MGE XE issues (Steam GoTY Version)

Post » Thu May 10, 2012 1:50 pm

Okay, so Its been like 6 years since I last jumped into Morrowind, but all the sudden the other day while playing Skyrim I got the urge to reinstall it and play through again. I had already picked up the GoTY version on Steam a few years back on some crazy sale, so I D/Led it and a bunch of mods that didn't used to exist (which is AMAZING to me). The biggest thing I was interested in is MGE XE though. As of right now all I have installed are the Code Patch and MGE XE, but I can't seem to get anything to work. I can start a game without MGE XE with no difficulty, but if I install it the I immediately have issues. I cannot start a new game without loading a previous game first, otherwise I just get a black screen with Jiub talking to me. I load a test save outside in Seyda Neen and it works, however I have this weird flickering line that seems to coincide with the horizon (where water meets sky) as well as some weird artifacts at my feet that flicker on occasion. By turning on VSync I was able to get the flickering aspect to stop and realized that the line was indeed the horizon and the artifacts at my feet were actually reflections from the water under the land (they were waves). How do I fix this? It is not the shaders, because it is the same with or without them. I tinkered with several settings and got nothing.

It may, however, be a symptom of a bigger issue, as I have a series of errors that pop up when I start the game with the MGE XE plugin installed. I cannot read them, as they pop up under the game and if I alt-tab the whole thing crashes. I also get a weird white screen for a split second right before the Main Menu appears.
