📋 About This Mod

Enjoy modding :)

This is a short tutorial to show you how to fix the plugin error when you launch Morrowind. The pop up reads:

Go your install directory and open “Warnings.txt”. You will see something similar to

The problem is that the mod creator created the mod with a different version of Morrowind. What we need to do is update the Master list to match the mod with the master file(s).

To do this:

1.  Download and install Wrye Mash here

2.  Navigate to the “Mopy” directory

3.  Open “mash.exe” (Wrye Mash)

4.  Select one of the mods in yellow.

5.  In the right pane, click any of the Master files.

6.  Now you see he “Update Masters” popup. Click“OK”.

7.  Click “Save”

8.  The mod and Master files are now green showing they are fixed. In this case I fixed the mod “Better     Robes.esp”.

Follow the steps to fix each mod then open Morrowind. All should be fine now. :)
