Morroblivion Installation Instructions

[insert image here]

Welcome to the Morroblivion installation section, below are the detailed instructions for setting up Morroblivion. If your experienced with TES mods chances are you won't need to read much further. However, anyone who is new to the realm of Oblivion should read, reread and triple read these instructions.

Requirements

Notice: Also listed on the Morroblivion Project Release page.

Installing the Morroblivion Master

Notice: The installer may differ slightly in text, this is due to outdated images.

Installing Resources with Wrye Bash

Installing Resources Manually

Updating Morroblivion and other Patches

Notice: When you first install Morroblivion, you will need to download the official update.

Setting up load order

These are great

These are great instructions.  Installation went quickly and without a hitch ......once I really took the warning seriously to not have STEAM files within Program Files.  once I had them safely ensconced outside of /Program files, everything worked very well.    I am still hearing Oblivion music though---probably didn't carefully read how/where to get the original Morrowind music...

It's included in the resource archive in the '01 Morrowind Music' sub-package.

However, if you install it, you'll get a mix of Morrowind and Oblivion music, because engine just grabs a random mp3 file from music folder.

If you want only Morrowind music, you'll need to manually remove Oblivion music tracks from Data\Music\Battle, Dungeon, Explore and Public subfolders. (Don't forget to backup them first!)

3) WB will create 'Oblivion
3) WB will create 'Oblivion Mods' folder on the same level as your 'Oblivion' folder. (e.g. if you have Oblivion installed in C:\Oblivion, it will be C:\Oblivion Mods) Place the resource archive you downloaded earlier into Oblivion Mods/Bash Installers folder. What resource archive did I download earlier please? I'm having a bit of trouble, now its yellow clouds with text that say "WTF!! I'm missing texture" and falling through the ship. Thank you for your help!

Would your Morrowind/Oblivion directory look something like this:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Oblivion

Or this?:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Oblivion\Data

I just tried to reinstall into my C:\Games, but Steam insisted that was a bad idea. How long did it take you to move the game into your drive and was it a specific process?

I downloaded the v060 part files that Rox posted then added the v061 update and packed it into a .rar. I then put it in the bash installers and I even put the folder that was unpacked into the bash installers folder as well and it is greyed out but instead of the square it showed a diamond and it was called a 'project' where as the square was called an 'archive'.

This is the source of your problem. Install the archives as they are provided.

Priority: low Playing this

Priority: low

Playing this game, I cannot begin to imagine how many hours of work it took. I'm very happy. Everything works great, with only a few bumps in the road that were easily fixed. On to my question:

I only have 1 missing mesh, and it's a wall hanging in the Morag Tong HQ. Odd, I know, to only have 1 (knock on wood). I followed the instructions as best I could and I have BOSS working out the load order. The only mod I have is minor (unlimited training) and shouldn't affect that for any reason. Is this a common mesh issue? Is there a way to fix this without reinstalling? Am I forced to deal with one mesh, in a single room that I hardly visit?

Alright, I see now. The mesh is in the archive, but it's in Morrowind nif format for some reason - that's why it wasn't caught by automatic utilities.

I'll make sure to replace it in the next update.

Hi,

Hi,
These instructions are great and any faults during the process were faults of my own. I've got through everything up to the Load Order done correctly. But the problem is, the Morrowind ESM does not show up in Wrye Bash. I don't know why but it doesn't exist even after several tries installing the Morroblivion Installer.exe. It is in my data file in my Oblivion directory by the way. Any idea what's wrong?

If it's in your Data folder, then it should be visible in WB. Are you sure it's not Morrowind_ob.esp? Do you have Windows Explorer set to show file extensions?

If it's missing, then something went wrong during Part II of installation. Does the Morroblivion Installer show any error messages?

will this mess up my current Oblivion and mods?

I don't see why it should. Morroblivion is just another Oblivion mod, only with large amount of content.

Thanks for the reply. I lied, I got more questions :D apologize if this next question is stupid but, will I still be able to play both Oblivion and Morroblivion separately when I choose to? I mean can I just disable Morroblivion and continue with my old Oblivion game? Is this all somewhere in instructions that I should read? Thanks

Um... yes, I guess. Morroblivion is not a separate game or anything - it is a mod which basically adds a new world. You can travel freely between Vvardenfell and Cyrodiil whenever you like.

If you uninstall it, you'll lose all Morrowind items and quest progress, but the base Oblivion game will still be the same.

I could not get Wrye Bash to

I could not get Wrye Bash to work and installed the resource file manually. Since I could not use Wrye Bash, I am now having trouble figuring out how to establish the load order since I have very little experience with mods and mod managers. I do have Nexus mod manager from the previous steps, and I was wondering if it was possible to do it from there? I'd appreciate any help anyone could give me. Thanks!

You can try right-clicking on the header in Installers tab and checking if the 'Enabled' option there is active. Alternatively, you can create folders manually.

Also, if you have WB installed, why can't you set load order there?

Hi there! I'm having a little

Hi there! I'm having a little trouble installing the Wrye Bash version of the v62 resource pack.

When I open Wrye Bash and select the resource pack there is no list of sub-packages that I can click on and individually install. I've tried re-copying the files to the bash installers folder as well as right clicking the package and selecting 'install' but all I get is a white box with a plus sign in the center with no visible changes besides. Have I done something wrong or is that the result that I am supposed to get?

No, it's not. Did you download the resource archive from the main post in Project Release thread or somewhere else? Or have you unpacked\repacked the downloaded archive?
