
It's best to install it using a Mod Manager like Mod Manager 2, or if you're a manual modder, it's best to put it into Skyrim's Data folder. Only one file is installed; you don't need both.
""----compatibility-----""
Both versions of this mod edit the ArgonianRaceVampire and KhajiitRaceVampire records. Any mods that edit these contents are incompatible. Sacrosanct, Morningstar, Better Vampires 8.3 and WICO should work fine. I've included a version for people using EnaiSiaion's Dauntless - Races of Skyrim. Install it later. If you need a patch, let me know and I'll fix it if I can!

This mod is complete, but I do plan on doing a remap or two for the Argonian and Khajiit vampire eyes in the near future, so stay tuned.... no promises. I haven’t done any art in years.

I'm not a fan of how my characters' scales/fur get lighter and dirty when they change into a vampire, so I set out to change this. There are plenty of vampire overhauls for mer races, but I rarely see any for Argonians and Khajiits.:( There's a mod on oldrim that does the same thing this one does, but it does not forward some of SSE's record info, so I made this. Note that this only affects the skin tone and dirt -- your character will still get the regular vampire eyes and fangs. View the images to see the difference between beast race vampires with and without this mod.
I had to add "Raptor's" to the mod/file names because yelled at me that it already exists in their database. Okay,.

Preferably install with a mod manager like Mod Organizer 2, or drop it into your Skyrim's Data folder if you're a manual modder. Only install ONE file; you do not need both.
»»———— COMPATIBILITY ————-««
Both versions of this mod edit the ArgonianRaceVampire and KhajiitRaceVampire records. Any mod that edits those will be incompatible. Sacrosanct, Morningstar, Better Vampires 8.3, and WICO should work just fine. I have provided a version for folks who use EnaiSiaion'sImperious - Races of Skyrim; load it AFTER Imperious. If you need a patch for something, let me know, and I'll get it done if I can!

This mod is finished, but I do plan to make a retexture or two for Argonian and Khajiit vampire eyes in the near future, so stay tuned for that... probably. No promises. I haven't done any art in years.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
