Morrowind Mod:Mod File Format/MGEF

MGEF records contain information about magic effects.

Note that the names of the effects are hardcoded. Missing visual effects default to VFX_DefaultArea, VFX_DefaultBolt, etc.

Effect Indices

The exact mapping of index to game setting (and hence name) is hardcoded into the executable. Summon Fabricant is defined in Tribunal and duplicated in Bloodmoon. The entries after that are technically defined in both Tribunal and Bloodmoon, but only Bloodmoon provides names for the three defined summon spells (Tribunal just repeats the game setting name as the English name).
