📋 About This Mod
tl;dr - Download the mod of your choice, put the files in a folder, open the configuration file with the program you choose, JoyToKey or Xpadder, keep the program open while playing the game.
If using JoyToKey version, make sure in the Options menu in the far right under the Show/Hide Buttons box that "Show all axes (8 way + POV x 4)" is the option selected since it won't work well without that option enabled.
Make sure you have the "Forced Off" option checked off under the Steam Input Per-Game Setting (Requires restart of game) part in the Oblivion Properties on Steam, since the newer versions of Steam act very strangely with the controller configuration that you use for your games and sometimes even uses settings made from someone else that I did not download/want to use for whatever game I'm playing.

The controls for Morrowind were originally made for a keyboard/mouse and not a game pad, so that is why they don't run as smoothly as the Xbox 360 Controls do for Skyrim.
Within the past few days, I think I may have found a pretty good controller scheme for Morrowind using an Official Xbox 360 Controller (Wired or Wireless) and an application called, "JoyToKey" but keep in mind that if you want to use a Wireless Controller, you will need to get a Wireless Gaming Receiver, so you can get to use it on a PC.

In order to do this, you need to install JoyToKey.

Or buy Xpadder:

Once you download JoyToKey/buy Xpadder, make a folder called, "JoyToKey" or "Xpadder" and put the files that come with the JoyToKey/Xpadder download into the, "JoyToKey" folder or "Xpadder" folder and put that folder into the install directory where the Morrowind.exe/MorrowindLauncher.exe file(s) is located, or on your desktop. Any place it fine, as long as you remember what you named your folder/where you put it.
Once you do that, go to your Morrowind.ini and make sure these, "Background Keyboard", "Use Joystick" and, "Joystick X Turns" are set to 0, since they will make the game act all funky/weird if they're set to "=1". (The Morrowind.ini file is in the main Morrowind directory, so for me, it would be in Steam/SteamApps/Common/Morrowind, and it's type is called, "Configuration settings" and it's titled, "Morrowind".)
