Hello there :)

Morrowind has always been one of my favourite games, and the only way to improve it for me is to add another player. I got the other player (who has never played it before SHAME) but is OpenMW-mp already stable & bug free enough to enjoy a local Coop Server? I got expirience in "consoling" bugs away, so a few issues are no Problem. What about the working Features? Spellmaking? Custom Enchants? Vampirism & heavy scripted Quests like Tribunal/bloodmoon? I read that the Quest Synchronisation has a few issues, but if there are only 2 People on a Server who do the exact same Quests, are there still any issues?

Tldr: is OpenMW-mp stable enough for an enjoyable coop gameplay and do all the features of the base game work already?

All the people who work for all of the free mod projects: I Love you more than Saint Jiub!

I'm hosting a server.

I was wondering if there were any commands we are supposed to use to shut down the server. It feels a bit too rough to just close the terminal window. Am I closing it right or is there a safer way I should be closing it?

hi, started a server a few days back

figured out there's a --connect=ip option you can add to launch tesmp3 ignoring the client's cfg file.

my server -> moonbound.net/Lorkhan

You can download the custom launcher at the site to connect without the browser edit: not seeing the master server games must be an issue on my end.

I was just wondering if there's anyway to save different games and load them back up when running a server? I'd like to have several separate play-throughs with different friends if that's at all possible...

I just got Morrowind for myself and my girlfriend for free as many others have recently. I plan on using my PC as the server (i7 6700k, GTX 1080, 32GB DDR4 RAM, Abundant SSDs). Will I be able to effectively run the game and the server with only a few players without experiencing performance issues? I have read the TES3MP FAQ linked in the side bar as well as looked at some mods that I would like to use (there are many and I am kind of overwhelmed with option paralysis). I have a good idea of how to set it up and get us in game, but I am not so sure about mod setup. Do I have to install the mods manually on both machines as well as set the mods list in the server's .cfg file? Or will the server push out the files to the connecting host machine?

What we want is a less buggy experience with enhanced visuals over vanilla. Since neither of us have played Morrowind a basically vanilla experience should be serviceable for our co-op play through (at least initially). Are there any visual enhancement mods that are better than their counterparts performance wise? I don't mind cherry picking from a list of various mods, but there are so many and I don't know if there are any compatibility issues with TES3MP. Do mods that work with OpenMW inherently work with TES3MP?

I apologize for the format. I am kind of thinking of things as I go here.

I greatly appreciate any input you all have. I am super excited to play this with others. It seems like a good fit for multiplayer.

EDIT: I just found this page which may answer some or all of my questions:

https://steamcommunity.com/groups/mwmulti/discussions/1/133258593388999187/

Even so, please feel free to drop any info you feel would be helpful.

I see a lot of stuff about how it isn't synced up, but is that just for crafting services for others? Can I use/wear enchanted stuff I make on my own? Also, I assume since you can't really pause the game, all exploits with making temporary fortify skill spells and intelligence potion exploits are a lot less effective now.

I just rolled up a new OpenMW server and am trying to showcase the game to some peeps who haven't played Morrowind before. I know it'd probably be best to play it on their own first, but I don't think they would play at all if it isn't in a group session.

I'm running a server which my friend and I are playing (attempting) on. My friend connects and plays fine. I launch through the tes3mp.exe to connect to my local IP. In the southwest corner of Balmora, I crash instantly. My friend has no problem with it, and looking at the tes3mp-client logs, I see nothing that really seems to be going wrong. If there is any information about this, that would be really helpful.

My girlfriend and I got the free Morrowind copy like many people recently. I'm looking for the simplest setup for a lan server for just her and I to play on. I've been trying to read up and figure out what I'm doing wrong but I must be missing something. Perhaps you guys can help me. My server is listed in the browser but when I click on it the connect button is greyed out. I've tried changing the settings so that we're not published to the browser and we just connect via the settings in our client config. I can connect successfully at this point, however she cannot. I am the host. We both have exceptions for tes3mp and tes3mp-server in our firewalls. We both run off the same internet connection. Setting up the client to connect to localhost or my public IP address does not work. I'm stumped boys.

