Morrowind Graphics Extender

Post » Thu Oct 01, 2009 4:33 am

Hi, I was wondering if there are installers for MGE other than the 3.3.2 version. I have integrated graphics and after installing a modded driver and another program to set some registry entries for software shaders, I finally got the 3.3.2 version to work. But this is the only one with an installer, and older versions and newer versions of MGE without an installer cause Morrowind to crash every time. Is there something that the 3.3.2 version does in the setup process that doesn't happen when just copying the files manually? I would really like to use some shaders that aren't compatible with the version that I am currently forced to use. Thanks for any insight.

MGE 3.3.2 was one of the last version that supported what is now old/bad hardware. If later version won't run, you hardware probably isn't up to it.


Anyway, this made me shout (mentally): correlation doesn't imply causation :P

Well, I just thought that because 3.0.2 didn't work either, maybe that was the reason.

Ah. However, it probably isn't. The installer just does what you would do manually.

Ok, I thought maybe the installer set some registry settings or something.
