Help with teh Construction Set

Sure thing pal ( but im not that good at this stuf myself )

 

 

Let's start easy whit a small house in Seyda Neen.

 

 

Load your TES, at the top line find datafiles.

Mark Morrowind whit an x. DO NOT set it as the active file !

Press ok, now you get this "you haven't selected an active file message" just press ok. Let it load ( takes some time )

 

Now

Pick the littel screen at the button, where all the cells aren listed. Scroll down to one of the Seyda Neen cells and dubbel click whit LMB.

Now you should have a nice look at the town.

 

Press A ( lights on/off )

Find a free spot ( i recomend in the middel of the street for this mod )

You move whit the arrows, of hold space down while dragging the mouse.

The mousewheel zooms.

 

Now pick the left screen, press the button marked "static"

I can't remember the exat name, but look for something like this

ex_nordhouse_ ??

 

Click and drag the house to your free spot. press the F key, makes it fall to the ground.

Space + drag moves you round the house

Shift + drag changes the angel

RMB let's you rotate the object

If you dubbelclick whit LMB, you can finetune. try the X,Y,Z values to see what they does.

 

When your happy whit the location, press the "door" button

Look for something like this

nord_door_ ??

Click and drag, use F, use finetuning to place the door on your house.

 

 

Now would be a good time to start a new game, and have a look.

So save your mod, (upper line under files ), find a name eg. first mod.

 

If you dont have a new building in the game, i forgot something :D

 

 

Something like this you wanted ?

ops just forgot...

 

When you lunch Morrowind, select "data files" mark your new mod whit an x. press ok. press play.

 

I really need to get some sleep, it's middel in the night here.

 

 

But i you are happy whit you new house, start TES up again.

 

This time select your new mod as active file

 

Add windows, chimny, doorframe.

Your find it all under "static"

Just try all the stuf you think looks intresting.

If you put something in you dont want, press Ctrl + X ( deletes it )

If you want more than one, press Ctrl + D ( copy )

 

This should be enough for some hours of modding.

 

Later we can do the indoor.

 

enjoy ;)

Im sry everyone. I have followed your instructions percisely and even when the render screen says a name like "Ashlands 0,0" it is still grey (like the color of this background) I have no idea what is wrong. My computer is brand new and it is top of the line so i dont see why the computer would be the problem. If anyone has anymore info on this, please help.

I have an idea maybe why this is happening to me. I have BLoodmoon (it and Morrowind are updated with the latest patches) and I have many plugins. Maybe its because one of them is messing with the system, or im not loading one of them that Im supposed to. All i do is load the Morrowind.esm and thats it. Maybe thats why...... still help if u can. Thankyou.
