Title: OpenMW modding

I got Morrowind when it was free from Bethesda. I installed OpenMW and got the game up and running. When I was looking at an article online it recommended using the Morrowind enhanced textures mod https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/46221?tab=files. I am trying to find a guide on applying the mod, but have not had luck finding anything. Any help on getting it installed would be greatly appreciated.

As far as I can tell there are not instructions included with the MOD. I don't see the enhanced texture pack listed on the site you linked. I am guessing it is not supported then?

If it's just a texture replacer with a simple Data Files/Textures structure, you should just be able to merge the contents with your Data Files folder. Check any ESP/ESM files under your launcher and you should be good.

However, if it depends on MWGE or MWSE, then it is NOT compatible with OpemMW. (If you see any .dll or .exe files in the pack, it's a good indication that OpenMW won't support it.)
