CS with Steam : III

» Sat Jun 18, 2011 3:03 pm

Is it possible to get the CS to work with the Steam version of Morrowind? I found the CD with the construction set, but I'm having problems with it. When I try to load any master file other than Morrowind.esm, I get tons of errors, the first of which being

Chunk size 10 too big in chunk WEAT_ID in form REGN_ID.
Max size is 8, data truncated to "|#||".
Continue running executable?

And then...

Could not find sound 'wind calm1' in load for region 'Mournhold Region'.
Continue running executable?

And so on. There are hundreds. I believe these are the errors you get when Tribunal is installed after Bloodmoon, but that couldn't be the case as I have the Steam GOTY version. Any ideas?

I get the same thing. I haven't played with the CS much, so this is the first I noticed it. Perhaps all that's needed is the AllowYesToAll=1 line in the ini and just let the errors run.

Oh yes, I forgot to mention: once all the errors are finished the CS crashes.

Same here. The ini change just gets you there faster.

Here's a fix, although it requires a physical copy of Bloodmoon. http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1073542-getting-the-cs-to-work-with-the-steam-version/

Hopefully this isn't the only way...

EDIT: I guess you're already aware of that one Yasgur, as you're the one who closed the thread.

But I know plenty of people here use the Steam version, and I'm sure plenty of them would like to have access to the CS; so I'm surprised that information and discussion about this seems to be so rare.
