Crossing my fingers this solves the biggest problem with Morrowind...not the slavery or the xenophobia, the racism and religious zealotry, the massive and unstable volcano, no...it's the fact that they hate money for some unholy reason
edit: doesn't seem to be working for the few merchants i've tried, i'll keep looking edit2: seems to be working on most vendors but not all, yay :)
Using MO2 and renaming it to a .esp works in openmw .48. I added it mid-playthrough, and I had to wait a few in-game days for vendors to have 10x money. I'll never be forced to rely on Creeper again!!
Unpacked zip to a /Mods/More Gold for Merchants folder (which is arbitrary). In the OpenMW Launcher, tabbed to Data Directories, clicked Append, added that directory, tabbed to Content Files, enabled More Gold For Merchants.omwaddon. Perfect.
Thanks for doing this. In the vanilla game, one could expand vendor gold by selling them some. It made sense to me as you were giving them a small business loan to expand their business. Probably the most common type of loan there is in RL but players seemed to find it broken. Plus, the player had to earn that money in the first place.
Why the OpenMW devs had a problem with this, I cannot say. Now we have to have patches where merchants are all just straight up loaded. Heck, if they had that much cash with no loan repayments, why would they be doing business in a backwater like Morrowind anyways? Whatever. Thanks again.

aside from that everything works.
