So I used Morrowind Graphics Extender to add Oblivion-style distant land to Morrowind. It looks great, and I really like it. The problem is, when it's enabled, if I alt-tab out of morrowind, and then back in, the game will crash. Although it doesn't crash right away. Rather, it crashes any time I try to do things like talk to a person, use an item, etc. I know that it's the distant land, because if I disable it, there's no alt-tab related crash anymore. It might not be such a big deal, except that I alt-tab a lot out of morrowind, to do things like check guides, maps, and what have you. Has anyone else run into this issue, and if so, found a way to fix it?

Well, I don't have your fix, but I will tell you that the readme clearly states that alt-tabbing out of Morrowind while Distant land is enabled will cause an eventual crash. Best bet that I'd think of, but haven't tried yet, is running it windowed. *shrugs*