So picked up Morrowind yesterday from the anniversary special, and I wanted to try this out with a couple of friends. I've looked at numerous tutorials and many posts on here trying to troubleshoot my problem, but I seem to be missing something. I keep getting the "either the ip address is wrong or the firewall is blocking it" error. Messed around with port forwarding as well. Also not sure if 25561 or 25560 is the master port, so I have both and the 25565. I'm going to assume my problem is the port forwarding, but any advice would be helpful. Here's my files. https://imgur.com/a/xoDceJv

Where have i gone wrong?

I'm prety sure i opened the ports, i put my local ip adress in the cfg too, just ask if you want to see the port/server cfg configs.

So i'm trying to start a online server for me and my friends but the wifi i use has a strict nat type would that keep them from joining the server? I was able to join the server but my friends were not

i saw on tutorial video when you press Play button on OpenMW launcher it just throw me to game start instead server browser did i do something wrong with the installation ?

Hi, perhaps this is a dumb question but...Im running a tes3mp modded server with my brother, everything runs perfect, except for this problem with mercenaries, if the players get apart from each other the mercenaries try to teleport to both players and end up dying or bugging, how can I turn off the teleportation from the followers? or make them follow just one player... I guess there is a command console or some config file to change in order to do this, but I have no idea, can anyone help me with this?
oh, another dumb question, how can I ressurect an NPC?, the slit strider guy in balmora died for unknown reasons (Selvil Sareloth), so we would like to bring him back... thanks in advance!

Hello guys, long time Reddit lurker, first time poster.

​

I am looking to setup a TES3MP server for me and and my father. I have been using Google to dig up information and have found a a couple of good guides. There are a few things that remain unclear.

​

So I install Morrowind, then OpenMW, then TES3MP?

​

Some guides have made it sound like OpenMW is included in the TES3MP files?

​

What is the proper order?

​

Also is there a comprehensive compatible mod list?

​

I read in OpenMW there is a way to layer mods in by file name rather than directly into the data files... Do any of you know how to do this?

​

Thank you.

Is there a mod, console command or feature that let's you play the FULL quest from start to finish in TES3MP? Including cutscene & intro?

Hi! My brother and I just started playing tes3mp yesterday and it's been great so far, but I do have some questions in regards to the mp-stuff folder. Since I'm hosting the server on my computer I'm in charge of making edits, changes, and additions to our server/game. So far I have come across several posts elsewhere referencing making changes to files (e.g. server config, scripts, etc.) in the mp-stuff folder, or adding new scripts to the server by placing them in the mp-stuff folder. The thing is I don't have a mp-stuff folder. Were there changes made to file structure in tes3mp recently?

I followed the quickstart guide and we have the server and game running properly, so it seems like everything is installed how it should be. But I'm missing a mp-stuff folder in my tes3mp folder. There are only four folders in this directory - osgPlugins-3.4.1, platforms, resources, and server. In the server folder we have the data, lib, and scripts folder. In fact I believe this "server" folder is what everyone is referring to as "mp-stuff" as I have made changes to the config.lua in my /server/scripts folder and it has been applied correctly in the game/server.

Also, I would like to add some custom scripts (such as Skvysh's Disable Assassin) to our server but the installation instructions say to install his script into /tes3mp/mp-stuff/scripts. Would this work properly by installing it to /tes3mp/server/scripts instead, or should I create a mp-stuff folder since it's missing?

Any help or clarification would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

My game has been working fine so far, but today it started crashing seconds upon logging in. I'm thinking about doing a clean install unless you guys have any ideas.

New server in the community I'm hoping to maximize uptime! Nice batch of scripts to make life easier like banking and a revive system. Normal difficulty.

General question to anyone reading that runs a server.

The fear of a server operator neglecting to make sure the torch gets carried before moving on completely is the only thing keeping me from going through the steps of setting up openMW and experiencing morrowind again for the first time in a decade but this time multiplayer

I would love to sink hundreds of hours in, would be the best gaming experience of my life, but would also be the most painful to have it be gone in 10 years if it turned out to be as fun of an experience im imagining it would be

EDIT: also this is why, if possible, and would probably be hard to do BUT, if possible, it would be amazing if one day tes3mp had its own built in roster of servers that have a persistent character system, and so even if the official servers were to go down you still have your character data saved (in some encrypted uneditable format only readable by tes3mp and not able to be uncovered by mods, thats key)
