I recently installed s3maphore on openmw to play the MUSE expansions (Redoran, Hlaalu, etc...) only with s3mafore vanilla music plays without issues, then proceed to install MUSE expansions and it's music plays also but when I get out to the world and start a fight with a random monster (a rat or a scrib) the music stops and doesn't play any music at all (no vanilla or any custom the MUSE expansions may have). Dunno what to do to fix it

Anyone has this anoying visual bug with OpenMW?

I uninstalled everything, got back with a clean install. Still doing it. Its not every where, and sometimes textures on walls start sliding indefinitly, or the faces on npcs become weird and no more text, or very small. Super weird.

Please help

So basically I have to touch next to the icon to for me to to actually interact with it it happens during dialogue and maps and menus pls help it's so hard to interact.cause it's like a exact spot only it works near the icon it so time consuming

Ive tried a few versions namely Andiweli OpenMW but I was unable to disable on screen controls without losing on screen keyboard functionality. Is there a version that has better controller support specifically gamepad?

A few days ago, I discovered a really interesting RP server called Silt Strider. The project has been around for quite a while, but I couldn't find much discussion about it outside of its own Discord server.

The server features a ton of mods, including expanded explorable areas, improved graphics, and, most impressively, Al-powered NPCs. You can literally talk to almost any NPC you come across, and they'll respond to you!

Another thing that really impressed me was the community. Everyone is incredibly friendly and helpful. I'm new to RP servers, and I'm not exactly a Morrowind expert either, so I often ask the community questions. I always get answers quickly, without any

passive-aggressive comments, even when my questions are complete beginner-level stuff.

With this post, I'd like to help the server grow its player base and hopefully bring in at least a few new players. I'd also love to meet some new people and find others to roleplay with on the server!

Thanks to everyone who took the time to read this far! I'll leave the Discord server link below. Hope to see you all in-game! :)

Last week, I shared here that I believe OpenMW does not have to remain only an engine for running Morrowind, and that we had started developing an independent game with it. I honestly did not expect the level of interest we received; the post reached around 40,000 views and more than 390 upvotes. Shortly afterwards, we released V2 of the OpenMW Free Asset Library, and seeing that receive strong attention in such a short time was also highly motivating for us. We can now see the main bottleneck in front of the project much more clearly. Thanks to the Free Asset Library, we already have a substantial foundation for many of the environments, objects, weapons, armour pieces, and other 3D assets we will need in the short term. We hope this foundation will continue to grow through contributions from projects such as Open-Z. However, there is still a major gap in humanoid animation in particular. A 3D artist who could work with us on character and environment production would also significantly accelerate development.

For that reason, we would especially like to meet people with some background in Morrowind/OpenMW modding. You do not need to have released a mod before; personal experiments, unfinished projects, or simply spending time taking game files apart and figuring out how they work are all valuable to us. I also had an unreleased project in the past where I tried to bring the worlds of Pathologic and Morrowind together. What we are looking for is not simply someone who knows Blender, but someone who is familiar with the logic of Bethesda modding, NIF/KF structures, skeleton and animation systems, and the way assets relate to in-game records. If you have modded, edited assets for, worked with animations in, or simply spent a lot of time investigating the technical structure of games such as Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim, or Fallout: New Vegas, we would especially like to hear from you.

Experience with Morrowind/OpenMW modding, NIF and KF files, character skeleton and animation systems, OpenMW-CS or similar Bethesda-style content pipelines, rigging, animation retargeting, animation cleanup, and low-poly character, armour, clothing, or environment asset production would all be valuable to us. Knowing Blender or similar 3D tools is of course a major advantage, but what matters most to us is being able to use those tools within an OpenMW/NIF pipeline, or being willing and able to adapt quickly to that structure.

I also want to be completely transparent about our situation: Daktilo is still a small, pre-revenue independent studio, and at the moment we are not able to offer a salaried position. We are developing our first game as a small commercial project intended to help finance a larger second project. Because of this, for someone who wants to work directly with us on the game, we would be open to a revenue-sharing arrangement. If, over time, we discover that we work especially well together, we would also be open to discussing a place in Daktilo’s core team and a more permanent long-term partnership.

There is also a separate path for people who do not want to join the commercial project but would still like to contribute to the OpenMW ecosystem. Contributions of openly licensed animations, models, or other assets to the OpenMW Free Asset Library would not be limited to our own game; under the appropriate license terms, they could also be used by anyone developing independent OpenMW projects in the future. One of the main reasons we created the library in the first place was to build a shared foundation so that every new project would not have to begin from zero, with assets that can coexist within the same world and whose licensing status can be traced clearly.

