Sirahs-- I have DL'd a few mods, from LowGenius as well as a couple from
other sites. I seem unable to place them in my game. I would appreciate any
help on this. I have--Balmora house, Vivec house, Fists O'Fire. I cannot
extract them to my main game. What am i doing wrong? I would also like to
DL the mod that allows me to play 60 more quests in Soltheim, but I forgot
where to get it.
I have decided to play my game from page one inna manual, covering every
little thing. My Bal Isra site is lit up like Kennedy airport on
Thanksgiving.
Also, I promised to locate where I found that 500 dollar lamp in
Soltheim, so i am working on that. Stay tuned----

There should be a readme file in my zip that tells you how and where to
extract the files - some of them use new skins, so it's not just a matter
of unzipping a .esp into \Data Files.

Once that's done, launch the game using the original shortcut (rather than
a tool like the FPS optimizer); click 'data files,' and select the .esp
files you want to play with (much like selecting which expansions you want
to use).

1. Mods go into the "Data Files" folder. There're many subdirectories in it,
e.g. Model, Texture. Find the readme of the mod you're using to see how to
place the files. If no readme is available, the mod's zip/rar file is
usually packed with the directory structure intact. Failing that, use the
file extensions + common sense to determine where to put the files. Note
that some mods will use new directories, e.g. "Potions" mod use a new
directory to store its new potion icons.

2. You need to check the mod in "Data Files" option when you launch
Morrowind.

3. Don't use a save that your character is in an area that the mod modifies,
e.g. Balmora House when your save is in Balmora city, outdoors.

Thanks! ^_^

BTW, Did you ever find your Dirty Brown pillow, and if so was it one of
the pillows that are sometimes found on hammocks?

Before selecting any of the .esp data files make a Pre-Mod Save Game so
that you'll have a safe game to load if you have any problems with a
mod.

Also, it's a good idea to select the .esp files for ONE mod at a time so
that you can try the mod in game play and if you have problems, you'll
have a better idea which mod is causing them...

Good Luck! ^_^


That's my 2¢,

assumed the DL should go to the TEC construction site, but can't find it
there. Have not found a readme yet. I'll keep looking. Once I decide on
something, I will bug youse all 'till I obtain instant gratification. I want
that Balmora house! I want those fists 'o fire! LOL! I am an American! I
want it all NOW! 🙂

I will proceed with all due caution. I had assumed the mods would go
into the TEC construction site, but never found it there. At any rate, I am
having a great time doing other things with the game.

FTA-- I have only found a single dirty pillow. I have now to recall
where i found it, and get it into my collection. I don't think there is more
than that single one. As to be expected, it was in some forgotten place. I
am now traveling in Solstheim, looking for that wrecked ship that had the
500 GP lantern.
Thank you all very much for your help.
If this is any help: use the jump key often. It always throws the enemy
out of sorts and makes it VERY easy to kill 'em off. They run away and get
confused. By the time you land, one blow dusts them. I used the jump key in
the final quest in Bloodmoon and it made it much easier. BTW, There is a
line in the final Bloodmoon quest that is worth the price of the game.
Anyone know what it is?--dennis

Thanks! ^_^ If I ever run across your Dirty Pillow, I'll let you know
where I found it. I'm currently collecting pillows and using them to
create connecting pillow arches from rooftop to rooftop across the Odai
river in Balmora. It takes around 100 pillows to create each arch and
as soon as I finish my third arch, I'm going to start removing the lower
pillows in each arch and use them to fill in the gaps at the top
creating a pillow mound floating over the center of Balmora...

My current character hasn't traveled to Solstheim yet, she's still busy
traveling around Morrowind.

That's an interesting fighting tactic, one of these days I'll hopefully
remember to try it.

Can't post it here - not a binary group. If he needs a place to put it,
though, he can drop a line to agmfaq at lowgenius.com and I'll be more than
happy to load it into my morrowind screenshots database.

I think I've got enough pillows to finish the project, however I've been
so busy collecting and planting seeds with the Herbalism mod, that until
now my pillow project was put on the back burner. However since you're
interested, I'll try to post a link here with one or more Before
(complete arches) and After (Balmora floating pillow mound) pictures.

I'll try to finish the project and post the screenshot pic link here
within the next few days, or at most by next weekend since I may decide
to add a few lights or other final touches of some kind to my pillow
mound...

Thanks for the offer John Henry! ^_^ The interest here has convinced me
to reactivate both of my old Geocities.com web pages, and when I've
finished my pillow project I'll post a link here where anyone interested
can view the pics. If when I post a link, you end up seeing any pics
you like, you're welcome to add them to your web pages morrowind

Take Care! ^_^
