When you launch it for the first time it will ask you for your Morrowind folder.ģ. Download and install Wrye Mash Standalone.

Open Steam, go to Settings, go to the In-Game tab, and uncheck the "Enable Steam Community In-Game" box.Ģ. Steam users can follow these instructions to move Morrowind to a different folder.įollow these instructions to the letter or we will laugh at you when you ask for help. I'm DEAD serious, you have no idea how many problems are created just by installing without administrator mode. Otherwise, things won't work and crash constantly and we won't be able to solve your problems and we will make fun of you. exe (as well as all the other programs) are set to "Run as Administrator." Also, DO NOT install Morrowind into your "Program Files" folder (x86 works fine for me). Windows 7 users will need to disable UAC, and make sure the Morrowind.


The Something Awful thread on Morrowind has a pretty decent installation guide - I followed this when I installed it, and it was really helpful. I needed to make a few manual adjustments to get it to work after it was done, which were fairly complex, and you need to remember to run it all as admin etc., but overall, it's much simpler and more stable than running a whole bunch of conflicting mods.Īs to installation - again, slightly complicated by the fact that I ran the non-steam version, and the Morrowind Graphics and Sound Overhaul 3.0 has just come out, but hopefully this will be helpful. In my experience it's the only graphics mod you'll need, since it bundles most of the other mods along with it, and can be tweaked depending on your system. It's got a lot of wonderful general texture mods, new vegetation and foliage, new hi-res textures on people/armour/weapons, the works, and includes the Morrowind Graphics Extender as well as a really cool automated installer that will fill everything in for you at light speed, and carry out all the tweaks pretty effectively. I really recommend using the Morrowind Graphics and Sound Overhaul, found here/ here. Can't say I have much experience with the Steam version of Morrowind, since I busted out my old CDs when I was running it.
