Errors and Warnings : III

» Sat May 17, 2014 6:55 pm

Howdy folks, I've come back to Morrowind after the longest time, and begun slowly modding it - mostly just textures at this point - and I've come upon some errors and whatnot that I'm hoping you folks might be able to help me straighten out. The game runs without problem, but I get a few of these errors when I start up, and again when I load.

Here's my Warnings.txt:

Spoiler

One of the files that "Better Robes.ESP" is dependent on has changed since the last save.
This may result in errors. Saving again will clear this message but not necessarily fix any errors.
One or more plugins could not find the correct versions of the master files they depend on. Errors may occur during load or game play. Check the "Warnings.txt" file for more information.

Mods I've installed:

4gb patch

Animation Compilation

Better Dialogue Font

Epic Balmora

MGE XE

MCP

Better Bodies

And my load list is as such:

GameFile0=Better Heads Bloodmoon addon.esm
GameFile1=Better Heads Tribunal addon.esm
GameFile2=Better Heads.esm
GameFile3=Bloodmoon.esm
GameFile4=Morrowind.esm
GameFile5=Tribunal.esm
GameFile6=aru_signs_en.esp
GameFile7=Better Bodies.esp
GameFile8=Better Clothes_v1.1.esp
GameFile9=BIG_BALMORA.ESP
GameFile10=BlightedAnimalsRetextured.esp
GameFile11=BoundWeaponReplacer.ESP
GameFile12=SN_Gold_v.1.1.esp
GameFile13=UFR_v3dot2.esp
GameFile14=Better Robes.ESP

And a screencap of all the texture and meshes I've added in: http://i.imgur.com/jBSbjoA.jpg

Now, I'm pretty sure the bit up there about Better Robes, the first four lines or so, has something to do with how I installed Better Clothes, Unique Finery Replacer, and Better Robes. I'm pretty sure all the "Not able to find Foot part" is too.

All the NiAnimation error/Unable to LayerActivate errors started after I added Animation Compilation in.

The bits at the end are a little odd, I assume land_default.tga is from MGE XE.

I have absolutely no clue how to use Wrye Bash or any of those other tools, or what I should be using, but I'd be very happy if anyone could give me some advice.

I'll take a stab in part about the tools to help.

mlox is a utility (it has it's own thread with links where to download it) that anolyzes the mods you've selected with what modders have reported to give you a suggested load order for those mods. It relies upon users reporting problems and what the modders themselves say about known problems and how the player/modder worked around the problem. If the proposed load order is acceptable to you, then you click to accept the changes.

I don't know about Wrye Bash. IIRC, that was designed for Oblivion or Skyrim. Wrye made a utility for Morrowind called Wrye Mash. There are three variants - Wrye Mash, Yacoby and Melchior Dark. Like mlox, there is a thread dedicated to them that can give much more detail. I personally use the original Wrye Mash 1.84, but that's due to inertia on my part - the utility works for me, I'm familiar with it and it does what I want - no reason to change horses in midstream. Others will argue for the newer versions. WM 1.84 has more steps to get up and running than the other two.

As a minimum, I'd suggest getting mlox and using it. If your load list is the same sequence as how the esm and esp files are loaded for your game, the mw, tribunal and bloodmoon esms should be the first loaded. Some of the items in your warnings txt are common and no need for concern.

Sorry can't be of more help.

I did mean Wrye Mash - I have paid that much attention - and oddly enough, I never played modded Oblivion. I will definitely look into these threads, though, I know load order is horrifically important oftentimes.

Thanks for your help! Is there any other general advice you might have? As far as these errors go, I suppose I'm just going to pore over the documentation and try and sort this out.

You need to uninstall and reinstall the Better Robes and the Animation Compilation mods, because the Warnings.txt tells you exactly what you should do to fix your game.

All these errors are harmless but annoying. The last two is normal and can be ignored since they exist in plain vanilla.

No MGE-XE has nothing to do with the land_default.tga since it's part of the game it self.

What you need to do here is to install Yacoby's http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1449775-wrye-mash-thread-6/, http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1487854-relz-mlox-anolyze-and-sort-your-load-order/, http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1422837-relz-tes3cmd-a-tool-for-editing-tes3-plugins-and-much-more/ in that order, because Yacoby's WMSA (Wrye Mash Stand Alone) is the latest and it also an integrated GUI for both mlox, tes3cmd (requires to installed).

extract the https://github.com/Yacoby/Wrye-Mash/downloads archive into the Morrowind folder then right click on the mash.exe and send it as a shortcut to desktop
just do the same thing for http://download.fliggerty.com/download-58-999 as you did for Wrye Mash except for right clicking on the mlox.exe
extract the mlox rules archive in the Morrowind\mlox folder (look for the additional files)
extract the http://code.google.com/p/mlox/wiki/Tes3cmd archive into the Morrowind\Data Files and you're done

After you have install these tools then you need to sort your loadorder with mlox and afterwards clean any dirty mods with tes3cmd.

Remember some mods seems to be dirty, but they're already clean and must be untouched otherwise they'll stop working. Just read the instructions in the readme.

The Animation Compilation problem turned out to be a conflict with Morrowind Code Patch's "support improved animations" option. All I had to do was turn that off and repatch, problem solved. I haven't buggered with Better Robes again yet, though I'm sure I won't have any problems.

I've downloaded and properly installed each of those, thank you very much! You folks are as cool as I remember.
