After about 6 (!) months I recently finished a streamed playthrough of Morrowind. As finished as TES III can get anyway - the main quests of the base game and the two expansions complete. I played with around 85 mods, mostly sourced from the lists on Modding OpenMW.

After the cut you'll find a list of the mods I used with links back to nexusmods where they can be downloaded. Like the other modded game I played in 2025 I don't recommend this list. It's a better idea to pick one from modding-openmw.com and start from there.

I recently finished a modded game of Fallout New Vegas that I streamed on twitch. It was a good time & I used a pretty fun selection of recent (2020? and later) mods that resulted in a mostly crash-free and fun experience.

After the cut you'll find a list of the mods I had installed, all ~130 of them, with links back to nexusmods where they can be downloaded. I don't recommend this list, you should use (or at least start from) Viva New Vegas instead, but I'll pass this list on anyway (for my own records and because people asked for it).

Electro in the 130s today featuring a few nice old Dominance Electricity tunes plus one relatively recent breakbeat track by Paradox.

Intro & Problem

For years I used a Stanton SCS.4DJ standalone player / mixer to play digital music in mixes. The SCS.4DJ comes with a program called QuickGrid that is used to generate metadata for music files you plan to play on the device. Notably QuickGrid takes care of calculating BPM, generating waveform displays, and so on.

Unfortunately QuickGrid is only publicly available for Windows and OS X, and I'm a BSD / Linux user. So, after a bit of investigation, I wrote a shell script wrapper around the djanalyze.exe program that comes with the QuickGrid software package. This script lets me do everything QuickGrid does from the comfort of my FreeBSD machine.

Here's a little about that shell script, scs4tool.sh:

Electro right around ~130 today. One new(ish) track by Vektorspace, a few old tracks from Brokntoys and CPU Records, and (of course) a bunch of old favorites.
