Morrowind Mod:Mods

What Goes Here

For policies and guidelines on documenting mods, see UESPWiki:Mod.

This namespace is also used for articles on official Bethesda material primarily of interest to modders (e.g. Construction Set and Engine Bugs), and alternative game engines (e.g. OpenMW).

Alternative Game Engines

• OpenMW — A ground-up, open-source reimplementation of a Morrowind engine along modern principles, and usable on Mac OS and Linux as well as MS Windows. It requires the original Morrowind game files (but does not use its executables, and has its own configuration file). Is compatible with Tribunal, Bloodmoon, and all other official expansions and plugins. It is also compatible with most third-party mods, though not all of them (it has stricter code parsing than Bethesda's original engine, so script errors that Morrowind.exe would ignore may cause OpenMW to fail to compile a mod's scripts, or occasionally to crash). For known working and non-working mods, see the Mod Status page at the OpenMW wiki for details on mod compatibility. OpenMW has its own mod file format, .omwaddon, though it also reads the original .esp, .esm, and .bsa formats. Also has its own savegame format; it cannot be used with vanilla savegames, though there is an importing process. As of 2017, it is in long-term beta testing, and is fully playable, including all quests, factions, classes, races, and birthsigns.
• TES3MP — A fork of OpenMW that provides multiplayer functionality. It allows players to connect to public servers or set up their own servers. Just like the singleplayer game, TES3MP allows for various gameplay modifications that can be implemented through the enforcement of a loadout of clientside mods, or through serverside scripting or through a combination of both.

Specific Mods

New Lands

• Tamriel Rebuilt — A major work to create mainland Morrowind
• Project Tamriel — A collection of mods working to complete the rest of Tamriel
  • Skyrim: Home of the Nords — A large project aiming to recreate the province of Skyrim in Morrowind, prioritizing old lore such as the First Pocket Guide over lore from TES V: Skyrim
  • Province: Cyrodiil — A large project devoted to creating the province of Cyrodiil in Morrowind

Patches

• Morrowind Code Patch — Attempts to fix everything that can't be fixed by the Construction Set
• Morrowind Patch Project — A collaborative effort to fix many of the bugs, oversights, and annoyances in Morrowind and its expansions
• Patch for Purists — Another, actively developed bug fixing compilation, alternatively used instead of the above Morrowind Patch Project. These two patches are mutually incompatible.

Other

• Morrowind Overhaul — A comprehensive compilation of many popular and "essential" mods that (as the name suggests) completely overhaul the graphics, sound, and gameplay of Morrowind. Planned to be released in two packages that affect graphics/sound and gameplay respectively. The first is already out, the second is currently being worked on. Fully compatible with Tamriel Rebuilt.
• Morrowind Rebirth — Morrowind Rebirth is a total overhaul for The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind with the aim to enhance the gameplay by balancing certain aspects of the game, and by giving the player more to see and do. It is mostly compatible with Tamriel Rebuilt.
