Morrowind Install Path

Submitted by mastaalucard on

I did a quick check through the forums and didn't see anything about this, and i NEED to know.  In the ReadMe file it says to reinstall Oblivion to C:\Games\Oblivion and C:\Games\Morrowind. This wasn't all that clear to me so will someone please explain? Do i need to reinstall Oblivion to the Oblivion folder AND Morrowind or the games to their respective folder. If the each game goes into their respective folder, how do i change the pather for morrowind? My installer won't let me change it from the default install path.

The only thing that matters is that Oblivion is NOT installed anywhere inside "Program Files" (et. al.) It does not really matter where you actually put it as long as it's not c:\Program Files...

So Morrowinds directory doesn't matter at all? Alright thanks

Err, hate to say this but, apparently its not good to put Morrowind in Program files. Thats just what I've seen in guides like this: http://knotstheinane.blogspot.com/p/morrowind-modding-guide.html

How is it relevent?  You don't need MW installed to play Morroblivion since the project started getting distributed as resources instead of a converter.

Actually Morroblivion has an installer that checks for Morrowind GOTY and Oblivion now...
