Find any CELLs where fog density in DATA is different from AMBI subrecords: same thing, this can be automatically fixed by tes3cmd multipatch.

Note: I recently had problem with this, it may be my graphic card/drivers (ATI 4830), but I had to raise this to 0.1 to make it work in some particular cells, so maybe 0.1 would be a safer value.

If you are a player it can be easily fixed for all your loaded mods using tes3cmd multipatch option.

Find CELLs that trigger the FOGBUG: good to know, if you are a modder fixing your mod, better fix it in TESCS assigning to interiors a fog value of 0.01 instead of 0.

Finds potentially buggy case where INFO dialogs have had their IDs changed, Shows duplicate and modified INFO dialogs: unintentional changes of this kind are a common source of dialog compatibility problems, so better fix those if you know what you are doing.

Find all records in the plugin that override records in its Masters: usually not problem, may be by design.

Find duplicate (i.e.: 'dirty/unclean') records that are unchanged from one of the masters: this also will be cleaned by our tools.

Find deprecated usage of Leveled List scripting functions on standard Bethesda Lists: this is rare to find in recent mods, you could need a proper patch for certain old mods.

List Evil GMSTs: they will be cleaned automatically by our tools, anyway this is good to know and often an index of mod author accuracy (see also GMST contamination).

myself in water life mod) and stated in the readme that a Tribunal/Bloodmoon/GOTY engine is needed to run the mod, so as usual take a look at the readme to decide.

Find out if the plugin has an implicit dependency on Tribunal/Bloodmoon functions because it uses them but does not list the expansion as a Master: in this case, you may want to set the proper masters, just load the master with the mod in TESCS and save the mod this may generate evil GMSTs, but we will clean them after. However, note that a modder may have willingly not included explicit dependency in case master resources are not needed (e.

Find out if the plugin defines autocalc'ed spell: these can cause problems (enemies killing you with too powerful spells) because they are automatically used by NPCs, so if you find these spells too powerful you may want to edit the mod in TESCS and set them as not autocalculated.

My thought about tes3lint report (tes3lintout.txt file in our example) parts: I change the mod name each time, a little annoying, but I've not found a good way of integrate it to Mash yet. Perl.exe -a 'mymodname.esp' > tes3lintout.txt I have it named inside the Data Files folder, and I use it from a tes3lint.bat batch file containing this line: Then, I suggest you have Perl installed and working, so we can use tes3lint to find information about possible mod problems. Selecting it from the mod list and looking at the right Mash panel, we can realize what are the masters of the mod. Now, let's start having a look at your mod (we will call it mymodname.esp in our examples) using Mash.

I'm using Total Commander/ Double Commander to copy/move/compare files between folders, naturally you can use your preferred file manager, Mash installers or even standard Windows file manager.

Basically, it is just a matter of copying the entire Morrowind folder somewhere else.Īfter having extracted the mod package to some folder using your preferred archive tool (I like portable 7-Zip included in LiberKey, but you can use anything you like), let's see the readme and eventually follow the instructions. For in-depth explanation about having multiple Morrowind installations, read here. I suggest you keep your modding/mod fixing work to a dedicated copy of Morrowind folder without touching the original Morrowind installation.

Imagine you are a player willing to install a new mod or a modder willing to make your mod as clean and error-proof as possible (I would say 'clean as an elven arse', 10 points to you if you recognize the quote without googling). you should be one of those couple of modders/mod users willing to learn and use my best practices. you should be computer and Morrowind-savvy enough to be able to install and make work most of the tools.
