my way to Morrowind


I know you have it. You won’t miss it.

Guide Version: 0.5 (5/10/21)

links to corresponding downloads
links to my personal MCM config images

This is my load order. Many are like it but this one is mine: Philosophy on Modding

Current Guide Version: 0.5

Roadmap
0.5 Finish adding (and eliminating) mods from the google doc. Instructions here are great on a per-mod basis. However, My Way to Morrowind should not yet be considered a cohesive guide in it’s entirety. There’s still plenty of mods to go through and properly test.

1.0 The google doc is emptied. Track down conflicts, create patches, eliminate and update mods, add more by community suggestions. Find some help testing the load order to look for issues that can be reproduced. Eliminate individual textures files from mods to make everything as visually cohesive as possible. New instructions. Modding Monday videos.

1.5 Check individual meshes and textures for errors. Fix what I can. Remove what I can’t. New instructions where needed. Tutorial Tuesday videos.

2.0 Guide is fully functional and follow-able for general users. Create some consolidation patches. Touch ups. My Way to Morrowind videos.

Revisions
v0.4: I’ve announced the guide on Discord and YouTube via the COMMUNITY section. Real time being put in. Welcome = ) I’ve started adding mods from other sites to check out based on author/community suggestion. More to come…

v0.3: Going through the doc has begun. Reading descriptions. Going through POSTS sections. Adding mods to the game and trying them out. Adding them to this site along with my installation steps.

v0.2: I’ve quickly gone through every mod on Nexus. I’ve added every mod that initially looked promising to a google doc so that I can spend time going over them. Initially there are 72 doc pages.

v0.1: My Way to Morrowind has begun. Basic installation steps added.


1.0 Fresh Start


My Way supports Morrowind Game of the Year Edition
I use the GOG version as Steam‘s is a filthy N’wah



When starting a new load order I banish past modding sessions to oblivion. Left over files, that you may be unaware of, have the potential to summon annoying Dremora.


– Open Windows Explorer.
– Navigate to the Morrowind game folder.
– Double-click unins000.exe. Yes at the warning window. No when asked, Do you want to keep all saved games.



1.1 Installation



Download Morrowind


– Download Morrowind using DOWNLOAD OFFLINE BACKUP GAME INSTALLER

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind GOTY Edition


– When downloading is complete launch: setup_tes_morrowind_goty_2.0.0.7
– Agree to the pop-ups. Select Options at the Morrowind Setup window.

GOG does not have DRM. Morrowind is now yours. You own it until Red Mountain explodes.





2.0 Tools


This guide was born under the sign of the Modder. With these tools you will be shown how to weather The Blight. Venture forth without them at your own peril. Outlander’s check your expectations at the Census and Excise Office.
