hi guys , i am up to the part in wizards island mod after you go into the shadowfrost mine , and then into the cultists area , and as soon as i go from the bridge to the first cell in the cults rooms i get savere '' lagg !! i mean really terrrible about 1 fps im thinking the music goes all chunky , anyway apart from this the head guy want you to plunder the remains of a dead mage '' daroth '' it takes me about 10 minutes to get to his lair but then i get this error when i try to open the door- SCRIPT ERROR :EXPRESSION IN WI_C_DAROTHDOOR . then even after disarming the trap and picking the lock i cant open the door i am stuck here for good please help me !!

sorry but some of us haven't used this mod...best thing to do is see if the person who created the mod left some kind of email address or some way to contact them...if they have tell them about the error...this will alert them, so they can fix the error for you and for the download if anyone else downloads the mod

yeah thanx shadowj for the reply ,yes i did think about emailing one member of the huge team who put together this mod . but then thought the guys that created this mod have put a massive amount of effort into it 3 years actually''
so i just dident want to whinge to them about somthing that is free to download , they make no profeit from this mod ,

ok so what happened the lag is still there i cant get passed that it may be a mod conflict as i have about 12 going . as for the SCRIPT ERROR it only happened once so i am on my merry way to the goblins lair

yeah shadowj i cant believe no one has played wizards island mod around here it is a huge mod, exellent storyline,awesome textures and tough creatures to kill
and heaps of quests definently worth the download!!

they wouldn't see it as whinging since if it is a major problem they can sort it out instead of getting alot of complaints and such...telling the people who made it helps them find glitches/bugs and general mistakes, which helps them become better at making mods and if they know why it happens they can stop it from happening again and such

that's why the major game making companies hire Game testers...the game testers play a game over and over and over again in the many stages of the making process...they then compose a report to give the programmers

for example, in beth soft when making Morrowind, they would build Balmora, just the town then ask a games tester to test everything within Balmora

a tester could find many problems in there such as

NPC Hul doesn't respond when topic "whatever you asked him" is asked

Hlaalu guards don't ask player if they want to pay fine, resist arrest or go to jail, they just attack instead

no way out of river, player is stuck if they don't have a levitate potion, spell or scroll

from there the programmers would correct the mistakes and try it again, the same games tester would retry and see if the mistakes are corrected, they can then give an idea like

maybe adding a fighter guild HQ and an armourer

and so on

also I rarely play mods these days after I had to format my comp but when I did I played the GIANTS and predator mods

hey shadowj , yeah your probly right in saying that'' however i was able to finish the mainquest, and get this when you finish the main quest they give you 3 special items i wont say exactly what they are , but its so cool.

so shadowj you formatted aye ' man i do it every 8 months or so but i have a massive archive of all my saved games in another drive i have over a terabyte of space so after learning the hard way of not backing up my morrowind save games i just copy the whole >data files< folder on my other driver , so i dont get the plugins could not find there blah blah blah ''message .its getting pretty big now too 3.29 gig to be exact .
well wizards island takes up over a gig << wow big mod , actually bigger then the original game probly due to all the optimized textures and stuff .

yeah sorry if confused anyone out there about my lag issue as i was only affected with it in a very small part of the game > in the cultists rooms below the shadowfrost mine .

i dont usually get any lag at all but this mod is intensive to say the least ''i have a ninja pc and it laggs a litte not everywhere just when the blizzards come i guess .

it could just be my arrangment of mods i have going , but then again i saw a dude with exactly the same prob i will have to hunt him down and see what mods he has plugged in

thanx again shadowj appreciate your effort as you seem to be the only one who contributes on this site
