How up to date is Morrowind Overhaul 3?

Post » Fri Sep 26, 2014 1:07 pm

I'm curious about how much of the stuff in the 3rd iteration of the Overhaul is out-of-date and whether or not I should pick and choose or just use it over a base installation which will be further modded from there.

Of course, some stuff like mlox will be out of date, but I was wondering if there was anything else outstanding that was.

Hi,

well, people might have different opinions on whether you should use it or not. But if your only concern is out-of-date mods, I would definitely say go for it and use it as a base (I'm doing the same). After installation, you should fix some errors. You can find their list mostly with links to fixes in main post of MGSO thread here on forums. There are also some updated versions of included mods. I can throw together list about the ones I know about if you are interested. Then there are some mods that are mostly better or will better suit your tastes. You can install most mods you will like on top of MGSO. I just recommend checking which files would get overwritten and backup them in case you would like to return to MGSO version. Of course some mods might be incompatible with MGSO, mostly in the sense that they would cause floaters or something like that (i.e. one mod adds a rock on ground, other mod alters shape of that ground). But once again, I personally use it as base and although I had to tweak some mods, I successfully run it along other (approximately 250) mods without a problem :)

Your post sounds exactly what I was planning on doing, haha. I just didn't want to use it as a base and use dozens of mods after only to have to backtrack over out-of-date mods. I would hugely appreciate if you threw together that list for me.

Could you also link me to the main MSGO discussion thread you talk about? I did not see one here - I've never posted on these forums before.

Thanks! Nice DK avatar, by the way.
