Morrowind Enchanted Editor v0.91c

Description:

This is a modding tool designed to do things that
a) you can't do in Construction Kit
b) are difficult in Contruction Kit

Its not intended to replace but to complement the CK. The CK hides certain information from you and doesn't do save games. At a certain level, however, master files, plugins and save games have exactly the same structure. The Enchanted Editor shows you the information at this level. Its not intended for anyone who isn't willing to occassionally squint at the screen and think hard, because obviously the higher level information in CK is more meaningfully laid out. However if you put in the effort you have complete control over everything in a plugin, master or save game, rather than the limited control you have in CK.

You can always edit any file in a hex editor but that doesn't interpret information for you, which the Enchanted Editor does. So in a hex editor your character name in your save game looks like this (decimal): 68, 105, 101, 115, 101, 108 whereas in this editor it shows up as "Diesel". Of course in this editor its shown in the structure it appears in in the underlying file rather than the nice bundled together on a form way it does in CK. In CK, for instance, to get to an NPC Faction and rank you must double click that NPC and get a nice layed out form. In the Enchanted Editor you have to find the "NPC_" record, scroll down to the "ANAM" subrecord, and edit or read the data in it.

TESAME, a great tool used by many modders to access at this level and clean up stuff they can't get to in the CK, also accesses at this level, but doesn't allow editing of subrecords. This editor not only allows editing, but tailors the editing to the type of subrecord and property being edited. File lookups have a browse files (...) button. Entries that look up other records (like the class for an NPC) have a lookup (...) button. Book text entries not only allow you to edit the HTML text of the book, but actually preview what the book will look like with a Morrowind paper background! Access the player journal ("JOUR") record in your save game, open the "NAME" subrecord and edit the "Text" property and voila, a custom entry in your journal!

In other words it gives you the advantage of a low level editor, but packed with high level functionality to make low level editing easier. I hope this helps you understand what the Enchanted Editor does.

06/01/2013 - Fixed title, author, description, mirror, added screenshot.  This file contains an exe installer. I note that while the file date on the installer for this one is slightly older, the filsize of the installer is identical and so it is likely identical to Morrowind Enchanted Editor v0.91c. I also note this file do have an html readme while the other one has only the exe installer. - Spirithawke
