I know that most of you guys are done with Morrowind now, since Oblivion is released and all, but hey, Maybe Morrowind have this one last trick to offer:

Calling this a mod would be an understatement. Basically, someone wrote a new engine to run Morrowind, enabling the video card doing most of the job, and we have the view distance in Morrowind going to almost infinite (as in Oblivion), with almost no fps loss. You can get more detailed information from the thread at the official TES forum.

The following links were quoted from the official Elder Scrolls Forum:

These pics were not taken in-game, they were rendered with an external 3D modelling program to approximate what this mod would look like. The last 3 pics show the world of Tamriel Rebuilt.

OMG, I hate you Yian. I had put this game behind me, I was over it, done, finished. Now look what you have done. I have the cd's in my hand and I'm installing it. I blame you entirely!

DAMMIT! And I just passed up the morrowind game of the year edition for pc for a measly $10 down at the shops today! Dammit! I knew I should have bought it. I only have the original game without the expansions. I want everything, I long abandoned oblivion after many mods and tinkering, it just doesn't do it for me.

What other mods should I try while I'm at it?

Morrowind Comes Alive. It partially "de-wax-ifies" the world.

Vivec Expansion 2.0 also makes Vivec so much fucking awesomer. If you get one mod, make it that one.

I'll look and see what my folders contain, I had quite a few mods I considered awesome.

I always used these much better looking heads and faces whenever I played morrowind:

Since the conclusion of our Morrowind thread, there has been a lot more new mods came out. I will try to make a list soon. :)

Cool. Thanks. I tried to download some earlier, but I got stuck in Fileplanet territory. I'll try again tomorrow when I have some time.

You suck. Morrowind sucks.

What?

No!

They are not.

Yes, I'm telling you these aren't Morrowind CDs in my hands.

...

I hate you.

I'm not so keen on this mod, looks a bit wierd without the trees and the distant water doesn't use the leet shader. I'm gonna continue playing Morrowind though, it just inspires so much emotion. The music, the atmosphere. Oblivion is dull in comparison.

"Why walk when you can ride?". Aah yes, I'm home again.
