Returning player (Add on Must haves?)

AlmightyGoldfish · July 2017

Returned after a year or two hiatus and recently been playing the Morrowind Expansion;

Wondering since all the changes the must haves for addons (mainly a PVE player that focuses on crafting/questing and completing zones 100%).

Suggestions?

Start by downloading the Minion add-on client, this makes installing less hassle and you can just search and install via that.

MasterMerchant - Tracks sales in guild stores so you have market data.
AwesomeGuildStore - Makes the trader UI not terrible.

FTC/Advance/Dark UI - Any of these are the popular UI change ones.
Inventory Grid View - Makes inventory management easier by letting you turn items into a grid layout like other MMO games.
Advanced Filters - Under each filter option in the inventory there will be another set of filters.

Srendar - Buff tracker

Lazy Writ - Does all your writ work for you, if you're doing them every day it save much of your game time.

SkyShards - Show all Skyshard locations on the map.
Lore Books - Shows all books on the map.

There are loads more but I will let others post as I don't use a great deal of them.

Thank you so much; looking into them now!

Oh, I should post again to let you know that if you haven't already you're going to want to look at adjusting your LUA limit (unless they've done this themselves now) as otherwise you're going to get a lot of errors.

It is not a thing anymore. With Morrowind release they did some changes with regard to it and there is no "LUAMemoryLimitMB" line in your UserSetting.txt file anymore.

Cheers, I thought I remembered something about it but couldn't place it. Knowledge filed away as to advise others in future.

I would say craft store is the best crafting addon out there and potion maker

If you started out playing the single-player TES (or any game with fog of war on maps) and want it back, there's TrueExploration. Be warned, though: It doesn't keep track of landmarks you've already found. Which means you can have a zone thoroughly explored, but it will be covered over- it makes more sense, most likely, to use this add-on with a new character- perhaps in a new alliance?

No one's mentioned mini maps!

Votan's is a good one, and is kept updated.
