Mods not showing up in game

Post » Sun Aug 21, 2011 11:50 am

I am somewhat new at modding in Morrowind but have figured out how to install the entire Morrowind Overhaul mod compilation. Now I have a slight problem... I am trying to install the Ravenloft House Mod and cannot get it to give me the amulet or show the amulet in its proper place in the starting town. I then tried another mod, the Morrowind Abodes Mod, and it will not create the houses that it is intended to. It is almost as if the mod is not present in the game at all.

The only things I can think of are that I have a conflict with the Morrowind Overhaul or I just don't know how to install mods correctly at all.

Both mods can in zip files with an esp. with a few meshes, textures, and sounds. I just extract to my Morrowind/Data Files/ right? Then I enable the mods in the Morrowind launcher by clicking Data Files and checking the mods to enable. I did all these steps and my Morrowind Overhaul works like a glove still, but the house mods still don't show up.

Please help. I am getting rather frustrated with this.

How many mods do you have enabled?
Have you checked to make sure those mods are in the ini (manually, not via launcher)?
Have you looked in the CS to see what the mods add and if it's visible there?
Have you checked for any errors or warnings (probably in warnings.txt) from those mods?

I did turn off all the Overhaul mods and try to just run the House mods, that didnt work. I have only the mods offered in the Overhaul and the two House mods I am trying to get to work.

I have no idea how to get the mods in the ini... I did look at it and has nothing that looks Ravenloft or Abodes related.

I will check the CS real quick. I havent used it in a long time so I hope I dont mess anything up.

Oh, and I did check the warning, but all the warnings are unrelated to the house mods. just from me making little tweaks.

If the mods are enabled, they should show up in the ini, in the list of files. If they aren't they, they aren't turned on.

K. I tried to get the Ravenloft Mod pulled up in CS and it couldn't. -cannot find host files or something like that-

I did pull up an old mod I did as a test in CS and it ran fine, so CS isn't the problem. The Morrowind.ini file is still unchanged from when I did the Overhaul. I did try again with activating the Data Files through the launcher and nothing changed in the ini.

What would you suggest me do next?

I'm not familiar with any errors regarding host files. If you can get the exact error message (copy/paste, into a codebox if it's long, or a screenshot), that may be more useful.

I will try it again and take a screen shot. I may not get to it though till late tomorrow. Would sending you my morrowind.ini file help too?

Probably not, the only thing I can think of from it is just the file list (which you've already checked).
