» Wed Oct 17, 2012 4:21 am I have made a new patch to be used instead of Eisenfaust's patch.
No more script errors or missing meshes are the main fixes. Full details in the ReadMe.
Be sure to read the Notes in the ReadMe, otherwise you might get confused on how some things work, and about compatibilities.
Includes a patch for GCD users, so that the script works.

Once extracted and opened, just drag and drop the Meshes/Icons/Textures Folders and the Definitive Birthsigns Redux Patch.esp into your Morrowind/Data Files Folder. Say "yes" to any overwrites.
REQUIREMENTS:
The original version of The Definitive Birthsigns Pack must be installed first.
Found here: http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=150
If you use GCD, be sure to also use the DBirth-Redux GCD Patch.esp found in the GCD patch folder.
Do NOT use the "Definitive Birthsign Patch" (by Eisenfaust) alongside this patch.
This Redux patch is meant to replace it.
*****************************************************************
Notes, FAQ
*****************************************************************
*IMPORTANT*
Some Birthsigns have Drain effects. They will appear as "Drain 0 pts" and will be added to your character via a script when you leave the Census Office. This is the only way to modify the stats correctly.
It is usually between 10-20 points. The exact Drain numbers can be seen in the "Birthsign Stats" document.
I highly recommend that you use the Code Patch option "Larger service/chargen menus" otherwise you will not be able to see all the Birthsign effects during CharGen.
The vanilla Birthsigns do not get changed, but a few of them will now start you with items after CharGen is complete.
This mod is compatible with mods that change the vanilla Birthsigns, but you will not get the items from this mod added to your inventory for the vanilla Birthsigns.
This is fully compatible with the GCD Balanced Birthsign mod.
List of Changes:
- No more script errors when exiting the Census Office when choosing Birthsigns that used the Random function for items.
- A MessageBox appears for added items (upon leaving the Census Office)
- the Golden Apple now has a proper mesh/texture
- the Tinker's Dwemer Box will now work even if your Enchant skill is below 10
- "Mermaid's Kiss" is now a Spell, instead of Ability. Now it won't conflict with drowning yourself in the Puzzle Canol.
- the Horseshoes are now called Quicksilver Boots, and they now have correct AR
- the Battered Robe is now called the Humble Robe
- the Holy Amulet is now called Almsivi Amulet
- unique names and meshes/icons for the Gatekeeper keys, so they are easier to quickly identify
- the "All Hallow's Eve" Power is now called "Ancestor's Moon"
- the "Wing of Bat, Eye of Newt" Power is now called "Cauldron Craft"
- the Walking Staff now has the speed/reach of a staff, not a dagger
- fixed a few spelling errors in the additions to The Firmament book
- added one new Birthsign, The Monk
- re-balanced a few Birthsigns so they don't feel as overpowered or underpowered. (but not really any major changes)
The details of the Birthsigns for this patch are listed in the file called "Birthsign Stats"
If you want to see the original Birthsign stats, check the ReadMe from the original mod.