We are a small team, and we are fully aware of that. At the same time, over the last few months we have also seen that OpenMW allows us to do far more than we initially expected. If you also believe OpenMW can be more than just Morrowind, and the idea of becoming part of this process interests you, feel free to get in touch.

Our manifesto:
https://www.furkanyasar.me/daktilo-studio/manifesto

First off I must say that this opinion is just for the mages guild. I am not sure how it works for others, but I imagine this problem may be extant elsewhere to some degree.

I enthusiastically applied the TR Faction patch because it made a lot of sense to me. More guild quests means you should progress slower so you can see it all.

But in practice what this has you doing is bouncing back and forth between continents A LOT as certain quest givers must wait for you to achieve a certain rank before they can continue getting quests from them.

I am not saying it needs to return to old values, but that the new values to me seem a bit high and rather inorganic in comparison to vanilla. It's not my intent to come across as critical, but I think the observation has value.

ive been setting up open mw and right as im ready to play im getting this odd bug no idea whats causing nor have i found anyone else thats run into this.

if anyone knows what could be causing this id love to know

First of all, thank you very much for the strong interest in my previous post. After weeks of careful cleanup, restructuring, and licensing work, I’m happy to present the second version of OpenMW Free Asset Library. Compared to the previous release, this version is much clearer, cleaner, and easier to use.

If you are developing an independent OpenMW game, you can use:

OpenMW_Free_Asset_Library_v2_Base.omwgame

as a base for your project.

If you already have a game or mod, you can use:

OpenMW_Free_Asset_Library_v2_Assets.omwaddon

as an additional content layer.

The purpose of this project is to build a shared and reusable asset library for people who want to develop independent games on the OpenMW platform. Work on Version 3 is also continuing. I would especially like to thank the OpenZ team for their support. They are currently continuing the licensing and preparation work for OpenZ assets that can be used with OpenMW. You can follow the progress here:

https://highfivesmc.fr/openz/models.html

I also have a few requests for the community. If you find the project useful, I would really appreciate it if you could star the GitHub repository, download and test the library through GitHub or Nexus Mods, and share any problems, corrections, or suggestions you find.

GitHub:

https://github.com/Kon-tiki-ship/openmw-free-asset-library

nexusmods:

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/60216?tab=files

I’m also not very experienced with Discord administration. Would it be possible to create a separate OpenMW Free Asset Library group, thread, or discussion area inside the OpenMW Discord? Having one place for contributions, bug reports, licensing information, and new assets would be very useful.

Another important issue is asset contribution. Over the years, a huge number of mods have been created for Morrowind and OpenMW. If you have animations, clothing, character assets, architecture, props, or other assets that you created and can release under an open license, please consider contributing them to the library.

Character animation is currently one of the biggest missing pieces of the project. The library already has a strong amount of character, armor, clothing, face, hair, and NPC content, but we still need a complete and openly licensed humanoid animation set. If you have compatible character animations, or if you are an animator interested in contributing such a set, please contact me directly. This would make a major difference to the usability of the library.

Think of it this way: one of us may have a television asset, while another has a telephone asset. The person with the telephone may need the television, and the person with the television may need the telephone. If everyone keeps their assets isolated inside individual projects, the same needs have to be solved again and again from scratch.

If we share compatible assets under clear open licenses, all of us benefit from it in the long run. I would really like this open asset library to become something the community can grow together, and I would be very happy to hear from anyone who wants to contribute.

If I activate the 'auto-use object normal maps' option in the shader menu, the fps drops from 120-180 down to 30-80 with some wild swings and a lot of stuttering while the data is loaded (?).

Note that the fps only drops when loading objects, like when using the scrolls of icarean flight, when entering a new cell from exterior, or when turning in a direction the camera hasn't aimed at before. after a few seconds the fps stabilizes again. See the graph in the screenshot above (white line).

Is this something that can be fixed with a config tweak or do I just need to keep that option off?

There is no video tutorial or anything regarding it.

People aren't even getting answers from the mods comment section. This mod looks promising. If someone knows how to use this mod. Tell me please.

Hello !

I'm looking to experience Morrowind for the first time, preferably entirely in VR, and was wondering if anyone has recommendations for a VR-friendly Wabbajack modlist.

