Does anyone know a utility that will allow me to find the Base ID of an object from a Morrowind mod? Something like FormID finder or RefScope for Oblivion.

There is no such thing an item is referenced by it's name such as misc_com_plate_01 or in_hal_room_02 (I just made those up but the real names look similar) You can find them on the appropriate tabs of the conatruction set.

Thanks very much.

Now my next problem is how to get an NPC to equip an item. I though that the Morrowind console would have the equivalent of the Oblivion equipitem command; but it doesn't. Drat it.

what are you trying to get an NPC equip if it's better than any thing that they have in there inventory and it fits there skills they should equip it automatically.

@Nicholiathan - Nice to see you around again

It's actor->equip "item name". You should get the http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?id=6083&view=Mods.Detail PDF, it's a good reference.

If you are looking to identity a specific item in-game, just open the console and click on said item and it's ID will be displayed in the console header. There also a command to identify witch mod affect the object but I don't remenber it, should be in the Morrowind script for dummies anyways. Read the pdf it's really helpfull and easy to grasp even if you don't have any experience in programming or in the CS.
