== Working Status of existing Morrowind Mods ==
== Introduction ==


Once you have played through the basic Morrowind you will probably want to start adding some of the hundreds of mods so you enhance parts of game play to suit your style or just improve the look and variety in the game. This page is a list of mods and their status in regards to running on the OpenMW engine.
Once you have played through unmodded Morrowind and its expansions, you probably want to add some spice to your next playthrough: thousands of modifications (mods) are available to enhance the overall gameplay, adjust the game mechanics to your tastes, or simply improve the graphics quality. There also are mods which add new landscapes and quests – and some are proper total conversions (TCs), stand-alone games taking Morrowind's engine as a basis.


What the status symbols mean:
The OpenMW project has set one of its main goals to provide compatibility with each and every Morrowind mod which
<table>
*is a pure replacer or a modification created with the original Construction Set,
<tr><td>[[File:green.png|35 px|Status]]</td><td>Works as in vanilla, there may be a couple of warning messages written to the error log but nothing that affects the function.</td></tr>
*doesn't rely on third-party software or other engine hacks,
<tr><td>[[File:orange.png|35 px|Status]]</td><td>Currently some or most of the mod works as expected but there are issues, see the description text for bug references or work arounds.</td></tr>
*doesn't contain any severe scripting errors or other crucial design flaws.
<tr><td>[[File:red.png|35 px|Status]]</td><td>Not working yet, the description text should explain why and which bugs affect the mod.</td></tr>
<tr><td>[[File:Blue.png|35 px|Status]]</td><td>Needs retesting following bug fixes and code updates.</td></tr>
<tr><td>[[File:black.png|35 px|Status]]</td><td>This mod is not expected to ever work in OpenMW due to major errors in the mod or it using functions that are not available.</td></tr>
</table>


For installing mods check the tutorial section for the OpenMW improved [[Mod installation]] method
Our engine is, of course, not perfect and certain mods may fail to load or may show unexpected behaviour. If you encounter any bugs with a mod, please report them at our [https://bugs.openmw.org/ bugtracker] or at our [https://forum.openmw.org forums] (newbies should check out our [[Bug Reporting Guidelines]]). Additionally, we have created this page to keep track of tested Morrowind mods and provide information about issues related to each of these mods.


Anyone who is a member of the wiki group can add details of mods they have tested, see the user control panel to get access, or if you are unsure of wiki editing you can message Tinker from the forum member list.
=== Mod installation ===


<!-- Note for editors
OpenMW uses a more flexible method for installing mods. Check out our [[Mod installation]] Wiki page here.
You can use this line to copy a paste a template line into the table.


<tr><td>'''Name'''</td><td>[[File:colour.png|35 px|Status]]</td><td>url</td><td>Description</td><td>version</td></tr>
=== Mod sources ===


Each mod should alphabetically by name and the status of the mod as a image, change the png filename to one of these - green (works without exception), orange (works with exceptions), red (broken) and black (will never work), the url for downloading it (only if it works) and a description, explaining if there are differences between vanilla behaviour and OpenMW and/or what breaks and workarounds, please also link to any bug reports on the bug tracker, then finally which version of OpenMW it was tested on. -->
The OpenMW team does not provide any mods or external mod tools. However, there are a couple of great mod libraries for TES III: Morrowind (this list is not exhaustive):

<tr><td>'''Apel's Fire Retexture'''</td><td>[[File:green.png|35 px|Good]]</td><td>[http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/42554 Nexus] </td><td> Uses "NiFogProperty" which is not implemented yet. </td><td>0.35</td></tr>
=== Fixing mods that use fake bump maps ===
<span id="Mods using fake bump maps"></span><!--Old section name; may have incoming links.-->
Bump maps produce a realistic shine on textures. Morrowind Code Patch (MCP) made it possible to use so-called ''fake bump maps'' in vanilla Morrowind. Apart from these maps not achieving the quality of real bump maps, our engine has a problem with this approach: The fake-bump-map method imports the normal map into an environment-map block in the <samp>.nif</samp> file. Both OpenMW and vanilla Morrowind will display such a model with excessively shiny or glowing textures. MCP is used with vanilla Morrowind to "fix" this by darkening all the environment maps. However, OpenMW's engine natively supports real bump maps (specifically the types called ''normal maps'' and ''spectral maps''), which renders the hacky MCP version obsolete anyway.


