    Oh! looks nice! have you change your pc? these last times, your images look more and more nicely detailed.
    I'm waiting to see all your screenies of it before to dl it. Is it here in Nexus?
    and can you tell me the name of the nif and dds files for the nice Discovery's spirale plant on foreground?

      Denny, you can find Discovery1's spiral fern in Verdant Anthesis, Ecology for a mad god, path "textures\plants\mania\mgrass03.dds" ( nif similar ). There is a desaturated version in Vanilla Flavour.

    Thank you very much, everybody

    This is an amazing experience. All memories come back, but fortunately enough time has passed since I played Morrowind, so I can remember only a little, and the game is exciting again.

    I decided to suspend my Oblivion experience (including exploration of Rathunas, Ubanga and Black Marsh) because average 5 FPS is well below any acceptable gameplay, but I won't give up any part of my setup - I'd rather wait for the day I finally get that new computer (which keeps being delayed, too). So no, Denny, it's not a new machine - it's mostly Cinematic ENB (an early version, which to me personally feels nicer than the more recent ones), and it comes at a high price in FPS. I was surprised to discover that Morrowing is not much "lighter" - I'm still below 10 FPS
    (Don't get me wrong Cinematic is - or at least was - wonderfully light. Even without it I've got about 10 FPS average. Mostly due to the abundance of script-heavy mods, and crappiness of my processor + 512MB graphics.)

    The current version of Morroblivion is complete - the main plot plus DLCs are fully covered now, and the mod is surprisingly easy to install, especially if you use Wrye Bash - really a piece of cake, a breeze, and definitely worth trying.

    I guess this time round the spiral ferns are not Discovery's - I reckon they were included as part of Morroblivion (and I'm getting ready to replace some stuff with already tried and tested favourites - such as plants from TIE).

    Hey, Tesa, watch out for slaughterfish! No, just kidding, these waters are safe - even too safe for my taste. Don't worry - the beach is all yours, I'm not leaving water.

    Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I may be too timid to install it, so I love having the opportunity to see it. Perhaps I will become inspired enough to try it later. ;-)

    Excellent shot Mac. I had wanted to give MO a try but heard it was heavy, and incomplete.
    I had also wanted to give This a go but same thing it is incomplete, needs the original, and I'm not crazy about the COBL requirement.

    Anyway, enjoy your new adventure!

      Incomplete? I don't know about that. I have completed a typical play-through (some guild, telvanni, tribunal temple, imperial temple, main quest) in an older version. Worked well, but broke at some point in the Tribunal add-on. Now we are two years later -- Hey, maczopikczo, out of my way, I am exercising my athletics skills along the beach there!!!

    Woah, looks great!

    YAY! Off to new horizons! I'm looking forward to see more from your newest journey!
    (What about your goal to reach Rathunas? )
