I have installed Morrowind overhaul 3.0 on max settings; everything was working well for the few minutes I played with it. I wanted to update some of the mods that it came with so I got the latest Morrowind code patch and some new weapon textures.

I later found the latest MGE XE mod and downloaded and installed it manually (v0.9.10). After which, I realized that there was something very wrong with the shading only outside; interiors look great. It looks like there is this fog everywhere at all times; perhaps like there is too much contrast? Shadows look off on characters and some objects too. I would like to post a link to a picture but apparently I am not allowed?

With the version that came with the MGSO 3.0 (v0.9.9) it looked, as far I could tell, great. Everything was clear and just the distant fog that looked normal.

Now I would just stick with v0.9.9 but I realized that v0.9.10 had UI zoom. It was really getting hard to read all that dialogue on my 2560x1440 monitor. I tried bigger fonts but it would just cause issues with the topics section in dialogue menu but only when scrolling.

I have tried:

1) Completely re-installing morrowind and MGSO

2) Comparing the settings after installing MGSO with the setting after installing MGE XE 0.9.10 (all the same)

3) Tried turning off each shader setting; SSAO High, Bloom Fine, Depth of Field, Sunshafts, etc.

4) Turning off antialiasing (strangely, I get ~10FPS performance loss when turning it from 4x to off)

5) Running everything as Admin

6) Turning off anything related to anti aliasing and texture filtering in nvidia control panel.

I really don't know what the issue is. The UI scaling ability would be so useful to me right now. Does anyone have any ideas or UI alternatives?