<tr><td>'''Assasin Ambush'''</td><td>[[File:green.png|35 px|Good]]</td><td>[http://http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/42619/? Nexus]</td><td>No problems found. Appears to work as intended.</td><td>0.35</td></tr>
Our member Lysol has created [https://openmw.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference/modding/convert_bump_mapped_mods.html a tutorial on how to get rid of these shiny textures in OpenMW].


<tr><td>'''Balmora Balcony House'''</td><td>[[File:green.png|35 px|Good]]</td><td>[http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/324/? Nexus]</td><td>Adds a house in Balmora in Balmoras Canal West Manor District. No problems found.</td><td>0.33</td></tr>
To cut a long story short: Mods using fake bump maps will always appear very shiny in OpenMW. This can only be fixed by editing the textures/meshes.


<tr><td>'''Better Bodies'''</td><td>[[File:green.png|35 px|Good]]</td><td>[http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/3880/? Nexus]</td><td>Replaces the original segmented bodies with new, continuous bodies. No problems found.</td><td>0.34</td></tr>
=== ''Morrowind Graphics and Sound Overhaul'' (MGSO) incompatibility ===
<span id="Morrowind Graphics and Sound Overhaul (MGSO)"></span><!--Old section name; may have incoming links.-->
''Morrowind Overhaul: Sounds & Graphics'' a.k.a. MGSO is one of the biggest and best-known Morrowind mod compilations. It consists of around 300 mods and integrates well-known utilities like the ''Morrowind Code Patch'' (MCP) and the ''Morrowind Graphics Extender'' (MGE). It comes with its own installer which allows players to adjust everything to their tastes.


<tr><td>'''Books of Vvardenfell'''</td><td>[[File:green.png|35 px|Good]]</td><td>[http://download.fliggerty.com/download--880 Fliggerty]</td><td>Tested by PoorYorec. Everything seems to work as expected though some books do have slightly different titles in the inventory than those in the books. Last tester - Tinker</td><td>0.34</td></tr>
Unfortunately, OpenMW does not support installer-based modifications like MGSO, rendering it essentially incompatible with OpenMW. However, you may set up MGSO on your vanilla Morrowind installation, then import your data and mod list to OpenMW, and hope for the best.


<tr><td>'''Black Panther'''</td><td>[[File:green.png|35 px|Good]]</td><td>[http://www.slofslair.co.uk/mods/10 Author's website]</td><td>Adds two new feline races. No problems found.</td><td>0.34</td></tr>
In any case, we've added many of the corresponding mods to the mod compatibility lists above; check out the full list of mods included in MGSO, on our [[MGSO]] Wiki page. (The original list was formerly available at the authors' website but has somehow vanished.)


<tr><td>'''BTB's Sorted New Alchemy Potions'''</td><td>[[File:green.png|35 px|Good]]</td><td>[http://mw.modhistory.com/download-37-6752 Mod history] </td><td> Using the esp for AOF style potions and the meshes, textures, icons for Vanilla style potions, the mod works perfectly</td><td>0.33</td></tr>
== Utilities software for Morrowind ==
<span id="Utilities for vanilla Morrowind"></span><!--Old section name; may have incoming links.-->
There are quite a few third-party utilities for Morrowind which allow players to increase the game's graphical quality, tweak its performance, edit content, adjust the load order of content files, and so forth. While most of these programs are not compatible with OpenMW, some of them may be used to "prepare" an existing Morrowind installation and port the results to OpenMW. At your own risk, of course.


