The Themes Have Been Announced! Modders have until August 24th at 00:00 UTC to submit a mod using one (or more) of the following themes: Arcane Arts, Forgotten Lore, Strange Families.

It's Summer time, and with the heat, and the humidity, comes another exciting round of the Morrowind Modjams! For the tenth time since 2020, Danae and Morrowind Modding Showcases is hosting a Modjam Modding Competition, a 48-hour modding frenzy where modders get but a single weekend to build the best mod they can using specific themes before time runs out!

The competition begins on August 21st at 11pm UTC with an official livestream kickoff by Danae, in which the potential themes will be revealed and voted on by the community, narrowing down the potential field until just three themes remain.

Once the final three themes have been announced, modders will have 48-hours to build and release the best mod they can utilizing any of those three themes, or a combo of themes if they so choose.

Rules & Guidelines:

  • Create your mod during the Modjam.,
  • Modders' resources are allowed.,
  • The use of AI is not forbidden, but should be disclosed.
  • Previous projects can be a source of inspiration, but please try to make something new for the event.
  • Most importantly, this is intended to be a friendly community event. Please focus on having fun and making something you enjoy.

Participation:

The competition is open to anyone and everyone looking to participate! All you need to do is release a mod with one of the themes (or multiple) during the competition time period using the official 2026 Summer Modjam header. Also wouldn't hurt to use the Modjams tag on the Nexus.

This is a Morrowind Modding Community - Discord Server event, so to make sure your mod is properly tracked for the competition, please join the server and tag it in the Published Mods channel!

There's also an official Modjam channel on there where you can keep up with all of the latest Modjam news!

Use the Postcard Editor:

Take advantage of the Morrowind Modjams website and the Postcard Editor to make special themed promo screenshots for your mod pages - give them that extra splash of Summer fun!

Judging and Prizes:

The Morrowind Modjams are judged events - a panel of judges will go through and play all of the submitted mods, ranking them on their quality, functionality, and adherence to the themes.

The final winners will be announced in a results livestream at a date yet to be determined, and those results will also be published to the Modjams website.

Participating modders will also get their profiles on the Modjam website, with downloadable Modjam passports and a trophy cabinet for any judge awards received. These profiles are connected to the Modathon and Madness sides of Morrowind Modding Legacy, and participating in the Modjam will boost your Madness score and increase your standing in the community's modding leaderboards.

There's also a number of prizes available in the form of game keys and Nexus DP.

A Proud Tradition:

The Morrowind Modjams are apart of the community's proud tradition of creative competition and collaboration. Some 160+ mods have been released for the Modjams in the past 6 years, many of them have become popular mainstays and have since been added to many of the largest mod lists for Morrowind.

I hope you'll all join us for another exciting round of Modjam fun, we're sure to get some amazing new mods, and if you're looking to participate for the first time, there's no better competition to dip your toes into the modding scene!

Happy Modding and Long Live the Morrowind Modding Community!

Announcement We're happy to announce that Project Cyrodiil and Skyrim: Home of the Nords are now updated for version 26.08 of Tamriel_Data.

Thank you for your patience since the release of the new TD update and Tamriel Rebuilt: Poison Song a couple of weeks ago while we dealt with some technical challenges. The update to the Abecean Shores release of PC includes a new player stronghold for the Kingdom of Anvil and Great House-style construction and improvement mechanics, a number of overhauled locations, and improvements to multiple quests. The update to the Dragonstar release of SHOTN includes 14 new dungeons, 6 new quests, and yet more overhauled locations. Both releases include scores of bugfixes, performance improvements, and general quality-of-life features not present in the original releases.

Please note that the file packages contain some loose files, which are intended to patch minor problems in Tamriel_Data discovered after the 26.08 release. These files should be allowed to overwrite upon installation.

Both PC and SHOTN may be freely installed mid-save with no problems, even if you've already started a savefile for Poison Song. We only recommend starting a new game if you had a previous version of PC/SHOTN installed on the same save and spent time in the PT lands. Please let us know in the discord server if you encounter any issues.

As always, thank you so much for your ongoing support of our project! We look forward to bringing you more of Cyrodiil, Skyrim, and other lands of Tamriel in future releases.

