📋 About This Mod
So I know what you're thinking - "Oh god, not another loathsome loading screen mod! The agony!". Well quite frankly I have to agree with you, but I'll be damned if I don't upload my own mass of flat images here for other people who are bored of the default flat images. I figured that since most players spend about 75% of their time looking at load screens in Bethesda games, it would be a great place to put my meager GIMP skills to use.
Anyhow, there are just under (literally JUST under, by that I mean 79) 80 different loading backgrounds, all with lore-friendly and thoroughly researched - by that, I mean a quick look at UESP every now and then - subtitles to help you learn even more utterly useless information. Some even use spoiler-free quotes for a bit of divine inspiration (to me, that sounded a lot funnier because it's like Divine Intervention but not...nevermind.)!
Ah, something I forgot to mention when I uploaded this a year ago which now nobody will ever read, but this was meant to be used alongside the wunderbar Morrowind UI Revamped mod by jeclxohko, specifically the Morrowind-style version. It can be used with the Skyrim version, of course, but the lovely urine yellows and putrid shineless gold tints of these loading screens will contrast greatly with the 1000-year-old white marble shades of the Skyrim UI.

NOW UPDATED TO 1. 0. 1! - Download the "Rat Description Typo Fix" and witness the glory of spelling correction at its finest! June 1st, 2016: Hooray! This TGA-filled clusterfark made the front page. Thanks to everyone who downloaded and then swiftly thereafter deleted this mod! July 31st, 2017: Came back to see how this mod was doing and saw that it was the 2nd "top mod" (whatever specific statistic that represents) under the UI section. I'd like to thank everyone who both downloaded AND endorsed this mod, and wish imminent destruction upon those who did not endorse.
Installation is simple, and if you somehow botch it, I think you might want to retire from this newfangled computer business. But just in case, I included a ReadMe, and if you SOMEHOW fail to ReadHim, then here's the proper instructions:
Step 1. Equip your Gloves of Arthritis Resistance Step 2. Download the file Step 3. Open the file using some ZIP program - if you don't know what a ZIP program is, give up now Step 4. Extract the files somewhere, preferably not your Skyrim-porn folder since this mod is for Morrowind Step 5. Copy the "Data Files" folder to your Morrowind directory, and override anything because it clearly isn't as amazing as what is contained in this mod Step 6. Start Morrowind Step 7. Go get a drink and watch the game while you wait for it to load Step 8. Return to the game only to
Morrowloading adds nearly 80 new lore-friendly loading screens in a style reminiscent of Oblivion. It's a cosmetic UI overhaul for Morrowind players who want a fresh look without straying from the game's lore.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Nearly 80 new screens is a solid amount of variety for a loading screen mod
- Lore-friendly approach keeps the game's atmosphere intact

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple texture/mesh replacement, just drop the files into your Data Files folder and make sure it's activated in the Morrowind Launcher.
- If you use a mod manager like Wrye Mash or Mod Organizer 2, install it through that to keep your load order clean.
- Check for conflicts with other UI mods that might replace loading screens — load order matters if you have multiple.