<tr><td>'''CharGen Revamped'''</td><td>[[File:green.png|35 px|Good]]</td><td>[http://mw.modhistory.com/download-55-985 Mod History]</td><td>No problems works as in vanilla. Tester - Tinker</td><td>0.34</td></tr>
=== List of catalogued utilities ===
<div style="margin-left: 3em;">''Forthcoming: a column showing operating system(s), if applicable (many of these tools require MS Windows).''</div>


<tr><td>'''Creatures'''</td><td>[[File: green.png|35 px|Good]]</td><td>[http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/30563/? Nexus]</td><td>As of version 0.35, the mod can probably be deemed issue-free.</td><td>0.35</td></tr>

Some of its features may be added to OpenMW after our 1.0 release (see our [[MWSE]] Wiki page for further information), and an OpenMW fork experimenting with [[Scripting Extension]] is already in advanced development (requires at least Python 3.3, Lua 5.1, and SWIG 3).

This utility fixes a good amount of buggy or poorly-written game mechanics, and Bethesda engine bugs, and brings a bunch of new (optional) features to vanilla Morrowind. It is a stand-alone MS Windows executable and does not work with OpenMW. Many of its features have already been either added to OpenMW or simply do not apply because the from-scratch nature of OpenMW never produced that particular bug in the first place.

Installation See Mod installation for how to add mods to OpenMW.

Help/Discussion

See the Mod Compatibility forum.

More mods Some individual users also have testing-in-progress notes about many more mods, e.g. here.

Introduction

Once you have played through unmodded Morrowind and its expansions, you probably want to add some spice to your next playthrough: thousands of modifications (mods) are available to enhance the overall gameplay, adjust the game mechanics to your tastes, or simply improve the graphics quality. There also are mods which add new landscapes and quests – and some are proper total conversions (TCs), stand-alone games taking Morrowind's engine as a basis.

The OpenMW project has set one of its main goals to provide compatibility with each and every Morrowind mod which

  • is a pure replacer or a modification created with the original Construction Set,
  • doesn't rely on third-party software or other engine hacks,
  • doesn't contain any severe scripting errors or other crucial design flaws.

Our engine is, of course, not perfect and certain mods may fail to load or may show unexpected behaviour. If you encounter any bugs with a mod, please report them at our bugtracker or at our forums (newbies should check out our Bug Reporting Guidelines). Additionally, we have created this page to keep track of tested Morrowind mods and provide information about issues related to each of these mods.

Mod installation

OpenMW uses a more flexible method for installing mods. Check out our Mod installation Wiki page here.

Mod sources

The OpenMW team does not provide any mods or external mod tools. However, there are a couple of great mod libraries for TES III: Morrowind (this list is not exhaustive):

Open mod libraries and indexes: Project-specific, or selected contributors:

Further information and discussion

Anyone who is a member of the Wiki group can add details of mods they have tested; see the forum's User Control Panel and assign yourself to the group in order to get access.

We also have a Mod Compatibility subforum where any issues can be discussed thoroughly.

If you want to test Morrowind mods in OpenMW but don't know how to start, check out our Mod testing guidelines page. If you already know how to properly test mods in OpenMW, please check this page out too because it also contains information regarding posting your test results.

Working status of existing Morrowind mods

The following list of "tested", "test in progress", "needs re-testing", or "not tested yet" mods makes no claim to be complete. Every Morrowind modification fulfilling the requirements mentioned above should work with OpenMW. The statements made about a mod's working status refer to a clean OpenMW installation, only using the particular mod and its required content files.

Lists of catalogued mods

Fixing mods that use fake bump maps

Bump maps produce a realistic shine on textures. Morrowind Code Patch (MCP) made it possible to use so-called fake bump maps in vanilla Morrowind. Apart from these maps not achieving the quality of real bump maps, our engine has a problem with this approach: The fake-bump-map method imports the normal map into an environment-map block in the .nif file. Both OpenMW and vanilla Morrowind will display such a model with excessively shiny or glowing textures. MCP is used with vanilla Morrowind to "fix" this by darkening all the environment maps. However, OpenMW's engine natively supports real bump maps (specifically the types called normal maps and spectral maps), which renders the hacky MCP version obsolete anyway.

Our member Lysol has created a tutorial on how to get rid of these shiny textures in OpenMW.

To cut a long story short: Mods using fake bump maps will always appear very shiny in OpenMW. This can only be fixed by editing the textures/meshes.

