Hi all. Spent the past hour trying to get tesfaith to move the island of Tusar so I can add Deux Ex Machinia to my setup. Tesfaith keeps crashing on me with a standard "tesfaith.exe has run into a problem" error however. I have used it successfully twice in the past to move small islands added by other mods but no luck with this one.

Anyone able to assist?



Many thanks!

ps - what's the limit of mods again? 250, 255 or 256? Is that a combined total of esm and esp files? Thx.

There is no need for a separate thread when you have already http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1116916-relz-deus-ex-machina-a-steampunkyish-mod/page__view__getlastpost in the relz thread. Please use that instead. Thank you.

Errr...

This thread is asking if anyone has a version of Tusar that has been moved. The post in the Deus Ex MAchina thread points out the conflict, which AFAIK had not previously been reported.

Why ask in the Deus Ex Machina thread for an altered copy of a mod that Trainwiz didn't make?

So, yes, there is a need for this thread.


@ Mr KWMonk: IIRC, the mod limit is 254 (ESMs and ESPs) assuming you only have one save game. So ESS + ESM + ESP < 256

I'm not aware of any moved versions of Tusar. Maybe abot'll drop by as I think he's moved a few mountains in his time...

Maybe http://forumplanet.gamespy.com/morrowind_cs_general/b49689/7290130/r7290132/ might help. Are you using the latest version of TESFaith, http://projectmanager.f2s.com/morrowind/TESfaith.html?

Did a quick check with TesFaith# and looks like you could just "nudge it" 4 cells to east (and maybe 1 north) and it wouldn't conflct with Deux Ex mod. I'd use the command line beta version for actually moving it though. The thread Dragon32 provided covers the likely culprits (my guess is the last entry was a deleted item). If you don't have any luck, I'll try and do it.

EDIT: Tried it with the beta version...crashes. Have to figure out where the crash is happening. Let me know if you have any luck. I'll try to find it later tonight or tomorrow if I can.

EDIT2: Success!
I haven't tested it out yet though. I ran it through Tes3cmd (results below) then moved it 4 east and 1 north.

I did check Tesfaith# and the land shows that it was moved. Unfortunately the mod changed the region of 0,0 to "Island of Tusar" and when I moved the region that one moved too. So I'll have to go back and fix it. I'll likely undo the region change for 0,0 then when I move the island that cell doesn't move too.

Many thanks. After running tes3cmd over the Tusar esp I was able to shift the island.

Will test it out over the coming weeks.

Appreciate the help.

I don't know if my relocation of Tusar ( cells 2,26 - 7,31 ) is compatible with Deux Ex Machinia, anyway http://www.mediafire.com/?2cn9epksf64o410 for anybody interested (no guarantee it works as I did not play through it already).

Thx abot. I just finished regenerating grass in the correct cells and then distant land. Will see how mine goes and use yours as a reference/fall back.

:foodndrink:

I did get it moved and it worked (i didn't do any quests but everything else seemed fine). Hope it works fine for you.

Man I should just move DEM so far north it's not even funny, and fix all these conflict issues.

Don't stress mate, you've done enough work creating the mod as it is!

:)
