I think it's safe to say that the problem doesn't lie there. Try just giving in and reinstalling. If that doesn't work, make a post to the official forums -- this may be a common problem. If you don't get a response there, it may be that you'll need to hexedit portions of Bloodmoon.esm to get rid of the snow (and thus, the error).

Mohrdechaia Posted December 12, 2004 Author Share Posted December 12, 2004 reinstalling bloodmoon (i've already done this numerous times) or uninstalling and reinstalling morrowind and tribunal as well? do you think this could be a problem with some of the mods i'm using?

Marxist ßastard Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Reinstall Morrowind as a whole. And no, this can't be a problem regarding plugins -- the problem (as far as I can tell) is that, although your executable is perfectly fine, the engine refuses to recognize the new weather types introduced with Bloodmoon (namely, snow and blizzard).

Mohrdechaia Posted December 12, 2004 Author Share Posted December 12, 2004 do i have to uninstall morrowind before reinstalling? and if so, do i only need to backup the saves folder so as not to lose my games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marxist ßastard Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Some n00btard has left very "detailed" (read: walks you through how to delete a file) instructions on how to cleanly reinstall Morrowind that he obviously ripped from Bethesda -- either that, or he refers to himself as "we" and "the technical support staff" to make himself feel important. Either way, I suggest that you follow them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
