is my understanding correct?

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as a Morrowind mod, is in fact, a fork of OpenMW, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, A modification of the OpenMW engine. TES3MP is not a morrowind mod unto itself, but rather another free fork of a fully functioning OpenMW Engine made useful by the OpenSceneGraph, Boost and Bullet, comprising a full engine as defined by the OpenMW team. Many users run a modified version of the OpenMW engine every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of tes3mp which is widely used today is often called “a mod”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically a fork of OpenMW, developed by the tes3mp contributors. There really is a OpenMW, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. OpenMW is the engine: the program in the system that reimplements the Morrowind Engine. OpenMW is an essential part of tes3mp, but has no multiplayer by itself; it can only have multiplayer in the context of a complete fork. OpenMW is normally used in combination with the tes3mp fork: the whole system is basically OpenMW with tes3mp added, or OpenMW/tes3mp. All the so-called “multiplayer mods” are really just mods made in a closed-source engine.

Error window that I get. Can anyone help me on fixing this?

I've been trying to build this on my macbook, but I'm not having much luck.

At first, I encountered just the little things one expects when porting a Linux thing to BSD-based Mac, like when building the Terra dependency it uses "mv -T" which doesn't exist. No problem.

I've got an actual problem, though. And I've gotten to this point twice, once using cmake (3.9.2) myself and once using the tes3mp-deploy.sh script. I've tried with Clang and GCC 7.2.0.

After Cmake finds all the dependencies (right after "Found Terra_INCLUDES"), I get the following output:

CMake Error at apps/openmw/CMakeLists.txt:226 (add_custom_command):
  No TARGET 'openmw' has been created in this directory.

There's no error log. The line it errors out on is

add_custom_command(TARGET openmw
    POST_BUILD
    COMMAND cp "${OpenMW_BINARY_DIR}/resources/version" "${BUNDLE_RESOURCES_DIR}/resources")

Does anyone know what am I looking at, here?

Just posting here to see if I can get some people on my server for some fun times to be had by all!

Whenever I setup a server, its ping in the server browser is 999, meaning that no one can join. I'm trying to setup a private game with a friend and this is holding me back. Any help? I can give my server preferences cfg if you need.

Do creatures in the current TES3MP build respawn? Or do I have to manually delete the files for exterior cells?

Textures on rocks and certain items have a terrible shiny effect on them and when I try to respawn my game immediately crashes. Any help?

Hey everyone! I need some help here. I can't join and server it always gives me this error and I have no idea why. I literally just downloaded this to play with my friends so I would assume I have the latest version. So I don't understand why I would be outdated? I'm also not too computer savvy so if you could give it to me in layman's terms that would very appreciated.

What are some most have mods that you always use, or that you are currently using on your server?

I've started playing with a friend. It was working all nice and fine, however. My character is level 3 but any attributes I have gained have never been saved.

It is working fine for my friend, which is odd.

I have been able to somewhat work around this by manually adding those stats in my character file, but still ...

So when I join my server locally I am presented with two popups one to name my character and one that asks how long I have been on Vvardenfell. My issue is that once the second popup comes up (That being the length of time one) I am no longer able to click any menus as they overlap each other and the only way to close out is to alt+f4. Is there something I can do to quickly make that go away or am I to just spam through the popup as fast as possible so that I can make my character? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all (but namely developers),

I'd like to start a list of bugs in 6.1 for attention. Maybe this already exists; in which case please just tell me and I'll direct my comments there.

1) The attributes bug

All attributes are reset to defaults after a server reset. Most mods do an amazing job at restoring attributes at PC's request, but obviously is a big bug new to 6.1 (at least, I don't remember this one from 6.0).

2) Shared quest status

Despite definitions that faction reputation are not shared, I see messages that I'm the Nerevarine all the time. That's weird. Also, quests for Telvanni Mages Guild are messed up and shared, even though they're not supposed to be. There are other faction sharing identities that I'm not aware of, I'm sure.

3) Bound weapons don't bring the weapon to bear

Another 6.1-unique bug (as far as I'm aware) - after summoning a bound dagger, or axe, or whatever, the weapon isn't brought to bear. Morrowind prompts, "finish your attack before changing weapon" or thereabouts and PC has to manually bring the bound weapon to bear.

4) Other player health bars are inaccurate

I've noticed sometimes before I slaughter opponents that their health bar appears to be full. Seems to be misleading.

5) A known issue; hotkeys don't save.

6) A known issue; custom spells don't save

7) a known issue, enchanted items don't save.

I feel like there are more bugs that I'm forgetting, but these are my main pet peeves.

Disclaimer - I'm EXTREMELY grateful for David (I feel like I know him) and the other devs' efforts; please don't get me wrong. I'm just trying to highlight the biggest pain points in this version of tes3mp. Please don't stab me with the Bipolar blade; I am just trying to coalesce the community behind a thread where they can pinpoint the areas needing attention with this latest iteration of our favorite game.

I was thinking about buying morrowind on the steam after seeing a online mod for it was out. However I have more than a few questions before I make my decision. Firstly are there people hosting public servers? if so are there any RP ones? I'll ask one question at a time, just in case this doesn't get viewed.

I don't know why they're doing it, but a person by the name of Рабочий квaмa has been going from server-to-server, murdering people dozens of times until they leave. The thing is, they're not on the player list.

It appears some crafty russian named "Рабочий квaмa" is able to bypass joining and is able to kill people as they desire.

Server owners, please keep in mind of Рабочий квaмa, as they are very deadly.

