On Mac, in need of help.

Intro:
im an Xbox guy. playing morrowind on xbox from launch day till now. im ditching the console because cpmputer version has 2017 graphics. Also i have a Macbook Pro. so yeah.

Current Situation:
by amazing luck and help from my younger brother i was able to not only get OpenMW to run on my (MAC) computer but also installed a few things to a few things. I have SOME Overhaul 3.0 mods on my game now.

The Issue:
I have no idea what im doing and the youtube videos of "MorroWinning with mac" is nothing but a fail to me. I have SOME Overhaul 3.0 weapon texture, god texture and lighting. Everything else is vanilla. Which is totally weird because that mod has redone a lot more than just that. i have no idea how to install everything or make it all work. Also, I have 0.43.0 of OpenMW and i hear of a 0.6.2 being released. On the openmw.org main page i see ADVANCED options in the launcher ON A MAC! But when i open mine those settings aren't there. I'm not a windows guy and not even a computer guy :/

What I want:
I just want to play with overhaul 3.0 and have cool features like.... the ability to hire anyone to be my companion just like that one guy in Tribunal. Or the multiplayer i keep hearing about. or just play the game with kickass 2017 graphics.

pls help

TES3MP is a different project that adds multiplayer to OpenMW and is up to version 0.6.2

OpenMW provides releases for Mac, but TES3MP does not because its developers don't own Macs and thus have trouble coming up with Mac builds.

Seeing as you're running OpenMW and doing things pertaining just to OpenMW, you may be best off asking questions on their Support forum:

Pro tip: If you want to PC game, ditch the mac. They are awful in every single way. Good luck getting anything to run on a Mac, much less a multiplayer mod. As far as modding goes, especially adding mods AND having mutiplayer, it is not exactly novice level stuff.

Steps for learning to mod PC:

1. Get a gaming PC.
2. Get Skyrim (the easiest game to mod, by FAR).
3. Go to REALVISION ENB on Nexusmods.com.
4. Follow the install guide for it (all 20 steps or whatever).
5. Learn, young grasshopper.

From there you can get into more advanced modding on less modder friendly games. This is how I started several years ago. Now modding games is extremely easy.
