Morrowind Code Patch

version 2. 4

Morrowind is a game of great depth, a huge world, incredibly extensible and with a thriving community. Unfortunately it's also full of bugs. This is our attempt at defeating the worst bugs in the game, including save corruption; and also adding a few more features people have dreamt of. It patches the original game engine code, so it is for the original program only, not OpenMW.

All fixes and gameplay changes included are optional, you can independently select which ones you want to use in the installer. Gameplay changes are turned off by default.

Compatible with English, West European, Polish, Russian, Steam editions and the Cenega TES Anthology (Polish and English). Compatible with MGE, MWSE, MWE, and FPS Opt 1. 96. Not compatible with OpenMW, the Impulse/Gamefly version of Morrowind (due to DRM), nor FPS Opt 2. 0.

If you have the Steam version, MCP will redate your BSAs automatically when the patch is applied. This allows replacer mods to work correctly without the work of redating manually.

See the readme for install and upgrade instructions.

MCP requires Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86). Most people have it already, but if you get an MSCVR100.dll error, you need to install this.

I also recommend using Better Dialogue Font for more readable text at higher resolutions.

Current version features:

gold items are new in 2. 3

orange items are new in 2. 4

--------------------

- Savegame corruption fix. Fixes the mod matching system, to avoid many sources of game corruption. You can now change your load order without problems. Adding mods to your savegame will now cause much less issues. It also makes saving much cleaner, minimizing things like missing NPCs and objects (the local ref bug).

- Delayed spell crash fix. Fixes a crash situation where uncast spells remained in memory or savegame.

- Summoned creature crash fix. Prevents crashes from spell effects bound to creatures that have been unsummoned. Updated to correct a problem with the fix which crashed when a summon killed its own summoner with a spell.

- Initializing data fix. Fixes errors in Morrowind's script parser that caused occasional hanging (or more rarely errors) during the "Initializing Data" phase, when loading savegames. It should also speed up this phase of loading.

- Animated container crash fix. Fixes crashes from accessing animated containers. Should work both with players and merchants accessing containers.

- Resolution options fix. Allows the setting of all available resolutions
