Morrowind/Bloodmoon Help

[Vince]

I've installed Morrowind, Bloodmoon, and Tribunal on my newer computer. I installed them in the default location, directly from the original CD's. So far I have changed no options and added no mods.

When I try to run Morrowind, it's Ok until I get to the main menu. If I click 'Play', when the game starts to load I get error messages. The first is:

Chunk size 10 too big in WEAT.ID in form REGN_ID. Max size is 8, data truncated to "".

Continue running executable

Yes/No

If I answer Yes, I get another error message about the weather chances in a certain region not adding up to 100%. If I keep on answering Yes, I get more error messages until it crashes. If I uncheck Bloodmoon.esm in the Data List, Morrowind appears to run correctly.

I tried to patch Bloodmoon with the V1.6.1.1820 patch, but get the message "Old File not found. However, a file of the same name was found. No update done since file contents do not match".

Any suggestions would be welcome.

In what order did you install Morrowind with expansion? Was it Morrowind, Tribunal and Bloodmoon or was it Morrowind, Bloodmoon and Tribunal?

Has the CD scratches on the surface? Can you browse the CD in Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer)?

[Vince]

The order was Morrowind, Bloodmoon, Tribunal. The CD's appear scratch free.

Yes, I was able to see and open the files on the Bloodmoon CD from Windows Explorer.

I guess you have answer your self by posting the order of installing the expansion which isn't correct, because you must install Morrowind, Tribunal and Bloodmoon in that order.

Yes Vince...the order in which you load makes a difference. I don`t recall the correct sequence...sorry..you might google it.

OOps...Leo has the answer ...

[Vince]

Leonardo, thanks. I'll uninstall everything and reinstall in the order you listed. Like donnato, I didn't know the order and wasn't able to find it with a quick web search.

You're welcome Vince.

Threads like this could be posted here since it's confusing.

You do not have to uninstall the whole game if you installed the expansion packs in the wrong order: just reinstall Bloodmoon and that error should fix itself.
