OpenMW Mod Requests - Check Pins!

[acoustic ibex]

(idk about their lore)

[narrow linden]

I have no recollection of these

Drams?

[acoustic ibex]

Yeah

Maybe not TR, but OAAB

I don't really differentiate them :)

[narrow linden]

On the topic of loot clutter: give every type of gem small/med/large size and flawed/regular/perfect quality

[vast solstice]

maybe that could be an extension of Fresh Loot

[acoustic ibex]

https://tenor.com/view/why-huh-but-why-gif-13199396

[limber snow]

That was like a COBL thing from oblivion right

[narrow linden]

Nerf gem value overall, idk make it feel more special when you find a really good one

My last narsis character had hundreds of sapphires

[wet nimbus]

Good idea for jewelcrafting

And mining 🧐

[robust girder]

@tough sigil 👀

Seems that it’s now possible. I’m content with you pinning to be fair though lol

Sadly we’ve not yet had anyone tackle any request as of yet 😅

[tough sigil]

If I had any power to help you here in the first place it would have been long done

Try @peak heron

[median nacelle]

such as?

my idea behind the mod was the ability to use spears with a shield, which turned into using any two handed weapon with a shield, and then might as well make the reverse work too

the benefit being more damage or more defense

while also not having to split your weapon skill

[vast solstice]

Wattup slowchu, yeah I love it. talking about the dynamic damage system StormAtronach was making for mwse. Things like if 2h damage did extra against one creature but less against another, there would be more reasons to switch between weapons and stances

No complaints about the mod, just more options in combat is cool. Rock-paper-scissors kind of choices

[acoustic ibex]

Dunno if he expanded that mod, but the core idea was not grip, but attack type efficiency

[vast solstice]

I know, i just think it would be cool to take things like grip into account when designing a damage system

If 2h does more slashing for example and an enemy is less resistant to that, quickly change grip/weapon on the fly facing multiple enemies to maximize output

[acoustic ibex]

Initially I wanted to make that mod too, but after short consideration of how you actually can't properly switch between weapon types without heavy skill investments I scrapped the thing

[median nacelle]

oh I see

I just saw GRIP was mentioned, I didnt scroll up further

[acoustic ibex]

While it would probably create preference of places you'd want and don't want to visit, I don't think it would work as "switch weapons to deal with different foes" mod unless we get another mod that tries to even out the weapon skills (which would actually be nice on its own)

[median nacelle]

I was hoping that the perk framework would help with attack type improvements but it doesnt seem like anyone has made any perk packs yet

[acoustic ibex]

Yeah

One idea that I had was to boost the skill up to certain threshold based on highest weapon skill or mean weapon skill or both

Now thinking about it, I'm pretty sure Lua allows you to edit skill bonuses without hardcoding buffs. Maybe that could be a thing 🧐

[median nacelle]

it does

GRIP does it

[wet nimbus]

Requiem for openmw when

[acoustic ibex]

[median nacelle]

(changes weapon type skill to match weapon variant skill) IE, Spear will make Longsword the same level when you use a 1H spear variant

you can also apply magical buffs without showing a tooltip

for like +attack bonus

[wet nimbus]

They definitely see your tooltip haha

Or at least it shows up on the stats menu

[median nacelle]

could have sworn I got it to not show up when messing around with GRIP

[wet nimbus]

Not with NCGD/SE and the lua stat window replacer

[acoustic ibex]

Write this down, guys :)

[wet nimbus]

If there’s anyone I trust to implement requiem for openmw, it’s you

[acoustic ibex]

I have too much stuff going on right now to do it myself

[wet nimbus]

Real

I have so much documentation to catch up on

Tfw the in-game books have better documentation than the git

[somber tinsel]

Which is surprising and a bit annoying but maybe they are just popular for Skyrim since they are the core of the system. There aren't many packs for MSWE, either.

[median nacelle]

I am once again employed so have very little free time

hence me being awake at 2am

[robust girder]

fuck sake this was me last night

and I'm dying now. Wasn't even playing anything was just thinking about playing lying in bed lmao

[median nacelle]

https://giphy.com/gifs/tired-sleep-sleepy-h7DyKGq716JMI

[stiff plaza]

Immersive HUD where elements appear only when needed. https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/20830

[wet nimbus]

It’s in the works

[woven parrot]

Alchemy Filtering like
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/58215?tab=description but for OpenMW

[acoustic ibex]

Isn't it already builtin?

or what's missing?

[woven parrot]

Must check but as I remember it wasn't look like in this mod

[slow hearth]

Wish OpenMW had a cheat menu mod. I use it all the time in OG Morrowind. Great for testing mods or giving yourself quest items you didn't want to part with, after the fact. https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/47143

[median nacelle]

[hollow ore]

Request:
Some mod that makes guards follow you around when you sct suspicious similar to that skyrim mod with the same name, Basically if you draw out your weapons or try to sneak in cities one guard will just keep following you around for a while until you act normal again

[robust girder]

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/56965 and https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/57747

as well as https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/57892

[vast solstice]

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/47910

haha this is brutal, i would love to have it with Second Chances or Continuo

Also this looks really cool, and possible now with weather being dehardcoded, right?
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/47904

[acoustic ibex]

yes

[vast solstice]

nice

[wet nimbus]

Would go hard with your heartbeat mod

[somber tinsel]

Solthas Blight Weather Pack does sth similar.

