TESRenewal “has revisited the foundational concept art of this city and worked to realize some of the original designs that were scrapped due to the technical limitations of the original Morrowind engine.” From animations to 3D modeling and all the way to level design, TESRenewal said that major strides have been made by every member of the team. The development update video notably gives us our first solid look at Skywind’s version of Vivec City. There’s still no release date set for Skywind, but the team said that “not a day goes by without progress being made, and while there’s plenty still to do, we’re closer than ever.” The new footage serves as an overview of everything the team has been working on throughout the last year, including areas, armors, weapons, features, and more gameplay. Skyblivion is an overhaul mod of Oblivion using the Creation Engine, though that project is yet to get a projected release date as well.The Elder Scrolls Renewal Project (TESRenewal) has released another development update video for its ambitious Skywind mod, which aims to essentially recreate The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind with the The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim engine. Going alongside Skywind, a sister development team is working on Skyblivion. Skywind is planned to be a non-commercial release for PC only, as the development team doesn’t have access to Skyrim’s Script Extender for a console port due to copyright barriers. Skywind will launch through Skyrim: Special Edition and will use Skyrim’s UI over Morrowind’s.Ĭurrently, Skywind does not have a release date or a playable build. To be able to play Skywind, players will need both Skryim: Special Edition and Morrowind with both DLCs, or the game of the year edition of Morrowind. For comparison, Skyrim featured 70 voice actors and Fallout 4 had 151, including Ron Pearlman who is the narrator for Fallout but isn’t featured as a character during gameplay. The developers claimed that Skywind will feature over 200 voice actors. Developers claim that only a few more assets need meshes and textures, and then they will finish completing the dungeons.Īfter demonstrating the magic system along with the spell “levitate,” it was revealed that Skywind will have fully voiced dialogue instead of the text boxes in the 2002 release of Morrowind.

Developers also showed off new character models that sported new rigging giving them smoother animations. The video is a mixture of updates and a request for additional support, though the team hinted at nearing completion.Ĭapitalizing on a decade’s worth of advancements in technology, Skywind intends on recreating all of the isle of Vvardenfell with new meshes and models.

The development team has been quiet on updates for the past three years but the team released a new development video on the 10th of January.

Skywind started out as a conversion mod, and then turned into an ambitious recreation of Morrowind using Skyrim’s Creation Engine.
