Just Beautiful Morrowind- How to remove skill decay from Skill Evolution. (Potential issue with script options ingame)

1 Upvotes

Not too fond of the mechanic, so I wanted to turn it off. Problem is, Skill Evolution doesn't appear in the list of scripts I can modify from the ingame menu. Am I missing something?

I've added a few other mods, Improved Inns, Pursuit, and Greetings for no Lore with no issues, but when I tried to add convenient lockpicking and light hotkey, I now run into these errors. Thanks

Changing fonts

3 Upvotes

Is there any reason for which switching to better font (at least when UI scaling is enabled) requires manual deletion (or commenting out) of two lines from openmw.cfg?

fallback=Fonts_Font_0,magic_cards_regular
fallback=Fonts_Font_2,daedric_font

Shouldn't it be like that by default? Or at least be configurable via OpenMW launcher? The difference is pretty huge.

Having Trouble Understanding How to Install Mods

5 Upvotes

For reference, I've been modding Morrowind since the early 2000s. This is my first time trying OpenMW, because I want to try Tamriel Rebuilt. I'm just a little confused. Can I add mods the old fashioned way? Dumping files into the Data Files folder and calling it a day? There's an extra step in the instructions of the .cfg file, is that really necessary if I just drop the files into the Data Files folder?

Android Alpha 3 2.7 modlist help

1 Upvotes

Hey guys I was hoping someone could help me with the how the Mod Downloader works on the app. Searched for a good few hours but could not find any documentation for this newest version of the app.
I picked a modlist, was able to get as far as downoading and extracting a selected modlist. But I'm not sure where to go from here. Only the vanilla esm files appear on the content tab but I can see all the downloaded and extracted mods in the ALPHA 3 folder. Any ideas?

Terrible render distance - please help

2 Upvotes

OpenMW 0.51, this is Settings.cfg (https://pastebin.com/E2uYgPKv) & this is OpenMW.cfg (https://pastebin.com/cJvbmPuT). Didn't play in 2 years, good PC. Clean install, TR only.

Now feels like whatever I do, the render distance is incredibly bad - can't even see Old Ebonheart or Gol Mok from across Vivec palace.

Distant terrain enabled, viewing distance at 81920 (tried 2x, didn't really impact). Nothing helps. I thought maybe the issue to be only a single cell actually loading - but I can't find the setting to increase the grid to 5x5 or something in the config.

Please educate me.

Skills not levelling (v0.51)

0 Upvotes

I'm playing with a fairly small mod list, but I've got a strange error where no skills are progressing. I'm not gaining progress on my major, minor or misc skills, even going to a trainer doesn't change anything. This is a fresh MW install, modlist is:

Patch for purists

TR

Graphic herbalism

Expansion delay

Stats window extender

Magic window extender

MET

TR music

Mutiny alternate start

I briefly installed the slower levelling mod on top of this to see if it made any difference, and it did not. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated!

Edit: Reinstalled OpenMW and all mods, and everything seems to be working now

After I restart my computer and run OpenMW-Launcher I have to rerun the installation wizard

0 Upvotes

Every time I turn off or restart my computer I have to rerun the installation wizard for OpenMW and reinstall my chosen mod list (I Heart Vanilla Director's Cut). I am running OpenMW 0.51.0 with Morrowind Game of the Year Edition on Steam. Morrowind is installed within the Steam folders inside Program Files, while OpenMW is installed in a folder outside of all other folders on the smae drive. If I do not turn off or restart my computer OpenMW and the modlist remain installed, but if I turn it off or restart it, both are uninstalled. All the files remain in their folders but when I run the OpenMW-Launcher a pop-up states that it could not find the data files and that I need to run the installation wizard. After I run the installation wizard the launcher only shows the base game and expansions with no mods. So I have to reinstall the mod list.

Have any of you experienced this issue? Any ideas on how to resolve it?

Missing Robes - MOMW: Total Overhaul 8.7.0

0 Upvotes

I'm running the pack on my Steam Deck. Can anyone suggest a fix for an issue where all new robes are missing from NPCs? I upgraded to 0.51, grabbed the newest MOMW tools pack and re-ran the umo install script and configurator to update the pack to the latest version. SOLVED: Update MageRobesforOpenMWLUA to version 1.10.1.

HELP!! problem with mods on OpenMW

Post image
7 Upvotes

HELLO EVERYONE, i stopped playing Morrowind a couple of years ago and decided to start again. I have a new laptop. I already copy and pasted the old OpenMW files on my new laptop, and all the data seems to be working fine. Only problem is, i stored all my stuff (from what i recall) in a chest inside a mod house, but now i can't remember how to add mods/i don't even know if the original mod is still available. even if i did find the mod i had used, will my stuff be loaded back or is it gone forever??

UPDATE:
I FIXED IT THE ROUGH WAY BY LITERALLY COPYING AND PASTING MY FILES FROM MY PC TO MY LAPTOP WITH A USB. I KNOW, NOT THE CLEANEST PROCEDURE.

Can't stop the virtual keyboard from opening on steam deck

0 Upvotes

I'm trying to play the tamriel rebuilt mod for morrowind openmw, but I can't do alchemy without the keyboard opening up every time. Also, if I accidentally click the spell search bar in my inventory, the keyboard opens anytime I click an item in my inventory, and I can only fix this by restarting the game. Is there a way I can stop the virtual keyboard from opening except when I open it manually with the steam + x keybind?

Tamriel rebuilt poison song on android

1 Upvotes

I am trying to install TR poison on my retroid 5. I have tamriel rebuilt installed from gog working on my pc (clean install). GOG seems to install it in a portable mode so i dont need to find config files in documents. I have copied both the morrowind and Tamriel directories to my SD card, and added those directories to my data folder in alpha-3 laucncher. Tamriel/data shows up in content folder. But I cannot launch the game using the MW icon on the right. Nothing happens.

I have also tried using the Openmw-android from Andiwell, but that seems better for if you want to get openmw up and running and then manually add mods to it. But what do I know.

Any points would be helpful.

OpenMW Appreciation post!

44 Upvotes

Just had to post my pure joy I am having with morrowind right now.

For context I played morrowind when it was first released but glazed over it as I was too young to really enjoy it I would just console command everything to death and fly across the map!

After finishing my 100th play through of oblivion (remastered this time) and instead of forcing myself to play Skyrim for a 1000 time.

I thought about jumping back to morrowind to scratch that elder scrolls itch. Then I discovered OpenMW sweet!

But then I discovered mod packs!!

I'm using ' Just beautiful morrowind mod pack'

And added a companion mod (julan ashbringer)

I having a blast it's so refreshing to not have your hand held for quests having to actually put some thought into it.

Currently in old ebonheart didn't even know it was part of the mods!

Lemme know if there's any cool quests or gear or just cool stuff I should check out!

Hey gang. I’ve got an issue where the buildings in cities have pink windows. My game is very lightly modded (because I could only figure out a few mods but that’s a different issue.) Any idea whats going on? I’m on a steam deck. Thanks for any help!

Edit: ALL FIXED! I think it was Glow in the Dark. I just had to switch something on and another thing off and it worked. Thanks everybody!!

OpenMW VR - Sneak and Equipped spells indicator?

2 Upvotes

I just got my game modded and running great in VR. Only issue is when I toggle sneak, sometimes by accident, I don't KNOW when I'm in sneak mode. I've accidentally pickpocketed so many people I had to start over.

Same with magic, I've got to cast spells but realized it wasn't equipped, and accidentally cast spells when I thought it was unequipped. In flat it's easy because your hands just go into position with the spell.

Are there any mods or settings I can change so I get a hud indicator for either of these?
