Hi guys, figured I'd introduce myself. I'm Tom, and I love Morrowind. I've probably spent more time on this game than on the toilet. I've got a full-time job doing some IT stuff, but I'll play OpenMW as much as I can and report bugs wherever I find them. One of my duties at work is to debug an iphone app for my employer, as well as several websites, web apps, etc., so I've got some experience in that regard. Not to mention I pretty much learned debugging from Morrowind in the first place, as getting it playable has always been an endeavor.
I'm really happy with the work that you good people have done so far, and frankly kinda proud that this excellent old game is still in development. You're doing a great job, and I intend to help in whatever small way I can.

Welcome Tom and keep those bug reports coming
Re: Hello, I'm Tom - Bug Reporter
Welcome,
I've seen you using 0.29 as a base for many of your bug reports. You should try to use the latest build, so you don't report things that has already been fixed.
If you're on windows, you can find it here:
viewtopic.php?f=20&t=1808
Also keep an eye on what's new, here:
https://github.com/OpenMW/openmw/commits/master
so you can try to find issues with newly added features etc.

Re: Hello, I'm Tom - Bug Reporter
Thanks guys, and Lazaroth, I'll be sure to use more recent builds from now on.
Re: Hello, I'm Tom - Bug Reporter
Hi, and thanks for all the great reports.
I've created a Bug reporting guidelines page. I think it's about finished, and could be linked on the issue tracker, but feel free to ask if there is something unclear about it.
Edit: oh, someone needs to fill in the config/saves locations on windows and mac.
