There's a mod that does the job more thoroughly and has compatibility patches for some things as well: Playable Uncompressed Vanilla and Expansion Textures (https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/52182)
GOG has the uncompressed textures, but the game doesn't load them since they're not in DDS format. You need them converted (which is what this mod provides) so the game can actually 'see' them and load them.
Wow, this is just fantastic. These uncompressed textures will be perfect for 1024 up-scaling techniques. They're admittedly usable as they are as well.
This is absolutely beautiful, thank you very much. Will use this as a fundament before I apply Morroinwd HD textures (your mod covers at least 225 textures more than any of vanilla HD remake that I found) as a baseline. Cheers and Kudos to you, man.
Nice to see that these textures found their way to nexusmods. I think I found them the same way as you: Looking for acceptable head replacer/face texture mods.

Are you sure? It can't be true. GOG version have uncompressed textures by default.
But even if so, I count here 3669 textures, while the Morrowind.bsa has 5187 textures....
