One issue I have had with MGSO is that a certain table mesh is messed up, looking at it in the console it had the name "furn_de_r_table_03". To fix it I went into meshes/f/ and renamed the "furn_de_table_03" mesh to "furn_de_table_03BAK" to see if it would fix it and the issue was resolved and the table appears now, so maybe an improved mesh was corrupt or something and removing the mesh causes the game to load the default table mesh.

I am not sure if anyone else is having that issue but that's what I did to fix it in my game.

I think this was my problem too, I didn't think to use the console but after doing what you did my missing tables seem to have been solved. Thanks!

Is it possible to tie particular music to particular locations or types of location? For example, if I want one of the tracks that can play in Dwemer ruins to be Robo's theme from CT, or for Sixth House bases to only play disco? I know you can add stuff with no trouble to the general playlists, just wondering if you can specify things at all.

You can do it, but it requires creating a mod where you write your own script that uses the streammusic command. You then attach it to an activator and put it in every cell you want to play a specific file in the Construction Set. This guy has all the details on how to do it.

Thanks for that, not really worth the effort for too many places but I might tinker with it.

In Caldera there's a house called Ghorak Manor that has the best merchant in the game. Go find him and you won't be poor for much longer. :)

And yeah, my month-long Morrowind binge led to a whole new appreciation for the quest compass. Who the hell cares if it's "immersion-breaking," it's better than crawling around the same acre of land for an hour because you can't find the entrance to the tomb you're looking for.

Yeah it does. And although I wouldn't say it's as good as vanilla content it's still probably the closest a mod can get.

I'd actually argue some of the settlements, at least, are better than vanilla ones. Places like Firewatch are amazing, and Necrom is seriously mindblowing. I can't wait to see the new Mournhold when the next release arrives.

On Xbox I remember just levitating and taping my analog stick for half an hour.

This time on PC I think I'm going to do it legit, on foot. :getin:

Last time I played through I did my first Temple character and I did both the pilgrimage and this quest on foot. Felt awesome when I was done, it made so much sense after the fact as I/Nevos looked back and saw it as a formative experience that really helped him grow.

Some of the later Tribunal quests give great rewards, but on top of that you can hilariously break the 'Sneak into Baar Dau' MQ quest. Because at a high enough rank all the Ordinators are your bitches so you can just stroll on in, take the keys to whatever you want, and get poo poo done.

Plus there's some mod out there I had that adds more faction benefits. So I took an Ordinator with me to some Bosmer who had been extremely discourteous when I was a level 2 scrub, had her arrested and dragged to the Ministry of Truth, accused her of heresy, proclaimed her guilty without trial by dint of my position, and had her burned at the stake.

Modded Morrowind is the best videogame.

Upon starting Morrowind, I get a box stating "One or more plugins could not find the correct versions of the master files they depend on...". I'm not certain if this is typical or if I have made a mistake during installation.

Always happens, nothing to worry about.

quote:

Ignoring this, I can still enter the game. However, I encounter an bug in-game wherein nearby NPCs automatically enter into dialogue with me without any input from the user. It happens constantly so long as NPCs are nearby.

All/many NPCs? Some do initiate dialog themselves, but it shouldn't be very many of them. I don't know what mod might be making it happen so much more.

quote:

Leveling seems like it may also be bugged - the bar indicates 0/32000, even after leveling some primary skills. If memory serves, Morrowind's leveling system was 1/10, right?

I believe that's due to Galsiah's Character Development, which changes how character growth happens and removes levels per se. You'll still gain them automatically as you progress so that leveled lists don't get borked but your stats and stuff will change as your skills improve, rather than on gaining a level and resting.

Alchemy is there to facilitate breaking the game. You can brew potions and sell them for absurd amounts of cash, or make potions that improve your ability to make potions, until you can make potions that give you 40000000 strength for 8575693785903754948 seconds. Potions with ill effects are pretty much useless but can, for some reason, be sold for a lot of money.

It should be emphasized that these figures are not at all ridiculous. Once you break the game hard enough you will be able to potions with arbitrarily powerful effects, and which will turn you into a living god for essentially as long as you see fit. I once gained such strength that hitting anything with anything instantly broke the weapon. Even something like Skull Crusher with 8000/8000 durability would break in a single hit. I imagine, were the game capable of modelling it, I could have simply struck the foot of Red Mountain and buried Dagoth Ur as it collapsed.

One time, I rolled a character. Nothing special about him in any way, just an average Dunmer with the sorts of skills a peasant might have.

