GCD not working properly?

Post » Tue Oct 19, 2010 5:13 am

I have Morrowind on Steam and I have quite a few mods working properly but I don't think GCD is working the way that it is supposed to. When I typed my starting stats (based on what pops up for the same setup when the guy asks about stamping papers in the beginning) into the calculator and my current skills the numbers for my attributes, hp, magika, and level are different from in game.

The mods I have working right now are MGE, Better Bodies, Better Heads, Morrwind Visual Pack, Balmora Compilation (I think that's the name), Alchemy Storage Helper, an ambient sound mod, GCD, and I believe I tried Morrowind Comes Alive and Morrowind Advanced but I don't have them running. Morowind Advanced just throws up a ton of "texture not found" errors then one that crashes to the desktop before a load completes.

Back to the topic at hand, when I used the provided calculator without editing anything other than my starting stats, skills, and current skills I get a whole lot of numbers that aren't the same as in game. Like showing that I am a level 3 in game but something like a level 9 in the calculator (I'm at work so I don't have the exact numbers but I can get them later). I think the problem stems from installing and enabling GCD mid-game even though that is supposed to be OK. Should I be worried that my level isn't going up and I will miss out on a lot of enemies or the fact that I added about 15 each (since I started wondering if GCD was working right) to Long Blade and Heavy Armor along with additions to Armorer and my attributes didn't change at all? Or my health or magicka? Let me know what you think because I think something might be up when I'm using multiple healing potions in order to beat a Diseased Kagouti though I have 64 strength (calculator says I should have 61), 70+ Long Blade, 70+ Heavy armor, and better than or equal to steel armor in every slot. This is using a Steel Saber by the way.

My starting setup was (I realized I could have done this better later)

Race:
Nord

Specialization
Combat

Birthsign:
The Warrior

Main Attributes:
Strength
Intelligence

Major:
Destruction
Restoration
Long Blade
Heavy Armor
Conjuration

Minor
Armorer
Block
Security
Sneak
Speechcraft.

Edit: I also received a "You can't train this skill beyond its governing attribute" message when I tried to train Block recently. Seemed odd with my understanding of GCD but it could be correct. Let me know if that is actually possible in GCD but I didn't think it would be since the skills are supposed to raise the attributes.
