Weird Trueflame Quirk (Minor Spoilers)

[Slug]

Hello, I've been playing Morrowind on and off almost since about the time the GOTY edition came out, and I'm pleasantly surprised that there are a few other people out there who still mess with the game. Anyway, there's something I've been wondering about for awhile now: why does my Trueflame look so funny? See for yourself... compare...

... the screenshot from the Morrowind walkthrough on this site. So, just out of curiosity, which does your Trueflame look more like? Mine, or the walkthrough's?

On a side note, my Hopesfire does the same thing. Except unlike Trueflame which actually still looks all right, my Hopesfire looks hideous. It still makes a nice decoration for my home though. The weapons only do this when you wield them, they look normal if you put them down on the ground.

Running any mods? or installed any texture packs or replacers?
This may account for the different look.

I'm currently playing with only Better Bodies and all the official mods installed. Better Bodies might explain that I guess, though the flame still does not match the sword when I load the same save without any mods. I'm not really going to go all out to try to fix it either. If your sword looks like it has fire coming out of its armpits but it still slices and dices, then your sword is still good!

Evil, meet sword! Sword, meet evil!

/Gaenor didn't laugh at my funny sword for long.

i have a problem with this two, with both of the swords, but i play GOTY on my xbox, since my comp cant run it, is it like that for all the xbox users too?

Yah, i have it for xbox as well, and the sword happend like that, but it only happened on my level 50 char, not on any others, so its probably a glitch, or if you are using a comp, its probably a mod or texture thing your using
