As a player, I don't mind the configuration menu, but when trying to test a mod or system issues the configuration is a pain. I'm dealing with a new install of Morrowind,and all my mods, and trying to get MGE to run decently on my old computer. So when I bring in a test character, and MGE knocks my FPS below 5 and the pointer will barely move, it's a pain to try to work through the configuration but you can't exit. Then it's back to back with NoM, so it takes as much as 5 minutes to exit out of a configuration that you know won't work within the first 10 seconds. It would be nice if configuration could be avoided or even just delayed.
As I said, I found out what I did with COV clothes, but after overwriting everything with the hotfix I have Imperial Knights wandering about covered in big yellow markers... I was wondering if this had happened to anyone else...
