Morrowind Construction Set Tutorials

On my Morrowind Oblivion site I have provided a series of tutorials that help players and modders how to mod the Morrowind game. These tutorials range from those for the complete newbie to more difficult ones for the experienced modders. I plan to provide you with some extracts from these tutorials to whet your appetite, in the hope that it might encourage some of you to give modding a try.

Modding can, at first, seem somewhat daunting. Just getting the right tools and understanding how to setup the Morrowind game to provide the environment seems like it could be quite hard, but with help from the newbie tutorial it should not seem as difficult as expected.

The newbie tutorial begins by explaining how the Morrowind environment is installed onto your computer, then goes on to explain how the hierarchy of the morrowind files is laid out. It then explains how to setup and use the Morrowind Construction Set - the CS as modders like to call it.

The CS allows modders to build fantastic worlds within its confines, to create towns and cities, weapons and armor, scrolls and magic and other role-playing elements using a point and click interface.

When you have finished you only need to exit and save your mod, ensure that it is put into the correct location on disk, then start the game from the loader and specify that your mod is loaded with the game. Then, you will find all the objects and characters in the game, just where you put them.

It really is a fantastic system that provides endless fun and entertainment. And when you are confident that your mod works as expected, then you can release it so that the myriad Morrowind fans all around the globe can play it.
