With the release of version 0.37.0, OpenMW celebrates another milestone as it has completely switched rendering engine which drastically improves performance (at the cost of some graphical features, for now) So, what is it? It's a multi-platform, open source implementation of a fully featured Morrowind engine and its construction kit. The current version allows you to play main game and the expansion + any plugins which do not rely on any kind of .exe injectors should function properly as well. Tamriel Rebuilt, here I come! The engine is still in beta tho, so bugs are to be expected and some features don't quite work as they should. What's it good for? Linux/Mac support, runs well on modern versions of Windows, natively supports widescreen resolutions. Optional features include dynamic shadows (temporarily removed for the new rendering engine), a ton of fixes of the original engine's bugs, native distant land - basically, end goal is that you no longer need to run any external software to play the game properly and full support of modern operating systems. There are also some quality of life improvements, like saves getting automatically grouped by character to which they belong. Where do I get it? https://openmw.org/en/
Is it awesome?
It's friggin' Morrowind, of course it's awesome! For ****'s sake, why are you asking such stupid questions? Dear Lord, you're an idiot, Fenixp.