I took him up to Kuul and using his small amount of gold, rented a shack there thanks to the rent homes mod. He had little more than that, a chitin knife, and the clothes on his back. I was also playing with a variety of mods that make things harder, for instance you lose combat efficacy when low on health as well as stamina, and you have to eat food to not die. So I took most of my clothes off, dived into the water, and became a pearl diver.

I spent several in-game months doing this, killing fish, and swimming around the region. I gained few levels and made less money.

It was a lot of fun, hope you enjoyed my Morrowind story.

Yeah, I'm a patient dude who liked the way "fast travel" mechanics were folded in to Morrowind. Small gondolas and skiffs for navigating between smaller, sleepier locales, big boats for busier destinations, Mages Guild teleportation, Silt Striders for travel across land, and (with a fair amount of work) you could blow the dust off the Propylon Index and get instantaneous teleportation working. The whole network felt believable and natural....nothing beat Scrolls of Icarian Flight for the ultimate fast travel, however.

Yeah I adore Morrowind's travel system because it all makes so much sense within the world. You have a massive variety of options for how to go about it, and once you know your way around you get to most places fairly easily with just a handful of gold or a couple of spells. I understand that's not for everyone, and I also understand it's not something any of us would want in every game, but for Morrowind I always felt it worked perfectly.

Tamriel Rebuilt has updated to version 16.09. Read more here

Since this bears bleating all across the internet all over again and again, Tamriel Rebuilt no longer contains its own asset file. Instead, you will need to download Tamriel_Data. Please be prepared!

Make sure to read the information about Tamriel_Data and register both BSAs in your Morrowind.ini.

Register both Tamriel_Data BSAs! Both PT_Data and TR_Data need to be registered! Both! Not just one! Both!

If you don't update and register both BSAs, you will encounter missing meshes and icons, actor animation class errors, and Morrowind will choke on the error messages and crash.

So here's a question, I went to dutifully register both the BSAs and found that an additional one is already in there, from MGSO I presume. So what do? Do I just add 1 to the TR BSAs? I feel like that would break poo poo but I dunno. Any advice appreciated.

Added a ton of new images to my Uvirith's Legacy 4 WIP album on Imgur: http://m.imgur.com/a/eU7c9

After doing the new bathrooms, I spent like an hour making a mesh for a poop stick. And then after placing the poop stick, I realized there was no way to tell your poop stick from anyone elses. So I wrote a non-quest where your apprentice accidentally uses your poop stick, because it wasn't labled, so he buys you a new poop stick that says, "Property of the Archmagister. Do not Touch on Pain of Death." So of course I had to spend another hour retexturing my poop stick into a fancier poop stick with that poo poo actually written on it in gold lettering.

So dammit, I turned it into a weapon to make all that sleep-deprive-induced bullshit worthwhile. It does no damage, but does a demoralize cast-on-strike, because who wouldn't run from someone brandishing a possibly poop-covered sponge-on-a-atick.

Elder Scrolls games often suffer from poor encounter design due to the nature of the scaling. One of the things Dark Souls does right is it deliberately designs each individual encounter

It gets exponentially harder to design encounters when you're in such an open world, though. I think it's less scaling and more that you can't easily account for a level 3 warrior, a level 19 stealth archer, and a level gently caress mage, all with their own racial and birthsign powers, items, etc.. So they end up taking a broader path.

I don't think any TES game has particularly bad combat. I like Morrowind and Skyrim. Oblivion does suffer massively from scaling but second-to-second, running around smashing dudes with a hammer is fun enough.

Some parts, yes. Not a huge amount, though. TR is big. I'll repeat that.

TR is an enormous project. Over a decade ago I was making fun of them on the Bethesda forums I think, saying they'll fizzle out in three months. But what I see now impresses me beyond words. I hope the project reaches v1.0 - the designs, landscapes, and fleshed out areas look fantastic. They have my full support.

Yeah when I first heard about it I thought the same we all did - that it's ridiculous and never going to happen.

Cut to a loving decade later. It's a slow burn but they're not stopping, it seems. It's also vast, even if only part is actually fleshed out. At this point I'd be more surprised if the project fell apart.

Out of curiosity, how crashy is Morrowind on Windows 10 if you have it modded modestly? With retextures, some gameplay enhancements, Tamriel Rebuilt, etc. but no giant overhauls or anything.

I'm playing Oblivion for some reason right now and it crashes all the loving time.

Stable as gently caress, in my experience. The only time I can expect crashes is if I've installed something incorrectly and/or it's a buggy mod. Otherwise I've put a couple hundo hours into Morrowind over the last couple of years and can't recall any crashes (which doesn't mean they never happened but I have a finely attuned memory for Bethesda lovely programming so there can't have been many).
