The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind

Graphic and text improvement mods still used in 2017?
Hello,

I've been reading a little into basic / essential mods for new players but I'm feeling lost looking at mods written about in 2010 or earlier. I wondered what mods players recommend for a basic graphics update, which they still use.

The old graphics don't bother me too much but I would like to improve the clarity and size balance of the in game text in particular. The journal text is comfortable enough for me but the fine text on the menus is either bigger and fuzzier than I'd like or painfully small.

Your help would be much appreciated. Thank you. :)

I suggest using Better Dialogue Font with optional Bigger fonts.

Better Dialogue Font: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/36873/?

(Optional)
Bigger Vanilla Font: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/42420/?
MORe ReadAble Bigger UI Fonts http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/42934/?

You can choose one of these UI mods.

Thank you very much for your reccommendations. I've set up the Code Patch with Better Dialogue Font, but my monitor isn't good enough for Bigger Vanilla Font so I had to deactivate that one. My monitor goes up to 1600 by 1200 which is below the reccommendation for that mod, and the text turned into gold boxes. My game is now comfortably readable at a lower res which will work until I can go monitor shopping. :D

Hi Archibold,

Curiously, in regard UI and specially font-mods, never existed a great diversity of mods for Morrowind.

But in addition to aforementioned mods by "Omgwtfbbqkitten" you have some recent mods as this:

Sovngarde - Morrowind Font Replacer: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/44908/?

or

Arukinns Better UI: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/42139/?

As general graphic mods, most new players install Morrowind Sound and Graphic Overhaul (MSGO), but is really outdated right now... A great amount of high quality mods were released in the last 3-4 years, so they aren't included in MSGO.

Some examples of high quality "new" (post 2013) mods, not included in MSGO:

1) All the RR (resdayn Revival) series are really, some of the best graphics mods ever, and all are "recent":

-Better Meshes. The difference is spectacular: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43266/?

-Betther ships and boats. Simply beautiful: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/44001/?

-Morrowind statues replacer: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43348/?

2) Tyddy mods, some of the best vanilla-like texture mods:

The Arkitektora of Vvardenfel series,

Redoran: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43003/? ;

Telvanni: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43530/?

Hlaalu: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43098/?

Velothi: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43511/?

Shack and docks (this is reaaally good!): http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43520/?

Sewers: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43144/?

Daedric: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43486/?

or the full Dwemer retexture: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/44264/?

on the other hand other mods as Dunmeri urns: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43541/? or his creatures mods...

3) Some specific mods:

Waterfalls bump mapped: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/42405/?
Ket's potions and beverages retexture ( very good combined with aforementioned RR's "Better Messhes"): http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/44781/?
Arukinns Better Books and Scrolls: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43100/? ; Telvanni mesh imporvements: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43100/?

Etc, etc, etc...

I think that we need to made a new Morrowind Graphic Overhaul to 2018 and afterwards, because the quantity and quality of new graphic mods not included in MGSO.

Before that I think could be a good idea to write an extensive and updated modding guide to Morrowind at 2017-2018... I will try to write it in the next months.