Morrowind Graphics and Sound Overhaul (MGSO) incompatibility

Morrowind Overhaul: Sounds & Graphics a.k.a. MGSO is one of the biggest and best-known Morrowind mod compilations. It consists of around 300 mods and integrates well-known utilities like the Morrowind Code Patch (MCP) and the Morrowind Graphics Extender (MGE). It comes with its own installer which allows players to adjust everything to their tastes.

Unfortunately, OpenMW does not support installer-based modifications like MGSO, rendering it essentially incompatible with OpenMW. However, you may set up MGSO on your vanilla Morrowind installation, then import your data and mod list to OpenMW, and hope for the best.

In any case, we've added many of the corresponding mods to the mod compatibility lists above; check out the full list of mods included in MGSO, on our MGSO Wiki page. (The original list was formerly available at the authors' website but has somehow vanished.)

Utilities software for Morrowind

There are quite a few third-party utilities for Morrowind which allow players to increase the game's graphical quality, tweak its performance, edit content, adjust the load order of content files, and so forth. While most of these programs are not compatible with OpenMW, some of them may be used to "prepare" an existing Morrowind installation and port the results to OpenMW. At your own risk, of course.

List of catalogued utilities

Table 4. List of catalogued utilities
Mod Info Test Info
Name Version Author Status [?] Test Version Test Date Tester(s) Comments
Animation Kit N  2.1 LizTail Usable. OpenMW 0.40.0 2016/10/20 Atahualpa Works as intended. Just use it with your vanilla installation of Morrowind.
BSA Unpacker MW N  1.0 Timeslip Usable. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa Works as intended to extract BSA files so you can edit the textures or meshes contained therein. Note: Your installation of OpenMW already includes a command line tool for this same job.
ESP Cleaner N  ? Horatio Usable. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa OpenMW does not alter the .esp format. Accordingly, mod creators and players can use this tool to clean .esp files and use them with OpenMW. OpenMW provides its own file formats .omwaddon and .omwgame which replace .esp and .esm, respectively, for content created with OpenMW-CS. These files do not work with ESP Cleaner.
GMST Vaccine and GMST Fix A  0.02 Wrye (Vaccine) and ManaUser (Fix) Usable. - n/a n/a ESP tools for preventing and curing GMST contamination, respectively. The vaccine should still be usable via vanilla CS, the fix should work directly in OpenMW (but please read documentation first).
mlox N  0.61 JohnMoonsugar Not recommended. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa You may use this tool to find the optimal load order for your mods on your original Morrowind installation, then keep your fingers crossed and manually transfer the resulting load order to the OpenMW launcher.
Mod Organizer Nexus SSE section 2.1.3 LePresidente Not recommended. - 2018/06/10 Starsheep For Windows users. Mod Organizer 2.1.3 is compatible with the original Morrowind out of the box and doesn't touch any of your game files. You can use it to build your loadout while benefitting from all the MO features for files organization and interface with nexusmods. External tools like mlox or nifskope can be run through MO to see the consolidated /data Files folder in the virtual file system. It cannot launch OpenMW which uses its own VFS, but a scriptN  made by AnyOldName3 can automatically add to your openmw.cfg all the data= and content= entries related to your MO profile.
Morrowind Code Patch N  2.2 Hrnchamd
Psyringe		 Will never work with OpenMW. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa Not compatible with OpenMW; see our MCP Wiki page for further information.
Morrowind Enhanced A  1.6 aerelorn Will never work with OpenMW. - 2017/6/20 Thunderforge Not compatible with OpenMW; designed to only work alongside vanilla Morrowind.exe
Morrowind FPs Optimizer N  1.0 Alexander Stasenko Will never work with OpenMW. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa This utility only works with the original Morrowind process which makes it incompatible with OpenMW. The possibility to dynamically adjust the rendering quality depending on the FPS is a nice idea though – and not possible in OpenMW yet.
Morrowind Graphics Extender (MGE) N  3.8.0 LizTail
Timeslip		 Will never work with OpenMW. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa Not compatible with OpenMW; see our MGE XE Wiki page for further information.
Morrowind Graphics Extender XE (MGE XE) N  0.9.10 Hrnchamd Will never work with OpenMW. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa Not compatible with OpenMW; see our MGE XE Wiki page for further information.
Morrowind Interactive Map A  Final Geronimo, Dave Humphrey, Khabarik Works fine. - n/a n/a This is just an interactive map which you can consult to find specific places in Morrowind (especially if you sometimes have no access to UESP due to having no internet, for example). It is an external tool and is used solely outside of the game, so it is always usable regardless of engine.
Morrowind Mod Manager N  1.0 Timeslip Almost useless. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa You may use this tool to mess around with your original Morrowind installation. However, launching OpenMW via the "Launch Morrowind" button is not possible (obviously) which drastically decreases the program's usability.
Morrowind Plugin Manager N  1.2 DW Not recommended. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa You may use this tool to install mods to your original Morrowind installation and make adjustments to your load order and stuff there, finally setting the exact same load order in the OpenMW launcher. However, OpenMW provides its own way of installing mods making it possible to use as many data folders as you want to, while adjusting the load order at will in our launcher.
Morrowind Resolution Fixer N  1.0 DarkWolfModding Will never work with OpenMW. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa Not compatible with OpenMW but our engine provides support for all common screen resolutions anyway.
(To be honest, this software doesn't even work with my original Morrowind installation. And messing around with the registry isn't very user-friendly to say the least.)
Morrowind Script Extender (MWSE) M  0.94a AnthonyG
Fliggerty		 Will never work with OpenMW. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa Not compatible with OpenMW; see our MWSE Wiki page for further information.
OpenMW Leveled List Fixer A  1.0 jmelesky Works fine. OpenMW 0.43.0 May 2018 jmelesky Requires Python 3.3 or higher.
TES Plugin Tool (TESTool) M  1.0 ghostwheel Almost useless. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa You may use this tool to mess around with your original Morrowind installation. Please note that OpenMW does not support merging leveled lists directly (see OpenMW Leveled List Fixer, above).
TESIniTweaker N  3.5.2 Moorindal Not recommended. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa You may use this tool to adjust the settings in your Morrowind.ini file and, then import the modified .ini file from within the OpenMW launcher. Please note that doing so may lead to certain settings in your OpenMW settings file getting overwritten.
TESPCD N  0.31 Ely Soto Usable. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa You may use this tool with unclean or conflicting mods in order to get the issues solved.
Wrye Mash N  84 Wrye Almost useless. - 2016/10/03 Atahualpa You may use this tool to mess around with your original Morrowind installation. Please note that OpenMW savegames aren't compatible with vanilla ones and, thus, cannot be managed via Wrye Mash. The infamous doubling bug doesn't occur in OpenMW.

