Pure Exploration

2025

I never got around to publishing this until my now 8 year old daughter started playing Morrowind with me and said she found it a bit scary and could I make a mod to make it less scary. "Way ahead of you" I said. Here is what I made for her when she was 3.

2020 Original Description:

It was only a matter of time until my three year old insisted on giving Morrowind a go. First time we played was rather limiting, we had to stay in town the whole time and we ran out of money after renting a bed and buying some food and a book. I wanted to go picking mushrooms with her but I didn't want to risk running into anything that could give her nightmares. So she went off to find some IRL money (so we could buy some more in-game books), and I took to the Construction Set. This is what I came up with, inspired by my little daughter:

Creatures and NPCs Made Passive

- Removed Gaenor (The aggro Bosmer in Mournhold)

- Set iFightAlarmMult, iFightAttack, iFightAttacking, iFightDistanceBase, iFightKilling, iFightPickpocket and iFightTrespass to 0

- Lowered the fight value to 90 for creatures that previously had a fight level of 100

No Drowning

All races now come with permanent water breathing.

NPCs Shoudn't Attack You for Stealing

Set fAlarmRadius, fCrimeStealing, fDispPickPocketMod, fDispStealing, iAlarmPickPocket, iCrimeStealing, iCrimeTrespass to 0

If your little one accidentally picks something up that isn't theirs, NPCs will no longer try to kill the player character.

In this version (1. 0) NPCs will not react at all. I would ideally like to make it so they still run their thief audio lines but I do not yet know how to do this. Any help much appreciated.

Scary Things Removed

- Large Slaughterfish

- Corprus Stalkers

- Bonewalkers

- Bonewolves

- Fleshy Corpses

- Ash Zombies

- Dark Brotherhood Assassins

- Vampires and Cattle

- Tarhiel (The Wizard who falls screaming to his death)

More Polite NPCs

All races now start with x2 personality so NPCs will greet you more politely.

Removed References to Rape
