Post by Anonymous »

I was recently suspended from Morrowind.com caue of some scammer! so you guys are my only hope! And plz do not be mean to me I just need help, I dont have time for you guys to yell at me.

Ok, I got my game yesterday (Morrowind GOTY for PC) and I installed it (2 hours) and everything, of corss stupid me just downloads "Better bodies" and6 or 7 more mods and add-ons without having a ZIP program. So I got to list 'o Mods and download ZIP GENUIS and I then I deleted all my old mods except better bodies and go to download like 4-5 more mods. I then go to the ZIPGENUIS thing were you move the files to the Morrowind game. I go to the place were you put in the "X" in the boxes the only download that was there was Better Bodies and all the ones that came with it. So I go to Morrowind.com and start a post about it, then AS SOON as I get my answer I get banned! Then I make a "Morrowind Downloads" folder on my desktop, and also a backup, so I download only four mods I cheack out the Morrowind game again and it STILL says nothing but better bodies and the ones that came with it, again, I need a step by step or a sulotion to this problem PLEASE!


Thank you very, very, very MUCH!!

Are you sure you were banned? They don't just ban you willy nilly at ESF. If they did my mysterious alterego there would have been banned a while ago.

As for your problem, well, what is your problem? I can't really tell.

I'll try to help you:

1. unzip your downloaded mod (only a single one at a time, this is simpler) into an empty directory.

2. have a look inside that directory:

- if there is a directory called "Data Files", copy that directory to your .../Morrowind/ directory. Answer the question, if you want to overwrite files with the same name with yes.

- if there is not, copy the modName.esp file into your .../Morrowind/Data Files/ directory. Do the same with the possibly existing Meshes or Textures directories.

3. delete the unzipped files from your former empty directory and start doing the same thing with the next mod.

In general, you can say: all the .esp files have to be placed inside the .../Data Files/ directory, all the Meshes inside the .../Data Files/Meshes directory, and so on.

Hope, that was clear enough. If not, feel free, to ask again :-)
