    Glad to see they got that fixed. Of course I hardly use any mods at all, mainly just the official ones off Bethesda's site and MGE and now Tamriel Rebuilt.

    Natural Environments is really sexy.

    You have to live with the fact that you'll never find the loot that enemies who die outside drop, but it's a small price to pay.

    So only because I just received my 24" widescreen LCD am I going to post some wonderful new Morrowind screencaps.

    Oblivion what?

    Spoilered for ridiculous breach of H scroll.

    Dang, MGE has gotten a lot sexier. I think that might be better than Oblivion's own Distant Land.

    I really like the blur on the distant objects, while my ex-roommate would probably throw a fucking fit if he had to look at that.

    I think it looks fantastic too, I've still got to adjust the way it draws in objects, it's a little too close for me.

    My ONLY gripe with it, is that in order to get that nice blurring effect on distant objects, it gets applied to the sky as well. Which is unfortunate because I think the sky in Morrowind is better than in any game I've ever played.

    I installed this again earlier this week
    found out that a nude mod was somehow still installed (from better bods or something, iunno) when I took the clothes off a corpse and there was an uncircumcised penis sittin' right there
    so I made a naked Grace Jones that hops around with a bow and arrow. just killin' shit

    but then I realized why I stopped playing it before
    motion sickness

    edit: morrowind, it is the game I am referring to

    I would be so goddamn angry if I couldn't play Morrowind due to motion sickness. Do you know what causes it? I hear sometimes it is due to the framerate, refresh rate, field of view, etc., so if you're able you might try fiddling with those settings (via MGE or some such).

    all the elder scroll games, call of duty 4, classic doom, and grand theft autos cause it. I hate whatever these games have in common

    I'd check the refresh rates that those games play at. Maybe they share a frequency that causes it.

    Regarding MGE, there was a pretty big breakthrough for it a couple days ago. Previously, nobody had been able to access the morrowind depth buffer, but a new technique was discovered and it's looking promising. Already there is a beta release of a depth-of-field effect, and it looks pretty spectacular. With this new information available, new shaders are now able to be created, such as SSAO and 'God rays'. The days of using the barely-compatible, sometimes rather sluggish ENBseries are numbered.

    I have friends who get some kind of specifically-designed armband made for seasick people to play games like this. They say it helps a lot, I'll try to find the actual name of the product. Chewing gum also apparently eases the motion sickness while playing to a decent degree.

    Once again Eric rolls in and brings the sauce!

    That's a good thing too since I can't run or load ENBseries more than 3 or 4 times in sequence (say reloading a save or starting up the game) without it causing MGE to fail with the distant lands.

    if you're talking about the armband I think you are, it's homeopathic and you can thank the placebo effect for its success

    So does anyone else turn off the "only use a weapon's best attack" option. I find it adds at least alittle strategy into combats. Swords now encourage you to strafe, spears to constantly advance or retreat, and axes and hammers to stand still and take some damage just to deal out more.

    I mean, kinda, but combat still stops being difficult after an hour or two worth of gameplay. You have to try really hard not to become all-powerful in Morrowind/Oblivion.

    also, since this is just a single player game, I don't ever feel obligated to make an optimized character. I tend to gimp myself so that I have to think my way around combats rather than become a shining god.

    With Jink, Levitate, Summons, restore health items, chameleon, invisibility, various artificats, playing a warrior of pretty much any type, or alchemy (oh god, alchemy), it's kinda difficult to avoid. It's not like the combat system has a whole lot of depth to it in the first place.
