Setting up Morrowind for my Girlfriend

[nintendoeats]

(Preface: I have played and run mods for both Oblivion and Skyrim, but have never touched Morrowind)

 

My Girlfriend played scads of Skyrim, and after telling her about it she said that she will give BLOODY Path of Exile a break to play Morrowind. I told her that I would buy the GOTY edition off GOG and assemble some mods to make it a bit more friendly, and man am I over my head. I've put together a list and downloaded them, but I was hoping for some feedback. Firstly, I'm wondering if I missed anything that would make the game less frustrating without compromising stability. Secondly, I would like to know if there are any conflicts or install orders I need to know about. These all seem to be ubiquitous mods, so I don't think there will be but it would be nice to get some confirmation before I spend four hours beating my head against her laptop.

And I will ask her if she wants Tamriel Rebuilt.

 

 

By the way, she has a GTX 950M, i5 4210M, and 8 GB of RAM on 64-bit Windows 7. I do really appreciate any assistance you can provide.

IIRC, latest version of MCP includes the 4GB patch.

 

For MGSO read the OP of this for various fixes: Morrowind Overhaul - Sounds & Graphics 3.0 Thread #7

 

I'd suggest the Unofficial Patch 1.6.6 - http://www.theassimilationlab.com/forums/files/file/1060-previous-patches-unofficial-morrowind-patch/

 

Use mlox for load order and highlighting conflicts etc. (version of that and other utilities in MGSO bundle is way out of date) - http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43001/?

 

Have a look at this list, there could be some gameplay mods on here which add features your girlfriend may appreciate - https://web.archive.org/web/20120320055600/http://www.yacoby.net/es/mw/modlists/oblivion/

Mods should all be available on MMH as the original links are probably all to PES.
