Right, after picking up a new PC and getting back into Morrowind now that I can actually play it decently with MGE and mods and so on, I decided to take a visit to my favourite home, Castle Solstheim by Korana.

Upon completing the mission to gain entry, I walk into the main hall to greet my new staff and assert myself in my home home and I am greeted with http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii44/Cool_Shady/MGEScreenshot1.jpg And I just can't figure out what's causing it.

I know that the cell is loading because whenever I load something else I can see the SSAO outline of everything and I also opened it up in the CS to make sure and sure enough, it's fine there too.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

seems like the fogbug to me. http://code.google.com/p/mlox/wiki/Tes3cmd will be able to fix it.

Looks like the "nvidia black screen bug" which affects some nvidia cards (and maybe some other manufacturers also). It happens in interior cells, when the fog density setting for that cell is set to zero.

I ran tes3lint on the solstheim castle mod and found some cells that would tickle that graphics bug:

Clean Solstheim_Castle_v1.1.esp: FOGBUG MISSVER
[FOGBUG]: Cells with zero fog density setting:
Solstheim Castle, Dance Hall
Solstheim Castle, Great Hall
Solstheim Castle, Laboratory
ken's test hole

One way to fix them is to use the Construction Set to create a small patch for the mod that sets the fog density for that cell to something other than zero, (I use 0.01). I have a program (http://code.google.com/p/mlox/wiki/Tes3cmd) that can create a patch for all your current plugins automatically (see http://code.google.com/p/mlox/wiki/Tes3cmd#Patch_Fogbugged_CELLs).

Perfect! That's got it sorted. Cheers guys!
