Tracy, that map I linked to should allow you to search for places. I'd used it years ago and forgot about it, but it can be a life saver, or at least a frayed-nerve saver.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

Looney and Mad---Me too! I live in Colorado but all of my family is back east and so I'd love a teleporter for RL so I could zoom back and forth without having to deal with flying. UGH! Thanks Hagatha btw---this IS a really good map and it's just what I needed. Tracy

I do like getting lost in Morrowind, though. It's part of the game's charm, especially up north when the dust rises. You can end up a very long way from where you thought you were going - and that's how I usually find those remote dungeons.
By the way, I just checked and the lowest Morrowind speed run I could find on YouTube was about 4 minutes! Very amusing when I think about those hundreds of hours I've spent travelling the highways and byways.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

I, too, can get lost for hours when trying to find a oarticular place - but I enjoy the sightseeing along the way it and it does all goes towards "experience" in the long run  And I, too, wonder what this "speedrun" is, Hagatha

sigh. That's one of my favorite things about this game--wandering forever and getting lost, only to find something neat that I wasn't even looking for!  I have to say, event though I liked Skyrim, I never felt that way while wandering because I was just waiting for spiders to grab me when I entered a cave! UGH!

Tracy said: Hi again guys. I just HAD to post because I'm so excited! I am playing Bloodmoon for the first time---I finally got it to work! Yahoo! I can't tell you how fun it is to be in a new place with new sights and new dialogs, new clothing, new enemies, etc. etc. It's just awesome and I'm going to be forever grateful to the guy on the internet who was telling people how to get this expansion running if they have Windows 7----"Run as administrator". It really has worked and so I wanted to tell you guys. Tracy, off to Solstheim again, hoping to play til hubby gets home from work! lol

Woo Hoo Tracy, so glad you got it to work. Did you have to jump through mega hoops?

Hi Looney! Well I poked around the net for ages and I finally found a site with a forum for Morrowind issues and the guy mentioned that he got Bloodmoon to run on Windows 7 by running it as an administrator. So I installed Bloodmoon and then closed out of it, right clicked on the icon for Morrowind and clicked "run as administrator", then the screen with all of the info like Play, Exit, etc. came up but this time with a snowy-looking Bloodmoon background! I was so psyched! The only problem is that I didn't run my old Morrowind game as an administrator, so I had to start this game as a total newbie. Still it's worth it to get to see new places and new characters, and to have new quests! I'm so tickled and I really like Solstheim....soon I'm going to have to look for house mods for it so I can find a good warm place to snuggle up in when it snows. lol Tracy
