Share Your Load List
The Mod Discovery Thread
DISCLAIMER: If this thread is made redundant by a duplicate post made previously, I apologize for the multiplicity.
I don't know about anyone else on here (if this is just me, then I'll just continue lurking and let this thread die), but whenever someone posts their load list I love to look it over and see what mods they have active and compare it my own. I've found many interesting and useful mods this way which aren't typically included in the popular lists we have available. Mods that I would have otherwise never heard of.
I was just doing this recently and wanted to see even more modlists to peruse. Being tired of searching the forum for help threads where people would post their lists, I began to wonder if anyone else found mods this way (or may be persuaded to my mod discovery method). [EDIT] Yes, this is a thread created for selfish reasons but I think it can be to everyone else's benefit who's willing to look through the common to find the uncommon.
The Purpose of this thread is to share [names of / links to] mods you use with other players to expose less well-known mods while at the same time propagating the popularity of mods in the mainstream by potentially encouraging players to try them out if they haven't yet.
The Scope of this thread encompasses any plugins, replacers, save games, Total Conversions, or even Modder's Resources - though the focus is mainly on plugin-based modifications for Morrowind which appear in the Load List.
The Guidelines for posting in this thread are outlined below.
- If you share your whole Load List, feel free to highlight the ones you think may be of interest - but you never know what someone else might find there that you've taken for granted! So don't be afraid to highlight a mod you think everyone has heard of, odds are, not everyone has.
- If you'd simply like to share some hidden jewels of modding, feel free to simply post some links and information without a need for your whole Load List - that's why this is the Mod Discovery Thread!
- Go ahead and thank posters for the mods you found in their list. You don't have to contribute mod names and links to contribute to the thread.
- It is acceptable to ask posters what a particular plugin does if you can't find it for yourself by searching or guessing.
- This thread is NOT designed to be used to find mods. Use http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1411037-mod-detective-xxv/ if you are searching for a particular mod which doesn't appear to be available from the well-known mod sites or http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1305729-mod-recommendations-for-new-players/ if you are looking for comprehensive mod lists or suggestions.
- This thread is NOT designed to answer questions regarding mod installation or troubleshooting any issues related to mods mentioned within or outside of this thread. Questions of this nature should look for answers first in http://www.gamesas.com/topic/106063-morrowind-mods-faq/.
- Find some new mods to sugar your game experience with!

How to Post Your Load List
There are several ways to get your load order using the http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Ini_Settings, http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Tes3Mod:Wrye_Mash, and http://code.google.com/p/mlox/wiki/Mlox
- The Morrowind.ini is located in the root directory for Morrowind. You can copy your load list from the Morrowind.ini by scrolling all the way to the bottom of the file and copying the list under [Game Files] - this will include all your active master and plugin files.
- Wrye Mash can generate your load order from the saves tab: highlight your Save File, then in the Masters box (bottom Right) right click on the Files header and select Copy List. Then just Ctrl+V where ever. [Thanks Pluto!]
- mlox is a tool for sorting your load order, it creates a file called current_loadorder.out. If you open this file with notepad you'll see that it contains your current load order, as expected.
Once you have your Load List, it is courteous and efficient to post it in a spoiler BBCode. Do this by placing [spoiler#]Example[/spoiler#] at the beginning and end of your list (remove the "#" from the code) - or select the Special BBCode button from the Reply Toolbar and choose Spoiler. It should look like this:
Want to Share a Mod But Can't Find a Working Link?
- http://www.tessearch.com/ is a search engine created by Yacoby which can search various mod sites to quickly find a mod you're looking for.
- http://mw.modhistory.com/ (MMH) is the go to site for finding old mods which are hard to find, if nothing shows up in TES Search, check MMH.
- When all else fails, try the http://archive.org/web/web.php web archive.
- If you feel that you've tried everything and still can't find the mod, ask in the Mod Detectives thread.

http://mw.modhistory.com/download--4421 - [Author: Setiror] I haven't tested this one yet, but it adds a Mages Guild Hall to Mournhold proper. Sounds like an enjoyable quest mod.

If you like lore friendly mods and haven't checked out Von Djangos' mods, check them all out now.

http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=9537 - [Author: DonnerGott] This is a newer mod which I think goes well with mods like Real Wildlife by making Cliff Racers have custom nests and eggs making them fit into the ecosystem a bit better.

http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=6941 - [Author: Magius and Huskobar] This mod won't be for everyone, but I have a fun time with it. This mod adds consequences to failing a spellcast. So be careful of that fireball blowing up in your face, accidentally teleporting into the wilderness, or getting thrown up into the air by a failed jump spell.
