Hi everyone.

I've heard a lot about Morrowind, but never played it. Anyone have a link to a detailed modding for n00bs? (i can'r bare to play it with the ancient graphics after finishing Skyrim 2 weeks ago).

I found this link

http://www.somethingfornobody.com/blog/morrowind-modding-guide/

But half of his links are broken :/

Thanks!

Last I played it there were already a bunch of mods to improve the graphics. You don't need to do any modding yourself. Each mod should tell you how to install it. Usually, it's just a matter of unzipping the file you downloaded and copying the files to the appropriate folders where you installed Morrowind.

Well, that's what i though. But for example, in the link above it says to install the "Morrowind Code Patch". When i go to Nexus, it says that it "Requires Python 2.6+ and wxPython installed", whatever the hell that is... It seems only experienced modders can fully enjoy the game :/

I haven't played it for quite a while, but from what I remember it was really easy to mod. Theirs a plethora of graphics mods with automatic installers.

(Marked as adult content because it includes an optional nude mod. You'll have to make an account to see it.)

I'd recommend this overhaul. It uses an installer that gives you everything you need. It's a bit odd though. It will momentarily hijack your m/k to change settings. Won't cause any problems though. There are better texture/mesh packs that you can install afterward. They aren't included in the overhaul because they were made after it. Here are a couple.
