📋 About This Mod
((CyborgJiro: This is not my mod. I made the edit people suggested to make it work in OpenMW. I uploaded this version so I don't have to keep fixing the file if I reinstall Morrowind again. ))
====================
Natural Healing v1. 0
====================
This mod lets you slowly regenerate health, the more you are damaged, the
slower you regenerate health, the less you are damaged the faster you
regenerate..
It has been tested, and is pretty well balanced, it should not become a cheat at any level, or health amount..
======================
Adjusting Regeneration
======================
I have made the regeration adjustable, so if you find the default value
to be too slow, or too fast you can change it to suit your needs..
This is accomplished via a global variable..
In the console type Set BP_NH_Rate to x.xx
The lower the number, the slower you regenerate.
Default Value= 0. 05
So to make it slower try "Set BP_NH_Rate to 0. 025"..
Experiment to find a value that suits your taste.. Just be sure you keep it in float format(ie, 0. 00)..
Enjoy the mod.

Natural Healing for Morrowind (OpenMW) adds a dynamic health regeneration system where regen speed inversely scales with damage taken. It's a small, focused gameplay tweak with 44 endorsements, last updated in November 2022, and is specifically fixed for OpenMW compatibility.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Tiny mod with a dedicated following (44 endorsements) — it does one thing and does it well.
- Dynamic regen speed adds a risk-reward layer: stay healthy to heal fast, but get battered and you'll recover slowly.
- OpenMW fix means it's ready for modern Morrowind players using that engine.
⚠️ Cons
- Only 44 endorsements — this is a niche pick, not a community staple.
- Last updated in 2022 — might not be tested with the latest OpenMW versions, so expect potential hiccups.
For Morrowind players on OpenMW who want a more forgiving survival experience without full overhaul mods. If you're tired of chugging potions after every fight, this adds a subtle QoL layer. Skip if you prefer hardcore resource management or play on vanilla Morrowind — this is OpenMW-only.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's OpenMW-specific, make sure you're running OpenMW, not the original Morrowind executable — this mod won't work there.
- Drop the mod files into your OpenMW data directory or use the OpenMW launcher's content list to activate it.
- Test the regen speed in a safe area first — you'll notice the scaling quickly, so adjust your playstyle accordingly.
