If you just installed this modlist or ar updating it you need to always run the following steps in this order:
📃 Memory Management
The game still struggles with the 32bit memory limit the program has. There are a couple of things you can do to aleviate the issue. And make sure you have the mod Memory Monitor installed, it will display when the game is about to crash.
Ini Tweaks
There are some ini tweaks you can do to help with memory:
Click the Tools button, and click INI Editor. morrowind.ini will now open.
Use CTRL+F to input the section names and edit the respective entries to use these values.
External Programs
You may configure an exception in your Anti-Virus program for the Morrowind directory
Close overlays or programs like RivaTuner Statistics Server before starting Morrowind if you have memory proplems while in game

In the Mods tab, select one or more plugins to clean.
With the plugin selected, right-click and click Clean with tes3cmd.
After the process is over, close the window.
Clean all mods except for the following:

04 Synchronizing mod masters
Run Wrye Mash (mash64) in Mod Organizer 2.
In the Mods tab, you will see a list with all your plugins, both active and inactive. Plugins that do not need to have their masters synchronized have a green box next to them. Those that do need to have their masters synchronized will have a box of a different color.
Click on the faulty plugin, and a panel to the right will display the plugin's masters. Right click on either of them, and an Update Masters window will appear. Click Yes.
Once the window has closed, click on the Save button further below the same panel.
Repeat this process for each of the faulty plugins.
05 TES3Merge
Run TES3Merge in Mod Organizer 2.
The tool will generate a Merged Objects.esp, solving conflicts in your load order.
Activate Merged Objects.esp at the end of your load order.
06 Updating and repairing saves
Run Wrye Mash (mash64) in Mod Organizer 2.
In the Saves tab, you will see a list with all your saves. Saves that do not need to be synchronized have a purple box next to them. Those that do need to have their masters synchronized will have a box of a different color.
Click on the faulty save, and a panel to the right will display the save's masters and plugins. Right click on any of them, and an Update Masters window will appear. Click Yes.
Should you have uninstalled plugins in an on-going save, an Update Masters window will appear telling you some masters were automatically deselected (as they are no longer present in your load order). Read the description on the box, as it tells you how to proceed if this isn't what you expected to happen. Otherwise, click OK.
Once the window has closed, right click on the Master header above your save's masters and plugins, and click Sync to Load List.
Click on the Save button further below the same panel.
The next step is to repair our updated save.
Right click on the save updated in the previous step, and click on Repair All. Wrye Mash will repair your save file.
You will get a message window with two possible outcomes: your save has been repaired by Wrye Mash, or Wrye Mash will tell you no problems where found. Close the window.