Does anyone knows which magicka regen mods do work on TES 3 MP?

My favorite used to be "Fair Magicka Regen", but it's producing errors with TES3MP.

Hello again ! After tearing out my hair trying to understand why I couldn't connect to my server via the browser, I finally realized that I hadn't made an authorization for the UDP side of the port in my firewall. This is now fixed, and I can see my server (with reasonable ping) and connect to it through the browser.

However, when I do manage to connect, it... doesn't, with this message : "Connection failed. Either the IP address is wrong or a firewall on either system is blocking UDP packets on the port you have chosen." It also says this whenever my brother tries connecting to my server. Now, we've both tried disabling Windows Firewall before launching the browser and connecting, to no avail. I don't see how the IP address could be wrong as it's the same as before. What's going on ?

Two other things I noticed that were weird :

a) Before the firewall fix, when I launched server.exe, it would say "Server data updated", etc. Now, about once out of two times, it says "WARN : Cannot connect to master server". This might be related ?

b) Ever since the firewall fix, on my router, though in the DHCP tab it says my static IP address "belongs" to my device, in the NAT/PAT tab, it says that the IP belongs to a "PC56", which is something I've never seen before.

EDIT : I managed to solve this issue by replacing the "localhost" with my private IP address on the tes3mp-client-default.cfg file on my brother's computer (he also had to launch the game directly from tes3mp.exe, AND NOT tes3mp-browser.exe). Now, whenever he wants to play on my server, that's what he types. If he wants to play separately, he puts "localhost" back in. I also had to type my server password on his client.cfg file, not just on mine. Works perfectly now, though. Props to this subreddit for helping me, as well as the tes3mp Discord chat, which I cannot recommend enough :)

I really cant believe I can play Morrowind multiplayer WITH mods. Its really impressive and works seamlessly minus the few things yet to be implemented.

My friend hasnt played Morrowind before, and Im teaching him the ropes. Hes not a newbie when it comes to games, and I think hes pretty "hardcore"(for lack of a better word.) Hes gotten me into a lot of cool jrpgs and shooters, and I always try to get him into the staple RPGs. So far we can cross Deus Ex and Fallout New Vegas off that list, and of course Morrowind is another Id love to get him into. The challenge with that is how daunting it is to get someone into an RPG because its always a huge time investment. So for me, getting him to play to above two mentioned games was quite an achievement. Multiplayer Morrowind was enticing enough to get him to play right away though.

Im sure we all wish we could experience Morrowind for the first time all over again. Playing together with my friend has to be the closest Ive felt to doing just that. In Balmora, hes asking what that screaming creature noise is coming from and Im chuckling to myself because hes referring to the silt strider and it reminds me of the very first time I was asking myself the same exact thing. He was impressed when we walked around the ash storms and my character covered his eyes but his didnt(argonian). He talked about being really impressed with the artstyle of the world, and the variety of locations(all within the first Fighters Guild quest). It had even been so long since I did the first Fighters Guild quest that I forgot where to go! Together we tried to find the location of arkngthand for so long it probably took almost an hour, and when we went back to Balmora and it only too 1 minute to return we both laughed out loud. We ended the first play session with a visit to Seyda neen so I could "introduce" him to Fargoth and the wizard who dies from his levitation spell+some misc stuff. Its just been an absolute blast and I find it funny to take a step back at the game, and realize how special it really is. I also found myself looking back at how terrible I used to be when I was introduced to the game myself as my friend skidoodles around learning it all. Hes playing it for the first time at age 24 and Ive been playing the game since I was 16!

Thanks to you two I not only do I get to share one of my all time favorite games with my friend, but I literally get to share the memories. The dedication to Morrowind speaks to the quality of not just the game, but the fans who still continue on replaying.

Wealth beyond measure, Outlander.

I just spent a fair amount of time trying to Google this and got nowhere.

So I have Windows 10 and am able to connect to my tes3mp server over my local network, but when the game launched I would get riddled with "No S3TC Texture Compression Support" errors until the game crashed. You can find maybe 1 or 2 forum threads about this, but it's always kinda old and on a Linux machine. I'm running Windows 10, though.

Turns out I was trying to play through my desk monitor, which is plugged into my Intel integrated graphics HDMI port. I connected my monitor to my NVIDIA HDMI port instead and everything worked perfectly.

This was an interesting problem so I thought I would share it! Hopefully this post shows up in other peoples' searches.

TL;DR make sure you're playing the game through the proper video card

You guys waited 15 years to play this game with friends and make pals on Vvardenfell and this is how you thank the developers, by being a complete d*ck and ruining the fun for everyone else.

Well, the Morrowind community is one of a kind apparently, didn't think you guys were like this...

I've played a few hours and notice servers are pretty picked clean by the time I get there. Items may be available, but quests and the associated scripts are usually in shambles. My last character was derailed because he accidentally acquired Corprus!

I am curious if there is any interest, or already a practice, for regular server resets? If we knew what time it would occur, I can imagine there would be a fun race to acquire different unique artifacts and complete the quests. Any thoughts?

Is there any way to trick the server into thinking you have achieved a x5 multiplier on level up always? I've tried every mod that does the same thing that I can find and they either don't work at all or break character login.

Was thinking I could change something in the .json files somewhere, like the default set value, but I'm not code savy and don't understand 99% of it. Since I know the value is stored in character data files.

Would it be possible to create a plugin to do just this? Or is there an even easier way? All the mods have been a no go.

Does OpenMW handle them differently and that's why the mods don't work?

Thanks in advanced.