I've been using OpenMW and recently tried installing the Path of the Incarnate modlist, but unfortunately, the game crashes immediately on startup whenever I try launching it through OpenMW-VR.exe.

I'm mainly looking for a modlist that offers some graphical improvements and quality of life enhancements without drastically changing the vanilla experience. Since this will be my first playthrough, I'd like to keep the core gameplay and story relatively intact while making the game look and feel a little more modern.

I'm pretty new to modding Morrowind specifically, but I've been modding Skyrim and Skyrim VR for several years, so I'm familiar with the basics of mod managers, load orders, troubleshooting, etc.

Does anyone know of any Wabbajack modlists that work well with OpenMW-VR? Alternatively, has anyone managed to get Path of the Incarnate working in VR?

I'd appreciate any recommendations or advice. Thanks!

Hello everyone, i'm new to all of this and i finally made OpenMw work on my vita (2.1 VPK bc the 2.2 is too unstable for me) and i would love to learn how to mod the game ! I know it can be a bit tricky to mod it and i don't want to lose my save by improvising ahaha. Couldn't find any tutorial online.
Tysm !

Hello! I am new to morrowind and i spent such a long time trying to get the full setup for tamriel rebuilt and home of the nords+project cyrodil running. So when i saw gog just added tamriel rebuilt i bought it and runs right out the box great. Hoever im still having trouble adding mods to it. I dont want anything super fancy just to add home of the nords and project cyrodil to it. No combat ovethauls, i dont need visuals or animations overhauled i just want vanillia + tam rebuilt, skyrim home of nords, and project cyrodil to run easy out the box. I can mod other games fine but something about elder scrolls always stumps me, anyone have a very simple guide to help me out? Id greatly appreciate any help at all!

Fully animated, full physics, hauls passengers and luggage. Includes a Taxi style minigame, earn some Septims in you spare time charging passengers a fare. Get it here

i dont have a Mac or TestFlight on ipad, just trollstore. i can't build the IPA so please someone provide me with one already built

It is really nice to see that the OpenMW Free Asset Library, which I recently released through another account, has received some interest :)

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/60216

Yes, the file structure was admittedly a little messy, but I will also share a more organized version with you soon. My main goal was to help OpenMW become an engine that more people might consider using in the future. I started by collecting and organizing assets from an old, mostly forgotten archive for use in a standalone system. I genuinely believe in the OpenMW engine.When I decided to use OpenMW for an independent game, some of my friends told me that it was not a widely known engine and that I should give up on the idea. But after months of work, I kept going without giving up, and eventually managed to convince them too. Recently, we have been seeing older graphical styles—especially PS2-era visuals—become popular again. Before that trend fades, I decided to strategically start developing a game with OpenMW. Naturally, I have also made use of assets from the OpenMW Free Asset Library. One of the nicest parts for me is that, apart from solving a few simple bugs, I have been able to make progress without relying heavily on AI. For an independent game, one of the most important things was also creating an independent interface and visual identity. I would like to sincerely thank ComeBESNIER for helping me with this and for all the support. ^^

As far as I have been able to determine, OpenMW has not yet been used for a commercially released standalone game, and I would really like to help change that. My current plan is to eventually release the game at a small and accessible price. Because of that, it is very important to me to avoid copyright or licensing problems with Bethesda. If you notice anything in the video that looks too close to Morrowind, I would really appreciate it if you could warn me.

One important note: in this video I am currently using Morrowind's original character animations as temporary placeholders. These will not be part of the commercial release. As you probably know, this is still a major gap in the OpenMW Free Asset Library. I have found several animation projects on Nexus Mods, but many of them do not allow their animations to be reused in unrelated standalone projects. So if anyone here has experience with `.kf` animations, character animation for OpenMW, or creating animations for compatible skeletons, I would be very happy to hear from you. Any help, advice, resources, or collaboration on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much for your interest. ^^

Hi all,

I'm looking for help with my mods installation so I can start playing. I have Morrowind from Steam. I've been following the video here, but when I ran umo setup in Powershell it doesn't include the "copy-paste your Morrowind installation location" like shown in the video, but instead went straight to "select a location for your modlist folder" ...

Did I need to run OpenMW wizard first and select the gamedata location there?

Trying to use a texture mod for imperial towns but this issue seems to persist even in vanilla. I know the solution can be found in the game files but idk what to do step by step
