morrowind help

Post » Sun Oct 25, 2009 8:37 am

So I finally got morrowind and immediatly notice some things that I don't like and would love to know if and how to get rid of them.the fist one is that the doors get a little glitchy as I move towards them or away can I stop that some how.

two: theres these little tiny multicolored pixels that I can see during the game while I'm moving or standing still how can I stop this. is there some kind of patch I can download that would fix most of those things I did not buy the game from steam but I got it from ebay on cd I can play the game perfectly while on the highest settings for morrowind with out lag hopefully I can download mods.

You likely have an integrated video card, right?
That flickering is called z-fighting and there's nothing you can do about it. (besides buying new hardware)

Not sure what you mean. This doesn't sound like any of the usual problems. Can you take a screenshot of it?

Assuming you don't have MGE installed...

Open your Morrowind.ini and find the [General] section, there is a line which says:
Screen Shot Enable=0
Switch that to Screen Shot Enable=1
Save changes.

Now, when in-game, press the Print Screen button on your keyboard. The picture will be saved in your main Morrowind folder.

Host the pic on a site and post us a link.
