Morroblivion: The Resurrection of Morrowind

I noticed recently that the signs for the guilds in Balmora (probably others as well) seemed to be slowly turning on the Y axis. This starts to make the look really odd. So I opened up the morowind_ob.esm up in the construction set and saw there was a script attached to the signs called "0SignRotate". I thought "well this is obviously the problem, but why would they put a script on that does this?"

I assume this was done to make the signs sway as the player was walking up but the problem is the rotation sighted in the script is the Y axis, and the signs swing on the X axis.

This is the script:

scriptName 0SignRotate

float timer
float swingTime
float swingSpeed
float startAngle

Begin GameMode
if (GetDistance "Player" > 2000)
Return
endif
Set swingTime to 1
Set timer to (GetSecondsPassed + timer)
if (timer < swingTime)
Rotate Y 2
elseif (timer < (3 * swingTime))
Rotate Y -2
elseif (timer < (4 * swingTime))
Rotate Y 2
else
Set timer to 0
SetatStart
endif
End

Anyway I fixed this in my game by making an esp that deleted the signs , making a save game with it on, then disabling it and enabling another esp that comments out the entire script "just to be safe"

You may want to change the axis on this script soon since it rotates a little every time a PC comes near a sign. If changing the axis doesn’t solve it then you should remove the script altogether.

Thanks,

EDIT: Now that I think about it Oblivion does not need this script to run at all, since it has real physics to case the signs to sway. The best solution would be to comment out the script like I did in the esm for the next release, or delete the script alltogether.
