Does anyone have a fully modded Morrowind mod folder they can send me using either the Pastebin mod guide or the STEP guide?

I know this seems lazy on my part but after buying it on GOG last year I've been put off trying it because I remember the days I spent modding Oblivion then Skyrim as well as Fallout 3/New Vegas...I just don't have the time or patience anymore, I wince at the thought of trawling through mod guides and the trial and error only to spend a few hours playing and lose enthusiasm.
I know I could play it vanilla..but I'm a tart who likes nice graphics and usability. I'd considered the MGSO 3.0 overhaul but apparently it's outdated, has bugs, and needs patching with another dedicated guide. Even the pastebin guide has a patching guide to go on top of it! Has anyone gone through these guides successfully without blowing their brains out?
 
I've not got that much experience where modding Morrowind is concerned, but I think there are one or two large mods out there worth playing like, for example, 'Morrowind Overhaul - Sound and Graphics'. These should be pretty easy to install and not leave you scratching around for files here and there. I can recommend the sound & graphics overhaul which I played a few years back, though I've not yet tried rebirth out.

I think the latest release for the rebirth mod is 4.12, but I didn't look extensively for any footage of that (4.13 now).

One of the main mods, "Graphics Overhaul", changes a couple of things in your system which won't happen by just copying a folder. I would suggest installing the Graphics Overhaul mod yourself; it is very easy and anything complicated is automated.

I would also recommend downloading accurate attack (a simple "copy and paste into the Data folder" jobbie) which means your attacks hit every time (assuming you're in range etc) rather than having a chance of hitting. This makes it more like Oblivion and Skyrim and less like old school RPGs. I cam from Oblivion and Skyrim and the combat was very annoying until I looked up this mod. Install this mod first, so that when the "mod re-ordering" stage of the Graphics Overhaul mod happens, it takes into account your other mods.

Here is some more motivation:

As I said, the overhaul 3.0 mod was the most promising, but to bring it up to scratch you need to spend a load of time modding the mod to squash bugs.

Morrowind Rebirth changes too much for my liking. Reading the changelog they mess around with core gameplay values in the name of 'balance'. I'm looking to make it pretty and stable, but keep the gameplay close to vanilla. For that reason I'd forego combat mods like 100% hit rate.
Those screenshots are what I'm looking for, MSGO 3.0? Did you do the second round of modding to it from here?
 
I can't say I remember much, if anything, in the way of bugs in MOSG. I'm sure there must be some but nothing noteworthy springs to mind, though I should add that I did play it quite a while back.
 
Op, you describe the very reason I still have yet to even finish Skyrim main campaign. Install, mod it a bit, starts to crash, never get far before giving up, uninstall :D
 
I was going to make a Morrowind thread myself but seeing as this one already exists I might as well post here.

I'm so confused with the massive amount of mods available for Morrowind. All I really want is a code patch mod that will fix all the bugs in the original game and a graphics mod that will make it play a bit better. Everything else I'm happy with as I never completed the original game and I'd love to play it all the way through. Can anyone recommend the smallest number of mods and their names to get Morrowind to be playable in this day and age on a good modern PC?

Any help is appreciated :).
