Morroblivion installation problems

Submitted by minimongo7 on

After following the installation using the complete installation pack, and installing Morrowind 58 and the morrowind 59 resources patch via Wyre Bash all had went well. I had installed all parts of the installation, and as far as following the installation readme I had done everything (All mods downloaded that make it actually run, ect ect) however I have encountered two problems.

1: When I attempt to load Oblivion to play Morroblivion the main menu has no mouse, nor any options. It's just the map loop and the ''book cover'' outline as default.

2: Whenever I attempt to play Morrowind the in-game experience is rather....ruined. It's simply black, everything is black, I feel as if I'm in the void or something.

So before I continue I do have Morrowind Overhaul 3.0 installed, and it is located in C:\Games\Steam\SteamApps\Common\Morrowind

I moved it to this location as requested (and needed) and simply updated my steam, and everything was to my belief fine prior to installation of Morroblivion, and with that, Oblivion was completely Vannila.

Oblivion is located in C:\Games\Oblivion by the way.

My load order after installing Morroblivion and all it's recommended files is now:

00  Oblivion.esm
01  Morrowind_ob.esm
02  Morrowind_ob - ClothingReplacer.esp
03  Unofficial Oblivion Patch.esp  [Version 3.4.1]
04  DLCShiveringIsles.esp
05  Unofficial Shivering Isles Patch.esp  [Version 1.5.2]
06  Morrowind_ob - Conversation.esp
07  Morrowind_ob - Unique Grass.esp
08  Morrowind_ob - Silt Striders.esp
09  ProtocolledDialogs.esp
0A  Vvardenfell_Imports.esp
0B  Morrowind_ob - MorroblivionTreeReplacer.esp
0C  Morrowind_ob - MorroblivionWater.esp
0D  Morrowind_ob - Morroblivion Maps.esp
0E  Morrowind_ob - UCWUS.esp  [Version BETA5]
0F  Morrowind_ob - Morroblivion_Chargen_And_Transport_Mod_v10.esp
10  Bashed Patch, 0.esp
 
Now before this I had patched it, and the Vanilla ran perfectly.
 
So yeah basically can you help me out with both problems? To be quite honest so long as I can play Morroblivion to my hearts content, and with Oblivions amazing stability (Yeah right) I couldn't care about Morrowind. So as long as someone can please help me with this, I would love you O_O
 
Thanks, and yes I've tried BOSS, batch patched it, and used OBMM.

Wow that was a very quick reply, much appreciated.

So I disabled all the other mods like you said, in the exact load order at that, and yet it still won't load. No other mods are enabled via anything else, and it still has the same problem?

Any ideas?

I tried it once more (By the way I am using script extender to load it) and after the main menu intro logo goes away it just crashes now, and I've tried playing it via the original Oblivion launcher, in which is says the data file is missing (even though it isn't) try re-installing Oblivion.

- I just deleted Oblivion.ini, same problem, Oblivion stops working as soon as the logo intro goes.

Before Installing Delete Oblivion.ini it will Put it Back in when you starta New Game.

Install Oblivion\Shivering Isles\Unofficial Patch Start Game..Then Install All Files Out of the Complete Installation and Only Activate (Morrowind_ob.esm)  to Make shore your Game is Still Running

Originally I did do exactly that, but I installed all Morroblivion stuff not just morrowind_ob.esm. 

I'm going to just do the main files then, after completely re-installing Oblivion (deleting everything linked to it including ini as you said) and I'll post here again when I'm done.

Thanks :)

I've done exactly what you've said, merely installing the game, official patches, unofficial patches and the shivering isles. After that I then downloaded and installed the master files...no problems whatsoever, it loaded and I could do anything I wished.

What's next?

Note: When I went to create a game all the meshes were missing, I'm presuming that's because it's missing the rest of the Morroblivion downloaded as crates and 'ship' items scattered the area.

Extract Complete Installation Cut and Paste Into Your ( Oblivion\Data ) Directory

Then Activate( Transport Mod and UCWUS ) these are your 2 Main Mods with Your Oblivion files plus Morrowind_ob.esm

Restart your Game

Download from www.tesnexus.com Purge_Cell_Buffers and install Purge_Cell-Buffers_Cell Change.esp,,Install ArchiveInvalidation and you Start your game with OBSE 20-21

If you are doing your Load Order with OBMM ,,Under Utilities you will see Update ArchiveInvalidation run It

So what's next, can I install other mods like Darnified UI?

And okay, will do.

If you Have Space on Hard Drive Create a Directory (  02_08_13_Oblivion ) and COPY your Oblivion Directory into IT, That way if It StuffUP you can Delete your Oblivion ++ your  .ini,  Copy Back outoff this Directory Game will be up and working Again

Put Purge Cell Buffers at Bottom of Load Order,Then Morroblivion Map if you run It, Then Transport Mod,Activate Other .esp See if your Game Runs

I've already created the backup, in fact I'm in the process of doing that now. As for the load order okay.

It's working utterly flawless now, will it be safe to add Vvadernfell imports?

Nevermind it's already included.
