General Morrowind Mod Discussion Thread, a place for open discussions, idea and resource sharing etc Options

[Uleni Athram]

As the title and description says, I made this here thread so we happy few that are playing and modding TES3 can have a singular place where we can have discussions about mods, share our ideas and resources regarding mods, post our WIP mods and maybe even help/contribute to each other's mods!

So to start off, here are the resources I am currently referring to for guidance when I'm working on my projects. Note, however, that since I've only started playing with the Construction Set (and Morrowind in general) this week, a majority of the following will be meant for newbies like me. So if y'all are veterans (which I know you guys are lmao), they might not offer what you already don't know:
---

1. Morrowind Modding Showcases' Lets Mod Morrowing YouTube Playlist

2. DanaePlays' Morrowind Modding Tutorial YouTube Playlist

3. Morrowind Mod Subreddit Community
3A. Morrowind Mod Subreddit Resources (their exhaustive list of resources are absolutely top-notch; No.1 and No.2 are actually listed there)
---

With that out of the way, the mod I'm currently working on is quite a simple one but should get my feet wet with all the basics. Its not anything fancy, really; I want to implement a bunch of mercenaries that you can hire anytime you want, with a simple questline that would unlock their services. I've already created the appropriate NPCs and I'm about to tackle the probably easy task of designing their base of operations. Once I'm done with the latter I'll probably do their unique dialogues next and from there, maaaaaaybe try my hand at their custom scripts? /shrugs/

So how about you guys? What are you guys working on?

Hello! Anybody here? I just got my Morrowind set up perfectly, including the Xbox controller. Finally I'm ready to game!

I will have questions about playing MW on PC, oh yes I will. First one: is there a way to make menus bigger? I sit about 7 or 8 feet away from my TV as I'm gaming, I need larger fonts, I think.

And also, I'll want a mod manager. I know about Wrye Mash. What other managers are there? I think I might want to start off with something simple first.

Just an update. I did use one of the fonts mentioned earlier by macole, but to make fonts bigger, I did not need a mod, instead I needed a utility, which is Morrowind Graphics Extender. Just open up the MGE X5.gui, make sure the Graphics tab is selected, and change the Menu UI scaling scroll-bar to whatever number is desired. I went from 1.00 to 1.55.

I also just discovered Emma's site, posted earlier in this thread. Wow.
