The computer these were taken on:
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit)
CPU: AMD Athlon 64X2 4400+
RAM: 4 GB (4x1) 670MHz DDR2
GPU: Geforce 9600GT
Not a monster system, but the GPU is decent.
I get about 15 to 25 frames per second when outside.

INSTALL:

1. Download and install DirectX 9.0c or later.

2. Download and install MGE Beta 178 or later.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/morrgraphext/files/Beta%20Releases/MGE%203.8%...

3. Open MGEgui.exe (make sure Morrowind.ini exists or it will fail. Open the Morrowind Lanucher and change resolution to create the file).
-Render State: check "Hardware Shader".

4. Generate Distant land. Make surethat Minimum Static Size is 150 or less!!! Start morrowind to confirm that it works.

5. Rename 'Data Files\shaders\default' to BACKUP_default.

6. Rename d3d8.dll to BACKUP_d3d8.dll

7. Download MGE XE and extract to 'Morrowind'.

8. Rename 'Data Files\shaders\XEshaders' to 'default'.

9. Open MGEgui.exe and open the Shader editor tool.

10. Edit active chain and add the shaders except for the SSAO ones.
(ColorTemp, GIMP_HDRBloom_v1_3, knx_DoF_v12_pk, sunshaft_v002a, truBloom_g6_i6, zHDR_v2)

11. Open either knx_SSAO_v09_fast or knx_SSAO_v09_hq (located in 'Data Files\shaders\default') in text editor. Uncomment (remove //) the line that says "//#define MGEGUI163_WORKAROUND". Save. Add to active chain. Re-comment the line. Save.

12. Open the macro editor in MGE (under Input) and set a key to Function, Toggle distant Statics. (for testing purposes).

13. Start the game. Make sure that view distance in game is set to maximum. You should have beautiful shadows.
You can try in console 'set timescale to 1000' (default is 30). Makes time go fast!

@CRACKrendellan You know why, it was a better game

[OverusedArgument]

Absolutely beautiful!

[CRACKrendellan]

Emmm i have the shadows now but i notice i have not any sunshaft ;/

[CRACKrendellan]

WTF? It doesn't have any FPS hit!!! :D Why a modded Morrowind have better graphics than a modded Oblivion? i like VERY MUCH this mod!!!

One simple request... that shadows for the buildings can be used for the characters? it would be very good :D

@HostileHST Got it to work, I grabbed the newest MGE and seems ok.

[HostileHST]

@MNICY I got it to work using MGE 3.8.0.0 (from what I know, I grabbed the very latest version and it's working ok so for).

[MNICY]

@HostileHST Does normal MGE work? I'm not sure how this works with newer versions of MGE. The only version I tested (and have installed) is MGE Beta 178... so I can't say if newer versions support this!

[HostileHST]

@TaylorWeza After 4 months I was pretty sure you figured it out or gave up, I personally gave up cause I can't get the MGE to work. Hour glass goes for about 5 seconds, stops and nothing. But back to my comment, it was mainly meant for anyone else running into the issue and yours seemed to be the best to respond to.

[TaylorWeza]

@HostileHST I got it since then, I didnt install the developer kit right. Thanks though!

[HostileHST]

@TaylorWeza Go to microsoft, find dxwebsetup.exe and run it, it should fix any dll errors, but that doesn't mean MGEgui.exe will run. Still figuring that out.
