So.... after waaaay too long, I've returned to Morrowind, and it feels SO GOOD to be back! In the process, I've been relocating favourite, old mods, and fan fiction...which is also how, and why, I wound my way here again, too.

I'm really hoping somebody here can help me out in identifying a hair mod.

For the last several days, I've been trying to identify the original version of a mod. Specifically, I am trying to find a particular Hairstyle used in Tarnsman's Facepack Compilation (https://staticdelivery.nexusmods.com/mods/100/images/14435-1-1198473055.jpg) on Nexus. I am looking for the long, curly hair on a female that looks to be either Breton, or Imperial, shown in the top right corner of the image I linked; Tarnsman has indicated Locharnus is the author. However, I have installed every pack by Locharnus from Abot's MMH index, and it does not appear in my hair options at character creation.

While I could just use Tarnsman's mod, it has numerous problems, the most severe being that some files are missing, and thus errors occur when scrolling through certain hairstyles, and I prefer not to have errors like that in my games. Also, there are quite a few hairs in that pack I'm just not interested in. So.... I decided to just use the original, which is apparently easier said than done. In addition to downloading Locharnus' mods, I've also tried UQForgotten, Qarl, and various other authors listed as contributors, but, so far, no joy.

Help?

p.s Is there any way I can reset my password without knowing what my old one is? By some miracle, I was able to log in here, but I have no recollection, what my password was... at all.

Thank you I'll check my PMs in a while then!

No idea about the hair mod but it sounds like something I'd be interested in, so if we find out what it is, I'm gonna be interested!

Morrowind is really fun. I'm taking a 4 month break from playing it, partially for the reason you just stated. It is sooo addicting when you've come back to Vvardenfell after a long absence!

Yeah... I really like that long, curly hair style, so I'd LOVE to know the original source, it's so pretty!

Oh yeah.. and because Morrowind is so intricately detailed, it's not that difficult to forget things. I also find it interesting that despite its actual map being smaller than Skyrim's (I think?), it always feels so much bigger, somehow (even using MGE XE).

A few years ago I got heavily into Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 4, but I REALLY needed a break from them. I wasn't up to trying to mod Oblivion, I wasn't at all in the mood for Skyrim...and Morrowind had been calling me anyway....so my choice was clear. Every time I return to this game, I'm reminded just how much I love it.
It is also nice to have found Chorrol again, it is STILL one of the nicest places on the internet....so much these days is just such a toxic cesspit.

Sure, we're glad to have you back, ArtemisNoir2.

I played Oblivion from 2008 until a couple years ago pretty much solid. 5 years on consoles, and then I finally got a gaming PC in 2014, which made me addicted to that game all over again. So yeah, I understand needing a break for shore.

Post some pics of your new game, if you can.

I've taken the liberty of moving this thread to the appropriate section of the Mods forum.

Oh yes, I can definitely see how switching over to PC would make it feel all new again, sort of a much bigger version of upgrading a PC. Honestly.... I'm just so damned grateful to have a good gaming PC these days. Prices aren't as bad as they were when I put this new machine together, and my card back then... just OUCH! Damn, you're ASKING for screenshots, I love posting the damned things, so I'd be more than happy to.
Where is the best place to do so, though. As will be rather obvious to you and anyone else, I'm having some trouble orienting myself right now.

For MW screenshots, I'd recommend navigating the forum to Elder Scrolls Games > Older Games. Once there you might consider 'The Obligatory Screenshot Thread' or, if you intend to post lots of MW screenshots for a sustained period you might want to create your own thread in the Older Games section for your screens.

Posted by: ArtemisNoir2 Feb 11 2023, 03:51 AM

Thanks! I may create my own thread, since I do tend to take a lot of screenshots when I'm really immersed in a game.


EDIT
OK, done, I hope the location and formatting etc. are OK.

I just remembered, I actually found a version of the hair I was trying to hunt down, so just in case anyone else is ever interested:

Note that the link is derived using the WayBack Machine, so if you want the mod, grab it sooner, rather than later, as a precaution, seeing as MW Modhistory is no more.
