Hey guys,

I've been a big fan of Morrowind since having it on Xbox over a decade ago and have been playing with OpenMW on my MacBook for some time. I have a Ph.D. in Physics where C++ was one of my primary languages for data analysis within a large collaboration. Unfortunately, mostly self-taught (non-computer) scientists are notoriously hacky coders...

Anyway, I have mostly just tweaked OpenMW code for personal use. Recently I made a branch that incorporates the Soulgem Value Rebalance formula from the Morrowind Code Patch as this was the only major economy-breaker that couldn't be resolved with mods. It's a small tweak, for which I've added a checkbox in the Advanced page of the launcher. https://github.com/declan-millar/openmw ... _rebalance

I thought it might be of interest to other people to help balance their playthroughs with OpenMW, but I totally understand if the developers want to avoid bloating the Settings (or my implementation is poor). Still, I'd be happy to make a pull-request if wanted.

Thanks for all your work on OpenMW and keeping Morrowind alive and flourishing.

Cheers,
Declan

I'd say just go with the pull request, its the easiest way for other developers to review your changes and give you feedback.

Sounds like a good idea, I'll just do that.

Welcome! Find our comments on the PR. Looks like we are going to merge it (with a minor modification). Can you please add an issue to the tracker for this change and assign it to yourself, so we have a record of the change in our changelog?

Hi! Thanks . I modified the code to set the default option as true and created an issue, assigned to myself, at Feature #4423.
