Hey guys, newcomer here, been following OpenMW for some time and switched to it at 0.36, and I've noticed a few small oddities.
First, corpses don't disappear. I don't know by how much this causes save file bloat, but my largest one is a whopping 28 MB.
Took me some time to realize corpses don't disappear on their own, and then I realized saving was slowing down to a snail's pace because the files were getting as inflated as Almalexia's ego. Now, I disable or dispose off any corpse I see.
For a comparison, a not-so-vanilla Morrowind save is about 5MB.
Hold on. That's only a relatively small difference. Does OpenMW have difficulties saving?
Vanilla Morrowind never had a hard time overwriting a few megs, why does it take OpenMW a solid 20 seconds? Is this a known issue? Or is it just my installation?
I also have trouble getting some things to work, like the levers in Sotha Sil. They only activate what they're supposed to half of the time.
I run a Steam version of the game, by the way.
