I never did finish Morrowind... was too busy messing around with mods, sidequests, and thievery. I remember using some of the texture upgrades to showcase computers at a little mom 'n pop outfit I worked at back in the day. :mrgreen:

It's highly likely that I no longer have a copy... I'll have to go through the couple of spindles I have left. Oh well... I'd want the GOTY edition anyway. I suppose I'll at least hold out 'till Steam has a sale on it. Maybe I'll finish up New Vegas and Two Worlds by then... 0_o

Graphical update or not, there's always a good reason to play Morrowind, that reason being that it's simply the best TES game to date. With that said that mod compilation does look pretty sweet. I haven't touched Morrowind in at least a year and a half, I'll have to see if I still have it installed. If not the discs are sitting less than 5 feet away from me.

I like the Elder Scroll series. Morrowind 2011 looks very impressive. But a 4GB download is nothing to sneeze at.

That's what high speed intarwebz are for. :mrgreen:

Heck, I've downloaded 50GB into my Steam folder over the last two months... and so has my Dad, since I've gotten him most of the same games... :mrgreen:

Man, talk about rude. I'd be ecstatic to see a mod I made packed up in something like that.

*shrug* Can't please everyone.

Well, there's always Morrowind 2009 :mrgreen:

It's back in action! http://morrowind2011.ultimaaiera.com/

They've got a pretty interesting posting about the legality of it too.

Good to see the files are back online. I'm also interested in OpenMW. Not only would it mean a native Linux client for running TES3, it may also rectify some of the bugs that STILL persist in the Gamebryo engine.
