Problems With Mods

[percypants]

I have Morrowind GOTY for steam, and i have installed a lot of graphical enhancement mods, but the ones where you just put some files into the Textures/Meshes folders don't seem to work. The ESP ones do.

I can't recall as it's been an eternity, but did Morrowind have "Archive Invalidation" as well?

And even if it didn't, what about Steam always messing up the file dates of the BSAs in this regard?

I just got morrowind goty through steam via the code in the anthology, the mgso 3.0, and a %@%$ load of mods with no problems other than the fps are suffering.

 

I'm manually installing the mods by unzipping the mods in a separate folder and copy\pasteing them their data folders and merging them without a hitch.

 

I've used texture files without esp by placeing them in their folder and copy\replaceing them which won't need and esp to take effect, and the meshes the same way if they have the same exact file name the game uses and replaces them. i've also imported meshes\textures through the tescs without the coresponding esp, but you will have to create your own esp to use them.

 

If your computer isn't giving you a copy\replace option than, the folders are not getting to the right place, or the file names aren't exactly the same as the ones the game already use without the need of an esp.
