Note that installing this will require some reading and a lot of checkbox selection. Also, it fixes many issues that are terribly broken that you wouldn't otherwise even realize were broken, like certain skills that get worse the higher they are rather than better, and other strangeness. While direct exe-modifying is generally something that I would prefer to avoid, I've used this in the past and it seems to be highly reliable. Morrowind Code Patch (This providers code fixes as well as design, balance and interface changes that the Patch Project was unable to resolve using the construction set. Highly recommended that you install this first after the base game plus expansions.) Morrowind Patch Project, BTB release (This fixes a long list of quest/dialogue/misc scripting errors that the official releases never did. The primary purpose of this list is for people who are not using Morrowind Overhaul. And since I can't install Overhaul myself.I can't speak for its compatibility with the Telvanni and game-rebalance mods. If you're using Overhaul, you don't need either of the patches, nor any of the cosmetics mods. (Note: Morrowind Overhaul is mutually exclusive/redundant with nearly everything after this point. Note that most of items on the following list require both expansions, so if you're using vanilla Morrowing only, this post won't help you much. If you don't have GOTY, get the patch here). Install order: Morrowind, Tribunal, Bloodmoon (If you have the Game of the Year edition, the official Bloodmoon patch isn't required. There are of course lots more mods (trees, BTB rebalance, piratelord's creatures, disappearing plants when gathering, etc.) many of which a lot of people like, but I think 8+ hours of searching and installing is enough, and a surprising number of popular mods have unresolved bugs and/or incompatibility issues with other mods (some of which are on this list.) Additionally, nothing on the following list requires the Script or Graphics Extender mods, which seem to cause problems for some people.
So.here's the list of mods (with not-dead links yay!) that I've located and managed to get working. Only to discover that many classic mods have become difficult to find, with links on the above lists now dead. So, starting from the BTB and UESP recommended mod lists, I've spent quite a few hours combing the web for Morrowind mods. Sadly, it doesn't seem to want to install on my computer. I finally decided to download and install it. It's a 1.6 gig consolidated install for critical pacthes as well as dozens ofteh more popular visual mods. So, version 3.0 of the Morrowind Overhaul Project has been out for a couple months now.
