After a few years being away, I loaded up Morrowind III on my Windows 8.1 computer. I don't have a lot of time to play, but am having fun building up my Dark Elf.

For the life of me, I can't remember how to bring up my current character stats. My right click menu just has 3 screens... all my items like weapons, apparel, magic etc., my powers, spells and attributes and the map.

What am I missing?

In my game, I get the character stats by clicking on the three colored bars in lower left corner.

Caroline.

Thank you, Carolin! Wow, I'm a level 14 Dark Elf already...

Thanks, Carolin

You go, Drac!

Ahhhhh ..... Morrowind ..... Fabulous !!!! I KNOW you will enjoy yourself, Draclvr

As many months and months I've had into the game in other playthroughs, I've never finished it. Thought I'd give it another shot even though I don't have much time to play this time of the year.

I have only ever got to the end once.
And that was on a mammoth session that probably lasted well over a year because I was trying to complete EVERY quest - which I'm quite sure I didn't manage

I've played several times since - huge chunks of it - but never made it all the way through again

I think I was still working when I tried to get all the way through last time. I've been retired for 6 years next month, so maybe this time I will get through it! My goal is to hit and clean out all the tombs and mines. It's a little daunting when I look at the on-line map of them!

Has anyone looked in to the updated graphics mods?

You'd better write down when you've cleaned out a mine or tombthen, since it respaws pretty quickly ... Now that I've written it down though, I immediately get insecure, haha, It's always like that.

I have never even managed to get the map all visible. I have a tendensy to start over Before that's done. Perhaps I don't play for a few months and when I come back I want a new character.
It's not a very good tactic if you ever want to finish a game, but perhaps that's just it?
I don't ever want Morrowind to end? Hmmm, what's up with that?

About the graphics, not sure what you mean? I looked at my favourite Elder Scrolls site, but did't see anything at first glance.

New Graphics Overhaul for Morrowind

Thanks for the link. =)
It's not official and it's might be a bit complicated to install, but it would be very interesting if anyone have tried it of course. It looked nice so maybe that's something to try next ...

I thought the same thing... I'd love to talk to someone who's tried it. I might install the game on my Windows 7 hard drive and give it a go there and see what happens.

The game works great on my Windows 7. Not with the new graphics though, I need to be in the right mood when I want to learn something new.

Same here, RebKean... same here! It's working great on my Windows 8.1 too.

It's really great how some older games seems to work flawlessly on every new computer you get.
I'm thinking about Diablo 2 and Heroes of Might and Magic 3 for instance.
Also great games by the way. =)

I've played both Diablos, but not Might and Magic. I Diablo 2 Lord of Destruction is another one I that start a new game every now and then and play for a few months.

It's great to see people still playing Morrowind. It really is wonderful.

I completed the main quest and rule the Tong and the Thieves, but lost interest in the Great House quests, so I left it at that. I'm almost through Tribunal now.

Unfortunately, I made some stupid choices setting up my character, so I'm having trouble gaining any more levels -- but who cares? I'm level 45 with 100 in Marksman so pretty much nothing can get to me. Got my Boots, my Cuirass, my Levitation amulet, and my Deadric bow. Ahahahahahaahhahaha.

Oh, my goodness! How long has it taken you to get this far?

I guess I'm not stacking since it's been almost 3 weeks! Amazing what a few days of being stuck inside while tropical storm Bill dumps about 6 - 10 inches of rain on us - I'm now a lever 30 elf and working on all my Thief and Mage skills and duties.

I think I'm actually further along that I got the last time I played. I get SO aggravated with the two Mages in Vivec who are blocking the door downstairs and have called them some very unpleasant names! I've been so tempted to kill them!

I finally trapped an Ogrim soul and am now trying to figure out how to use it!

Lol.....I think you found the silver lining

I believe you're right! I've got piles and piles of Daedric and green glass weapons and armor that I can't sell in about 3 different places!

You've gotta find a vendor with more loot....

Ooooooh !! I just LOVE Morrowind's green glass weapons and armour !!

Unfortunately, Mud Crab only has $10,000 and Creeper only had $5,000. I can trick them into having more money, but it still isn't enough for Daedric weapons that are worth $50,000!

Mad, I have accumulated 3 green glass shields, 2 curiasses (sp.??) and more glass weapons than I can count!
