📋 About This Mod
Summary
On one of DEGs showcase videos there was a suggestion in the comments that there should be a foyada that is still flowing with lava. I took the idea and ran with it. Foyada Ashur-Dan is essentially empty; no dungeons, no mods touching it, and acts as a natural barrier between the Southern Ashlands and Molag Amur proper so is now a nice landmark to properly separate the two.
The main .esp floods Foyada Ashur-Dan with lava, using OAAB assets and fiery motes of floating ash. The optional plugin takes those OAAB motes and adds them to all the lava pools in Molag Amur not just the new river for consistency.
Compatibility
No landscape edits, only the addition of lava, steam vents, and fiery motes. Removes any spawns and rocks below the lava surface to keep the fps hit down, and moves a few trees.
Does not touch Red Mountain at all.
Uviriths Legacy and its various branches - use the Stepped version under optionals.
Requirements
A River of Fire is a small environmental mod for Morrowind that floods Foyada Ashur-Dan with lava and optionally adds burning ash motes to all lava pools in Molag Amur. It has 127 endorsements and was last updated in April 2024.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple, focused mod that does exactly what it says—no bloat.
- Decent community support with 127 endorsements.
- Recent update (April 2024) suggests it's still maintained.
⚠️ Cons
- Very niche—only affects one location and optional particles.
- No screenshots or detailed install instructions provided.
- May conflict with other mods that alter Foyada Ashur-Dan or Molag Amur.
For Morrowind players who want to spice up the Ashlands with a fiery visual overhaul. If you're a lore purist or prefer vanilla landscapes, skip this—it's purely cosmetic and changes the feel of the area.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to load this mod after any other mods that modify Foyada Ashur-Dan to avoid conflicts.
- If you use a mod manager, enable the optional ash motes plugin separately if you want that effect.
- Test the mod in a new save or after backing up your current save to avoid issues.