Morrowind Script Extender (MWSE) incompatibility

Mods that require MWSE will not work in OpenMW. This utility expands the scripting capabilities of the original Morrowind engine. It is a stand-alone MS Windows executable and does not work with OpenMW. Some of its features may be added to OpenMW after our 1.0 release (see our MWSE Wiki page for further information), and an OpenMW fork experimenting with Scripting Extension is already in advanced development (requires at least Python 3.3, Lua 5.1, and SWIG 3).

Morrowind Graphics Extender (MGE / MGE XE) incompatibility

Mods that require MGE will not work in OpenMW. These utilities improve Morrowind's overall graphical quality, make it possible to control certain graphics settings via scripts, and add several new features to the original engine, e.g., a variety of shaders. It is a stand-alone MS Windows executable and does not work with OpenMW. Many of their features have already been added to OpenMW with more on the way, and some of OpenMW's feature already surpass some of MGE's and MGE XE's. See our MGE XE Wiki page for more information.

Morrowind Code Patch (MCP) incompatibility

This utility fixes a good amount of buggy or poorly-written game mechanics, and Bethesda engine bugs, and brings a bunch of new (optional) features to vanilla Morrowind. It is a stand-alone MS Windows executable and does not work with OpenMW. Many of its features have already been either added to OpenMW or simply do not apply because the from-scratch nature of OpenMW never produced that particular bug in the first place. See our MCP Wiki page to learn more.
