1. WHAT DOES CREATURE PACK DO?
*************************************************************************************************************
Creature pack is a mod that will add many new variations of existing creatures to various
Leveled-creature lists. It will increase the difficulty, add variation and forces the player
to search for weaknesses in their opponents. Version 1.1 will add over a hundred new creatures.

************************************************************************************************************
3. WILL I NEED TRIBUNAL FOR VERSION 1.5?
*************************************************************************************************************
Yes, Creature Pack 1.1 uses Tribunal-only artfiles. It is not possible to use this mod without owning Tribunal.
************************************************************************************************************
4. WILL I NEED BLOODMOON FOR VERSION 1.5?
*************************************************************************************************************
No, BloodMoon is not required for this mod.
************************************************************************************************************
5. WILL THERE BE AN UPDATE TO V1.2?
*************************************************************************************************************
No idea. Honestly.
************************************************************************************************************
6. WILL YOU USE THIRD-PARTY MODELS/TEXTURES IN 1.1
************************************************************************************************************
No. Quite a few people offered me their sklls for this, but I feel that I do not want this mod to become a 2nd GIANTS. Even though new models/textures are fun, I myself eventually considered it to be more fun when the new creatures would use the same artfiles as Morrowind itself. This way it feels more like it was always a part fo Morrowind.
I also noticed many people do not have access to a fast internet connection, which would not allow them to download a mod with multiple models/textures. In the end I concluded that new models/textures would not add enough.
************************************************************************************************************
7.BUT I DON’T WANT TO CHOSE BETWEEN GIANTS AND CREATURE PACK!
*************************************************************************************************************
One of the first descisions I made before making this update was that I wanted this mod to be fully compatible with GIANTS, Adventures are all other mods. So if you like both GIANTS and Creature Pack, then you could just use them both without any problems. Do note that this might make Morrowind more difficult then you ever wanted it to be though.
************************************************************************************************************
8.HOW DIFFICULT IS THIS MOD?
*************************************************************************************************************
That depends on your character. Most new creatures low-lvls can encounter are passive.* They would rather prevent fighting with you. After all, why would a young cliff racer be interested in attacking a armor-wearing warrior?
At higher levels the player will encounter creatures of epic strenght. It will most certainly make travelling around Vvardenfell and in the Mournhold sewers a lot more dangerous, and even the most renown hero will encounter situations where he is forced to run for his life.
If you, after using this mod, still consider Morrowind too easy, which is hghly unlikely if you have a high-lvl character, you could always install mods like GIANTS or Adventurers to further increase the difficulty.
*in order to prevent conflicts I did not change the settings of original morrowind creatures. If you want them to be passive as well you should download one of the mods that does this.
************************************************************************************************************
9. HOW LARGE WILL THE DOWNLOAD BE?
*************************************************************************************************************
Since this mod will not use third party models/textures the archive you’ll be able to download will be around 25kb. The mod itself will be a single ESP file, and will be smaller then 400kb.
************************************************************************************************************
10. WHAT IS THE CURRENT STATUS OF THE PROJECT?
*************************************************************************************************************
Release Candidate #1 is about to be send out for testing. Alpha and Beta test-phases have been completed. We are currently working hard on balancing all these creatures.
************************************************************************************************************
11. WHAT IS THE CURRENT STATUS OF THE PROJECT?
*************************************************************************************************************
There is no release date yet. If testing goes well I hope to release it either this or next week. If that is not possible it will have to be postponed due to other, real-life issues.
*************************************************************************
12. WILL THIS MOD LOWER MY FPS LIKE SOME OTHER CREATURE-MODS DO?
*************************************************************************
No. Due to the way this mod works the FPS will not change at all.
*************************************************************************
13. WILL THIS MOD ADD SPAWNPOINTS?
*************************************************************************
No, all creatures have been added to the lvl-ed lists. This way you dont have more encounters, the only thing that changes is that the encounters become more dangerous. It will 'feel' as it was always a part of Morrowind.
*************************************************************************
14. DO I NEED THE LVL-ED LIST MERGER?
*************************************************************************
Yes, if you use other mods that change the lvl-ed lists (eg. GIANTS), then you need to use the list merger. If you dont have such mods there is no need to use this tool.
*************************************************************************
15. DO I NEED TO START A NEW GAME TO SEE THE NEW CREATURES?
*************************************************************************
No, you can just enable it and enjoy your new challenges.
*************************************************************************
16. HOW DO I UPDATE FROM VERSION 1.0 TO 1.1?
*************************************************************************
Easy. Just disable the old one and enable the new one. If you need to use the list merger you should re-create the list.
