Modding Morrowind
First of all, this is not the same of this question.
I finally decided to buy Morrowind, even against all my personal opinions about old graphics games so in order to minimize this I'm researching, without success so far, about mods.
My question is, plain and simple, what is the proper way to install and manage Morrowind mods?
Maybe due its age, I'm having serious difficulty in finding good and detailed articles (with screenshot, preferably) about this matter. Not like I'm expecting to find something like S.T.E.P. for Skyrim, but, you know.
I already found some mods recommendations and so but I haven't found yet a detailed guide on how exactly apply them. I've gather informations, though. Informations that said modding Morrowind is "old-school style", which means, manually.
It seems there is no "Mod Organizer" for Morrowind, that keeps the install directory clean, but I would really like to know that there is something better than Nexus Mod Manager.

Wrye Mash is a very, very powerful modding and game tweaking tool I've used myself when I used to mod Morrowind a lot. It let's you modify your saves, it can try to repair your savegames if something is broken and so forth.
It's not like Mod Organizer for Skyrim, so you can't keep your data files clean (It's been a while since I used it, there might be a way to do it nowadays.) but it is by far the best mod manager for Morrowind.
It does take a while to learn, since it's a bit complex.

Can you mod Morrowind?
The manual installation of a mod is as simple as copying files into their correct destination folders, and then activating the mod in Morrowind's launcher. It's made even easier that most mods are distributed with a replication of the data folder; so that you can clearly see into what folders every file must go into.Is Morrowind better with mods?
