Graphics - (Things you may enjoy not currently on your list)

 

1. Connary's textures - Connary <----This is not easy to find, since he has removed his texture packs from all the major hosting sites. But I believe the site that has all his textures in one rar file is Mega Upload. Do yourself a favor and fish them out. You'll be happy you did.

 

2. ATAP - Andy <---Another good texture pack. I've found that (carefully) mixing texes from various packs is best to achieve the precise look you want.

 

2. Darknut's Creature Textures - Darknut <---- I know you have Darknut on your list, but his creature texes in particular are 2nd to none.

 

4. SWG's Skies

 

5. Signy Signposts (Vvardenfell and TR 1&2) - Earth Wyrm

 

6. Vality's Bitter Coast - Vality7

 

7. Vurt's Leafy West Gash - Vurt

 

8. Phal's Sunshaft - Phal <---A sun ray shader. Not particularly easy to find, and is finicky about the other Shaders it works with. I use either HDR2 or HDR5 with it, and it's solid gold in either case imo. Requires MGE version 3.8 svn 118 or higher.

 

Weapons & Armor

 

1. Carnithus' Armamentarium - Carnithus <----widely considered the best total pack of dark-ish armors and weps made for the game, if that's your thing. It's certainly my thing.

 

2. Ultimate Knight Shop - Orry

 

3. Swords of Morrowind - Max Edwin <----Really should be called "Swords Outside of Morrowind", as it adds many unique blades found in other games, such as Dante's Alastor.

 

4. Clean Dragon Blade - Phijama <----Get it if for no other reason than to just stare at it. It's that good. Bear in mind that the sword is partially (but not fully) reflection mapped, so if you use it, you will not be able to enable the local bump lighting fix in Morrowind Code Patch because it breaks the sword's textures. This can be problematic if you have other stuff in your game that is fully reflection mapped, seeing as that code patch was made for them, but Phijama's weps prohibit you from using it. It comes down to simple choice. Phijama's weapons are all outstanding, but they all suffer from that limitation.

 

Anywho, that's just a few suggestions, but there's many other great things out there. Take a look around, and have fun :)

I see you mentioned my Rhysk, Adevnturers Guild and Great Hunt. I have my Quest Of The Week which is a new misc quest uploaded weekly. And I do like the grass mod but there is a grass mod by Ozzy for Bloodmoon which is good as well.

Thanks for the pointers...

 

MCA gives the biggest performance hit.

 

Now I'm trying to get dof shaders to work...I get blurry screens after using pkmix...hmmm

 

 

well thanks LegoMan and karasuman.

An alternative to MCA is Starfire's NPC Additions. I found it to be less heavy on resources than MCA, it doesn't add any generic NPC enemies in caves or people who attack you in town at night, and they wear vanilla equipment only so they fit in the vanilla game much better. MCA NPCs stand out.

I also forgot to mention about my mod that makes you not miss when you swing your weapon and adds regenerating magicka like in Oblivion. It makes the game not so hard.

 

Morrowind Better Gameplay

[Zaldir]

More Detailed Places - Makes many ( 8 ) towns/villages/forts look more alive with very minimal changes, so it conflicts with very few mods. :)

[GuybrushThreep]

Is this normal?

 

I started the game with no MODS enabled. Went outside Seyda Need and Saved. Then I wanted to enable them gradually mod by mod, making sure that they will work. BUT the moment I enable a single mod, and load the game, the game crashes (i.e. Illegal Operations and must be shut down).

 

Thoughts?
