New to Morrowind... Please Help.

[Maquissar]

To sum it up, with the default key configuration:

 

W or S + Left Mouse Button = Forward thrust.

A or D + Left Mouse Button = Slash.

(Neutral) + Left Mouse Button = Overhead attack.

 

Please note that if you move diagonally (e.g. W+A+ Left Mouse Button, or S+D+ Left Mouse Button) you will perform an overhead attack.

 

I personally use the "always do best attack option" only when I am wielding a spear, because overhead attacks or slashes not only do very little damage, but feel unrealistic. If I am using any other kind of weapon, I turn the option off and, in combat, I use all kinds of attack. You might do less damage than with the "Always do best attack option", but it is certainly more fun.

 

As for the crashes... I don't know, maybe there's a conflict between two of your mods or something like that. Does any of those plugins have anything to do with healing potions? However, reinstalling is always a safe choice.

I am amazed and appreciate the kind feedback on this forum, thanks again.

 

I don't think any of the mods were specific to using the healing potions, yet they might have been effected somehow.

 

I am restarting the game from scratch with only the mods that I am very interested in.

 

Banking

Farming

Housing

Stock Market

Partners

 

Based on these selections, what might you recommend for the best housing mod. I am looking for a place to call that will allow me to store my items and rearrange furniture and the like.

 

Hmmmm... come to think of it. Does Morrowind allow you to have furniture and items of this sort?

 

Thanks again for the help.

 

Sincerely,

Munkie!

you cannot purchase furniture, but you can add it in with the CS.

 

As for best housing mod, there have been many debates on this. I would say use Abu Manor for the time being, and when you have a lot of money get the PMB.

I don't think that there's need for a housing mod. During the game, unless you roleplay a complete pacifist, you will eventually kill someone who lives in a city. After you do, you can take his house over and live there. And some factions give houses as rewards once you get a high rank.

Remember, when you reinstall, do it in this order: Morrowind, Tribunal, Bloodmoon, the latest Bloodmoon patch - THEN the mods.

 

I would recommend some of these mods as well. NPC Replace and Better Bodies are both VITAL for not being blinded by some of Vvardenfell's various visages. Complete Morrowind adds a lot of of diversity to your character, and the Dremora Drop 2.0 mod is very useful.

Just wondering, does the Xbox version offer access to Xbox: Live (not for multi-player capabilities as I've read and learned it's impossible) for the possibility to download mods or is this exclusively for the PC version. I know some features are for the PC version only and am just wondering if this is one of them.
