3ds max 5 quick setup for Morrowind NIF export/import
_________________________________________________________
Morrowind uses .NIF files to store 3dmodels/animations
        With 3ds Max, you can create 3dmodels/animations.
                 3ds Max requires "NIF-exporter" plugins, so you can export your work into .NIF format which Morrowind can use.
                 3ds Max requires "NIF-importer" plugins, so you can import existing NIF files into 3ds max to further edit them.

For Morrowind, 3ds max 5 version is optimal, available here or here
The needed plugins are attached in 'Morrowind NIF plugins' folder. (also available here: https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/51450/ )


View "3ds max 5 morrowind setup.pdf" to set up everything needed, tested working good on windows 10.
Also attached a few '3d modeling tutorials' for 3ds max5

3ds Max 5 is a 20 year old program, but very good to create Morrowind models/animations. if you can use it.
Blender is a good alternate choice if you have problems with 3dsMax.  https://blender-morrowind.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Check Notes for modmakers for more information about NIF exporters, 3ds max and Nifskope use.