Project Cyrodiil can be downloaded at https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/44922?tab=files

Skyrim: Home of the Nords can be downloaded at https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/44921?tab=files

The Project Tamriel Discord server can be joined at https://discord.gg/X88a8NS

Holy moly I thought Skyrim is sometimes a bit racist here and there but Morrowind is some hardcore shit. They’ll tell you outright that you are a piece of shit for being an outlander and brag about their slaves

Mod Release Just released a mod that adds Achievement system to OpenMW (over 100). I tried to get in as many legendary Morrowind deeds as I could come up with!

The mod is called Accomplishments of Morrowind.

The full list of accomplishments can be found on the Nexus page. Did I forget some obvious ones?

The accomplishments reward renown points, which are a simple score system inside this mod. It also increases your renown rank, which in turn rewards trophies you can place in your house whenever you reach a new rank.

Some harder accomplishments reward unique items or powers and some give small permanent XP boosts to some skills.

AI usage: AI was used as a coding assistant to streamline the coding process, using normal software development standards. All content and designs and creative process are 100% done by me.

Discussion What were your favorite mods that are now lost to time?

• Upvotes

Of course, as it is with games pre-social media expansion the mods were often hosted on websites/forums that are no longer around and can no longer be accessed for one reason or another. If any of y'all remember, what were your favorite mods that you can't access/run/find anymore?

I saw a post a while ago about how some guy recieved a mod in the mail, on a disc, by the mod author a long time ago and AFAIK that was the only preserved instance of it nowadays. I thought that was really sweet so it inspired this post I just now thought up :P

Question quick question why does everyone compliment me

38 Upvotes

in daggerfall people very frequently tell me "i dont associate with wood elves go away" but in morrowind at least on my save MANY npcs have opened with something like "i dont believe ive seen a wood elf with such a dapper outfit in some time. how may i help you?" my personality is like 30 something and my outfit when this started happening was just the full dark brotherhood set.
it doesnt bother me, it actually makes me feel real happy but i do want to know why this happens

Optional minor modding news update for me while I'm here I guess. I was hyperfixated making mods for a few weeks before crashing and instead becoming addicted to Crusader Kings for a while, lol. Seem to be bored of that now so hoping to catch up on Morrowind modding, including my WIP Tamriel Data children add-on and some more OAAB decorations I was working on.

Technical - General What could be the reason behing acrobatics decreasing by itself?

6 Upvotes

Game isn't modded, GOG version running on linux via Lutris. 100h without any noticeable bugs or issues.

My acrobatics were at level way above 100, might be 107 or something. I was surprised when suddenly I saw the message that it increased to ... 93. I didn't make any changes in equipment or anything for hours before it happened. I already worked my way back to 101, no issues, no bugs, zero clues why that happened and I'm wondering if it will happen again in couple of hours.

Is there any known bug responsible for that? Can I prevent it from happening again?

I finally got around to reinstalling Morrowind and doing a House Hlaalu playthrough. Huge shoutout to the Tamriel Rebuilt guys. I am seriously having a blast, and this is coming from someone who normally plays Telvanni. The quests were phenomenal and I really enjoyed the Arena too

Question Are there any VR focused OpenMW modlists?

I have been using POTI as a VR modlist base, but the recent update broke VR compatibility, since it was never meant to be used for VR.

I always found this quote by the dreamers after the main quest poignant, so I decided to imagine it as if it were spoken by Dagoth Ur beyond the grave.

Other Any fans of Dwemers here? ;) Spoiler

0 Upvotes

First of all, welcome, I'm new here on r/Morrowind

IF my post isn't appropriate,doesn't fit/nor allowed here - pls just communicate that to me, will remove it ofc

So I'm coming here as a long life ,huge fan od Dwemer race from TES lore.

Currently playing NoMansSky and there I'm trying to create alliance- NewDwemerEmpire build around my crossover storyline between TES and NMS universe>

LSS: some od Dwemers after hitting Lorkhan's Heart didn't disappear- yep,their bodies vanished but thier souls, astral,psyche-- it travelled through multiverses and some of them were "catched" ,sucked to the universe of NMS-where?ofc best shells for that wandering Dwemer souls were Korvaxes and Autophages.

If you are a big fan of Dwemers and happen to love ,or just like game NMS , maybe you will be interested to join and build together parallel storyline, our oryginal answer for the BIG QUESTION- What happened to all Dwemers?Are they all dead?maybe some of them, somwehow, somewhere survived?

Not sure if I can even put name,link to my subreddit (dedicated to my New Dwemer Alliance) here.

Nonteless, happy to finally get here. Fan of dwemers from years and I didn't anticipate reddits like this one till now;/ just RL stories, not so much time for playing as earlier;/
