PRE-REQUISITES:

TES3MP: https://github.com/TES3MP/openmw-tes3mp/releases

How to:

Start at least the game one time if it is a fresh install or you never open the game before (use the launcher to select the mods/expansions).
Download and extract TES3MP.
Start openmw-wizard.exe and set the game. Here is a quick guide that explains how to setup TES3MP: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/mwmulti/discussions/2/353915309331818721/#c359543542237902104 Also TES3MP F.A.Q. : https://steamcommunity.com/groups/mwmulti/discussions/1/353916184342480541/

Now the game should be ready for Nucleus-Coop. After you downloaded the script, select tes3mp.exe inside Nucleus-Coop.

At the start, the game will ask you to make an account for the server (name[is gonna be the in-game name] and password). Make it easy to remember or write it down for the next time you gonna play the game.
When all instances are set and ready, click ok on the last prompt (if present) and press END.

The script has two modes:

-'local-server' will start a dedicated server and make all the instances join in. Enable prompts if you need to create new profiles (be sure that the instance is fully set before starting the next one). When all instances are set press the 'END' key to restrict the input (press it again if you want to release it). By default, the password is 'nucleus'. You can edit the server password inside the script (.js file in the scripts folder). When you close the game, wait until the server saves for each player before closing the cmd window;

-'server-browser' will launch the server browser to let you pick a server. This mode must use prompts (enabled by default). When you logged-in/created your profile and the player is ready to play, click 'ok' on the Nucleus-Coop prompt. Do the same things for each player. This mode will restrict the input from the start ( no need to press END).

Notes:

Press F2 twice to hide the chat (better do it before the next instance starts for gamepads players).
If the cursor doesn't show up for the gamepad instances, try open/close the inventory multiple times and click some buttons.
