If you get beyond a certain number of saves (which may be dependent on the total number of active mods), then Morrowind starts to give fatal load errors. Symptom: Keeping more than N saves in the Saves directory causes fatal load errors. However, most times when Morrowind is about to crash the game will freeze and save a 'Restore' file that you can then load from the load menu. This is caused by a bug in the data sorting algorithms of the engine the buffers simply overflow and empty, the engine tries to access data that is gone, and halts.įix: There seems to be no way to avoid this, except saving regularly. Sometimes, Morrowind simply crashes when you haven't saved your current game for a while. Symptom: The player just wanders about and suddenly, Morrowind crashes without any reason. The following bugs occur in relation to savegames. You could have to do it each time you reboot your system since it is a default driver. That should make your tilde key work again. If you're running Morrowind on Vista or later, try uninstalling Microsoft eHome Infrared Transceiver, if you find it listed in the Human Interface Devices tab in the Device Manager menu of the System and Maintenance option of the Control Panel. Reboot is required for the changes to take effect. You might need to uncheck 'Show compatible hardware' when looking for that driver. One way to fix this is to manually change the driver for that device to PC/AT Enhanced PS/2 Keyboard (101/102-Key).On some computers, tilde ( ~), left bracket ( and a non-game application, DosBox. E.g., the Game of the Year (GOTY) PC version of Morrowind incorporates many bug-fixes out of the box, as well as the final release versions of Morrowind, its expansions, and the TESCS.

Not all of the errors/bugs stated here necessarily occur in the release you own. This page contains information on the engine bugs present in Morrowind in the original Bethesda game engine (these do not affect OpenMW, and some of them have been fixed for Bethesda's engine by code-patching projects, as noted below).
