📋 About This Mod

Assetless No Glow

MWSE-Lua mod

You've had no-glow. You've had pluginless no-glow. Now, behold the mild wonder of assetless no-glow!

Requirements & Installation:

This mod uses the pre-release 2. 1-branch of MWSE, currently in development. By using this mod, you're basically asking to be a tester! If you encounter any issues please post a report, ideally on the MWSE bug tracker. You can download the latest nightly build from the link below.

This mod requires Morrowind Graphic Extender (MGE-XE) version 0. 10. 1. Older versions will not work with MWSE 2. 0+! Additionally, it will require the latest nightly build of MWSE 2. 1.

To install the mod, extract the archive into your Data Files folder. There is no ESP to activate.

  • []Prevents the plastic wrap effect from being created.

    []Compatible with any mod that makes use of the enchanted effect textures, such as Visually Filled Soul Gems.

  • Slightly reduces both processing and memory usage. This is because it prevents the creation of "invisible" texture effects and associated tint maps. Other no-glow mods let these be created, but make the textures invisible.
