Work in progress! Future home of a Morrowind STEP.
Q & A
Q: But we have a Morrowind Graphics Overhaul?
A: Some wish to have a more granular control over what mods they are using. MGO is/was a good one-stop solution, but it can be a bloated one to some. There was some decisions in design that I personally disagreed with (like the Demora). I created this because some mods were already going obsolete and it has some issues that won't be fixed.
How to use this guide
| Mod Name | Special Notes | Special Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| I'm a baseline mod | I note something important | |
| I'm an optional mod | I'm a dependency needed for this mod | |
| I'm a baseline choice | Choose me or the other mods next to me of the same (green) color. | |
| I'm the other baseline choice | ||
| I'm an optional choice | Choose me or the other mods next to me of the same (purple) color. | |
| I'm the other optional choice |
1. Executable Modification and Management
This is a set of utilities that modify and stand beside your Morrowind Executable. Install these in order. If you want to change features in the Morrowind Code Patch, you must run the utilities listed after the code patch again in order (except for MGE XE).
| Mod Name | Special Notes | Special Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| Morrowind | ||
| Offical Morrowind Patch | Steam and GOTY users should not use this patch. Install before you install Tribunal/Bloodmoon | No expansions installed |
| Tribunal | It is important to install Tribunal before Bloodmoon, if you have both expansions. If you have installed Bloodmoon first, Simply reinstall Bloodmoon after you install tribunal | |
| Offical Tribunal Patch | Steam and GOTY users should not use this patch. Install this before you install Bloodmoon. | Tribunal currently installed |
| Bloodmoon | ||
| Offical Bloodmoon Patch | Steam and GOTY users should not use this patch. | Bloodmoon currently installed or Tribunal and Bloodmoon are both installed |
| Morrowind Code Patch 2.1 | Place in Morrowind's root Directory before executing. Ensure that all bug fixes are enabled. It is recommended to toggle all "Mod related features" on, but its not necessary. Everything else can be up to personal preference, The utility gives great information about what each toggle does. | |
| Timeslip's Exe Optimizer 1.9 | Download latest program. Do not run it Morrowind's root directory. To use it, first manually find the Morrowind executable and press the patch button. It is not necessary to modify any settings. | |
| No CD | You must find this one on your own, you are not looking for a Morrowind.exe, but rather a patcher executable. Obviously, Steam users do not have to worry about this. This is optional. | |
| 4GB Patch | Simply find the Morrowind Executable and tell it to patch. | |
| MGE XE 0.9.10 | Just install it to the Morrowind Root Directory for now. This will also serve as a Morrowind Script Extender as well as a graphics enhancer. |
2. Fixes and Patches
This is the unoffical list of patches that fix various issues in the vanilla game. The Morrowind Code patch actually made some patches obsolete, so they will not be listed here.
| Mod Name | Special Notes | Special Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| Morrowind Patch Project 1.6.6 | Link goes to UESP. Download Version 1.6.5b (BTB), then Version 1.6.6 if you have both Expansions. Install just 1.2.2b if you do not have Bloodmoon and Tribunal. | |
| Script Tidy 2.02 | It is recommended to install "minimum impact", but you can use full treatment, if you wish. Read the readme to make your decision | Tribunal and Bloodmoon |
| Redoran Door Fix | ||
| Mesh Fix 1.2 | ||
| Texture Fix 2.0 | ||
| Texture Fix - Bloodmoon 1.1 | Bloodmoon | |
| Cave Texture Fix 1.1 | ||
| Poorly Placed Object Fix 1.2 | This mod requires patching. See This post. The link in edit number five fixes this issue. | |
| Correct UV rocks 1.0 | ||
| Telvanni Exterior UV Fix 1.1 | ||
| Ring Texture Fix | Not needed if installing Unique Finery Replacer, This mod is here for completeness. | Unique Finery Replacer is not installed |
| Longboat Fix | ||
| Illy's Solsteim Rumour Fix 1.0 | Bloodmoon |
3. Gameplay enhancement
This fixes features and enhances gameplay, but not to the point that it changes Morrowind in a drastic way.
| Mod Name | Special Notes | Special Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| Keyring | Example | MGE XE |
| Dark Brotherhood | Example | Example |
| Postponed Dark Brotherhood Attack 2.1 | Example | Example |
