Morrowind.ini Adjustments?
   

I remember reading a bunch of adjustments that could be made to the ini file at RPGDot but its gone off the news page by now...

I recently reformatted so I am trying to tweak Morrowind to run as smoothly as possible.

What were all those ini settings? I know of the FPS one, but that's it.

This is from several other posts:

Everyone that is having freeze problems or desktop crashes should go in to morrowind.ini file and edit Max FPS=240 to Max FPS=60.

----

credit for this one goes to Jim Adam on usenet.

In the Morrowind.ini file, change

DontThreadLoad=0

to

DontThreadLoad=1

This appears to disable the brief interittent loads that can happen as often as every few seconds on my system. Instead, you get a "Terrain Loading" message that pops up every couple of minutes.

So, the trade off is fewer pauses, but the ones you do get will be a second or two longer because the game isn't loading terrain on the fly.

-------

LinearMethod=1
LinearValue=3.0
LinearRadiusMult=1.0
;

UseQuadratic=1
QuadraticMethod=2
QuadraticValue=16.0
QuadraticRadiusMult=4.0
;

Additional shadows cast by NPCs and creatures (more shadows = performance hit):
Number of Shadows=32
Maximum Shadows Per Object=4
