Seeing as how the game is like 9 years old I had doubt that anybody would be going to the technical section part of this forum much. One of the race mods instructions is "To install the plugin, unzip the files into the Bethesda Softworks directory", so I did just that, clicked the .esp, loaded up the game and it wasn't available. Next up i manually extracted the meshes and textures folders to meshes and textures but that didn't work either. Finally i Took every texture and manually placed them in textures and took every mesh and manually placed them in meshes but STILL it didn't work. This is the hardest to mod game I've ever had, what's even worse is that when i extract to Bethesda/Morrowind/data it extracts to an app-data version of that address which is invisible and incredibly hard to access! Any ideas? :confused: EDIT Well I suddenly had a epiphany/flashback and realized that when i first installed Morrowind back in the day, it wouldn't work on the C, drive so I put my current Morrowind in the C drive and now it works. It's amazing that I hadn't seen this problem anywhere on the internet, sigh.

I've installed a few custom races but when I get off the ship to talk to that guy that asks you what race you are, none of the custom races show up. I'm 100% sure I must have installed at least one of them right so it can't be that. I've also tried "enableracemenu" but they didn't show up in that either. Finally I saw something called the "Custom race fix" with like 175,000 downloads but when i put that .esp in my folder my game said it wasn't an .esp. Any idea what's wrong?

I'm looking to get back into Morrowind because i absolutely loved that game when it first came out, but I need a good up to date load order with all the latest graphics mods, etc. All help is greatly appreciated :D

I've always thought that magic could be so much more customizable. For an example think of fire damage, it comes out in the form of either a fire ball or a fire touch but it would be great if they could make it possible for -Fire cone, -Fire beam (think "Agannazar's Scorcher" from Baldurs Gate) -Fire shield (That will cause fire damage to enemies that get to close to the user) -Etc Also have fun at Bethesda Studios :D

I've spent a while messing around with the ingame sneak values that I could make my footsteps louder (So if i were to be walking 1mm behind somebody jumping up and down they would "detect" me) but no matter what i change I can't get them to detect my footsteps. The formula is SUPPOSED to be "Movement Sound = ( fSneakBootWeightBase + fSneakBootWeightMult * armor weight)" but i changed all those values to be incredibly high but it makes no difference. Any ideas what's wrong?

I originally had full specs on for NV and so i turned off anti aliasing and antistropic filtering but it made no difference. I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 so i don't know whether that would have "adaptive antialiasing" (the catalyst control panel is specific to radeon only?). Thanks for the reply btw :)

Could somebody please create a fix for the bug where rocks (the ones classified under "Object LOD Fade") clip in and out of the mountains in a jittery/stuttery way even when not moving?

Is there some sort of fix for the bug where rocks (the ones classified under "Object LOD Fade") clip clip in and out of the mountain in a jittery/stuttery way even when not moving? If there isn't a fix then if anybody knew what caused this bug, I could try and fix it myself and then release the fix as a mod. Thank you for all replies

When i look at distant mountains they look all jittery with rocks popping in and out of them. Also when i scope in with a high zoom rifle and look at distant grass it jitters around. is this a bug or is there a mod to fix this?

How could I make a Fallout New Vegas weapon that aims down sights using the old Fallout 3 reticule and vice versa? Also would it be possible to change the reticule or even make it relative to the minimum spread?

Thanks for the reply, I'll give it a try although I think I may as well start a new game and then visit the NPC just to be 100% sure. I'll post the results when I'm done. EDIT - Also note that i can change the NPCs name and add specific weapons and armors that aren't in a leveled item box to his inventory and he will have them. It's weird because the leveled item box I'm using works for some NPCs but not others even if I don't start a new game. EDIT EDIT - Yay it worked thanks for giving me the idea :D

I've been trying to edit a specific NPC at Nelson (a "LegionRaiderHRifle") and I add a leveled item box containing armor and then remove his old armor. I've also made sure that the template inventory is turned off. When I go in game this NPC has the same old armor even though it isn't in his GECK inventory or even in his templates inventory (and this isn't a mistake in the leveled item box). Please submit advice if you have any and as always, help is greatly appreciated :D

Thanks for replying If DPS was the only problem then the pistol would win so i can rule that out as the sole problem. It might be the no ammo thing but i could swear that I've killed NPC's that use weapons even if they don't have ammo for that weapon, but i could be wrong. Also I'm not actually nerfing the NCR, my mod is to massively boost all the NPCs in the game by giving them more unique and powerful weapons so that they are harder to kill because i reckon its way to easy to kill people even on insane mode. The 10mm pistol is just a test, they wont equip anything. I'll try giving them a 10mm bullet and see if t works. EDIT Yay it worked! Thanks for the help and good luck with all your future mod projects :D

I also have this problem so I'll bump this

Here's the situation - I've changed the contents of the "CondNVServiceRifle" leveled item and replaced the service rifles with a 10mm Pistol. I save the changes and then go into game to see a NCR trooper with a knife equipped. I stand at a far distance and shoot him, and instead of taking out the 10mm pistol to attack me at long range, he runs all the way up to me with a knife. The question is either why did this happen OR What criteria needs to be fulfilled for one weapon to be equipped over another Help is greatly appreciated
