[Question] MGE XE Crashing Morrowind

Post » Tue Mar 04, 2014 2:31 am

Hi there,

So, over the past 2 days and probably about 10 hours of trying to get this to work, I have yet to pull it off. I downloaded the MGSO which included MGE XE. MGSO did everything it needed to and was great. The patches worked, the mods were installed perfectly, and the game runs fine. As for the MGE XE, it does not have the same success. When enabled in game it will do one of two things. One variant is that it crashes before it can even start. The launcher launches, when I click play a box pops up in the top left of my screen, the screen initiates the game and immediately says that "Morrowind has stopped working." The other variant is that Morrowind opens fine, but when it gets to the initial loading screen it drops to literal 1fps during loading. I have sat and waited through the loading and nothing changes. This non-crashing variant only occurs if I open it using rolled back settings (Windows XP 2002).

If I go into the MGEXEgui.exe and turn off MGE XE in game, it runs beautifully. The change in resolution is still there, but the antialiasing and antroscopic filter do not appear to have activated. Along with what you would expect not to work in the land generation and shaders that are the true reason this mod is so great.

My PC build is as follows:

i7 4770k 3.5ghz Processor

Nvidia Geforce GTX 660

8 Gigs DDR3 RAM

Dual Screen is enabled in the same resolution (1920x1080).

I have all things required by the program to run correctly (C++, DX 9, etc.)

Again, when I turn off the in game MGE the game works fine.

Please, if anyone has any advice, feel free to post and I thank you greatly in advance.

If you need any additional information just let me know.

Thank you again in advance,

Azo

Have you updated your video driver?

I assume you're running Windows7 or is it Windows8 (8.1?).

How did you launch MGEgui was it by double clicking on the MGEgui.exe or did you double clicked on the MGEgui shortcut?
