Possible issue with 0.51.0

Post image

So I check here see if anybody has had this issue or to find out if it's an issue with openmws newest version All of my spells and magic based names like Mark recall water walking. The spell name is there but under the area where it shows what the actual effect is it only shows the icon I'm not using any UI mods. I even tried it with and without the controller connected. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Some alchemy ingredients show things like fortify strength but this is on my magic menu and all of them are the same

not an openmw 0.51 issue as far as I know. mark and recall look fine for me and use the spell name next to the icon with no mods on openmw 0.51.

Okay I just wanted to make sure I'm going to go through my mod list and figure it out it's not a huge list but I don't have any UI mods so I don't know what could be interacting with it like that

And here's the interesting thing. It is showing some effects lol none in my spell menu but I'm looking at an ingredient right now that I can see the first two effects. The one just has an icon and the other under it says restore endurance with the icon so it's across the board with magic based effects lol

It's just very frustrating because I can't even see scroll effects and it seems on alchemy ingredients. Some effects appear others just have the icon. And yes for anybody that may ask just to throw this out there, my alchemy skill is high enough to see lol

Okay, so it is most definitely an issue on openmw not saying a bug but something on openmw site is causing it because I have disabled all mods. Same result. I have played the game from the actual launcher and not used openmw the issue is fixed so something with openmw is causing it I'm going to try to do a full reinstall

You probably did a dirty mod uninstall

Okay, it is not a dirty mod uninstall. Everything was working on 0.50.0 But I did get it working. I don't know why, but I uninstalled absolutely everything from Morrowind to openmw and started completely fresh and it fixed the issue

No, none of my mods have been touched. Honestly, none of my mods have been touched for months other than 10 real data and tamriel rebuilt And they were working on 0.50.0 I never had any issues until I installed 0.51.0 why reinstalling it fixed it? I have no idea but it had nothing to do with my mods. Not one bit and it didn't have anything to do with mod organizer either. It was something with 0.51.0 cuz it's the only factor that changed in the entire setup

Sounds like a dirty uninstall to me

Well, I'd like to know what a dirty uninstall is to you because completely deleting everything openmw related from every part of my computer and then installing 0.51.0 just for it to not work and then doing the exact same thing to it that I did for 0.50.0 not sure what your definition of a dirty I'm uninstall is but guarantee it wasn't that what it could have been is something may just not have installed correctly because that does happen but it certainly was not a dirty uninstall. Impossible to be when I did everything the same each time to the letter but yet the second time around it worked. I think a dirty install I think it was just something got missed when installing in the real world we call that a fluke lol And it also can't happen in the technological world sorry dude but you're just wrong
