Hi, I'm trying to get OpenMW patched with the official 1.6 patch on a Mac. I was able to get the steam version of the game installed and running, everything is very smooth and I'm super excited to play Morrowind again! So a big thank you to everyone who put in work on this project.
I had about a billion mods on my old Windows version of the game but never Tamriel Rebuilt, so I decided now I will finally play it, but it requires the 1.6 patch which I am unable to use on a Mac. How would I go about fixing that? Can I patch the Morrowind.exe on a Windows machine and then bring it back over and copy/replace the one on my Mac? Or does the patch effect more than just Morrowind.exe?

Re: 1.6 Patch on Mac
I assume that you are referring to the morrowind patch project version 1.6 here, but I am pretty sure that the morrowind patches are not OpenMW compatible. I am not a dev, and I would ask one of the devs to be sure.naranjero wrote: ↑29 Mar 2020, 20:24 Hi, I'm trying to get OpenMW patched with the official 1.6 patch on a Mac.

Re: 1.6 Patch on Mac
No, sorry for the confusion, but not the Morrowind Patch Project. I need the Bloodmoon 1.6.1820 patch from the Bethesda website. http://patches.bethsoft.com/
Re: 1.6 Patch on Mac
OpenMW doesn't use the Morrowind.exe file, it is a replacement for it. It just uses the data files. As long as you have the data files installed and OpenMW, you should be good to go.
Re: 1.6 Patch on Mac
As an aside, the Steam version of Morrowind is fully patched with the latest 1.6 bloodmoon patch from Bethesda.
