ERROR: Unknown fallback name: FontColor_color_header
|
|
####################################################
|
|
|
|
:Symptoms:
|
|
OpenMW crashes at startup with
|
|
``ERROR: Unknown fallback name: FontColor_color_header``
|
|
message at the end of ``openmw.log``, located `here </docs/source/reference/modding/paths>`_.
|
|
|
|
:Cause:
|
|
The OpenMW `configuration file </docs/source/reference/modding/paths>`_ ``openmw.cfg``
|
|
is severely lacking and missing fallback values
|
|
because "Settings Importer" was not run correctly.
|
|
|
|
:Fix:
|
|
Re-run "Settings Importer" from the OpenMW launcher.
|
|
|
|
Installing game files via Steam on macOS: DISK WRITE ERROR
|
|
##########################################################
|
|
|
|
:Symptoms:
|
|
Steam stages the download for Morrowind, but does not proceed.
|
|
The download will read "Paused: DISK WRITE ERROR".
|
|
|
|
:Cause:
|
|
The OpenMW `configuration file </docs/source/reference/modding/paths>`_ ``openmw.cfg``
|
|
is severely lacking and missing fallback values
|
|
because "Settings Importer" was not run correctly.
|
|
|
|
:Fix:
|
|
Open appmanifest_22320.acf in your favorite text editor.
|
|
Locate or create an entry under the "StateFlags" entry titled "installdir"
|
|
and give it the value "Morrowind".
|
|
Your file should now look something like this::
|
|
|
|
"AppState"
|
|
{
|
|
"appid" "22320"
|
|
"Universe" "1"
|
|
"name" "The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind"
|
|
"StateFlags" "4"
|
|
"installdir" "Morrowind"
|
|
|
|
[other entries]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Restart the Steam client. The download should now proceed.

In-game textures show up as pink
|
|
################################
|
|
|
|
:Symptoms:
|
|
Some textures don't show up and are replaced by pink "filler" textures.
|
|
|
|
:Cause:
|
|
Textures shipped with Morrowind are compressed with S3TC, a texture compression algorithm that was patented in
|
|
the United States until October 2017. Software drivers and operating system distributions released before that date
|
|
may not include support for this algorithm.
|
|
|
|
:Fix:
|
|
Upgrade your graphics drivers and/or operating system to the latest version.
|
|
|
|
Music plays, but only a black screen is shown
|
|
#############################################
|
|
|
|
:Symptoms:
|
|
When launching OpenMW, audio is heard but there is only a black screen.
|
|
|
|
:Cause:
|
|
This can occur when you did not import the Morrowind.ini file when the launcher asked for it.
|
|
|
|
:Fix:
|
|
To fix it, you need to delete the `launcher.cfg` file from your configuration path
|
|
([Path description on Wiki](https://wiki.openmw.org/index.php?title=Paths)), then start the launcher, select your
|
|
Morrowind installation, and when the launcher asks whether the `Morrowind.ini` file should be imported, make sure
|
|
to select "Yes". |