[vast solstice]

Yeah but there's a lot more to Creeping Blight, I like the blight mechanic but its also the rest of the changes to the weather system that make it much more interesting imo

[barren oasis]

I just made it
https://discord.com/channels/260439894298460160/1473678673117712536

[wet nimbus]

Bruhhh that is crazy work

[wild lodge]

BY NIRN THE SPELLS ARE BACK IN SWORDS

I LITERALLY JUST SEEN THIS ABOUT TO TEST IT OUT

[robust girder]

Pin to remove @tough sigil 🥳

[tough sigil]

Don't!

[tulip elk]

Mod request: Camera noise when idle or in dialogue. Also ease in/ease out for conversations? Similar to God of War Ragnarok or this mod:
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/77185

[vast solstice]

Dynamic Actors has you covered for the dialogue stuff

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/54782

[wet nimbus]

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/39426
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/42026
Working on bringing these mods to OpenMW, are there any other skyrim mods with similar features I could group into these, or requests ?

[hollow herald]

How about an option to have skill books give you a flat amount of skill XP? So at low level you could get several level ups but at higher ones you'll only get some progress towards the next level. That way it won't matter at all when you use the skill book

Also, the bonuses to skill gain were a feature in NCGDMW Ultimate Leveling, you could take a look there: https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/56389

[wet nimbus]

I was thinking about adding an option for that, we do something similar with cooking recipes and I could just copy over the formula. But there’s a diminishing return so they’re more effective at lower skill levels than higher skill levels

Not sure how NCGD/Skill Evolution handle skill books and I don’t use those mods, not particularly interested in them haha

[acoustic ibex]

Xp requirement doesn't scale in vanilla leveling. 100 xp for level 10, 100 xp for level 100 etc

[acoustic ibex]

It explicitly doesn't. Except optionally disabling skill gains from them altogether

[wet nimbus]

Gotcha, yeah I think I saw people request a feature like this in skill evolution but my motives are completely unrelated haha

[wet nimbus]

I have a few events being sent to the player for the “Reading is Good” port, ownlyme will be doing some interop with roguelite and MBSP I believe. Want me to do something with merits of service?

[acoustic ibex]

Got any ideas?

Regarding skill xp boosts, I feel like it will get out of hand really fast with MoS

[wet nimbus]

Could do a like 0.5% skill gain or something similar anytime you’d normally receive a skill in MoS 🧐 but not sure

Guess you could do that with MBSP or skill evolution though, doesn’t just have to be this mod although it has events for it

[acoustic ibex]

I guess it's an option. Will the xp boost be displayed in some kind of UI to keep track of them?

I don't think I'll use it myself, but I'll keep it in mind

[wet nimbus]

Yeah I’ll probably add tooltips to the stat review menu, if anything to track or list the number of books read

Yeah understandable haha it’s not for everyone, it’s mostly for the path of the incarnate modpack

[acoustic ibex]

Centralized UI would be the best option, so you won't need to scroll through all your skills one at a time

[wet nimbus]

That’s true I guess, I could add a book or use that new library mod to track which books you’ve already read for the skill boost

Or maybe something like the quicktrain scroll/note ?

[acoustic ibex]

Bookworm seems like a logical thing to use. Though I don't know how to feel it being a soft requirement purely because of it

[wet nimbus]

Nah wouldn’t be a requirement, I’d likely have several options

[acoustic ibex]

As a loot goblin, I don't really support the additional clutter in my inventory that could randomly just get sold/lost

Immersive? Yes
Convenient? Debatable

[acoustic ibex]

They straight up commissioned it? xd

[wet nimbus]

True haha, I was considering to loop it into the kinda intro stuff that Sun’s Dusk does on initialisation

[wet nimbus]

Something like that haha, more of an offer on my end

I think they might also add MoS which would be cool

[acoustic ibex]

Maybe I should contact them too. In case they have some feature suggestions for my mods they already use 🤷

[hollow herald]

Wait, doesn't it scale linearly? https://wiki.openmw.org/index.php?title=Research:Stats_and_Levelling#Skill_progress

[wet nimbus]

They already have a lot of your mods, feel free to check it out https://www.modlists.net/docs/6poti/Release-Notes

Clayby is the mod curator, he’s in this server and lurks around haha

[acoustic ibex]

You gain the same xp at low and high levels and the requirement stays the same. The only thing changing is how successful you're at said task (higher hit success rate -> faster leveling)

[tulip elk]

Mod request: A sound mod for spell effects that adds small variants so it's not always the exact same sound playing over and over. Maybe just pull ones from Skyrim? I think they have variants.

[wet nimbus]

Half my spell effect sounds are from Skyrim but can’t post for legal reasons lmfao

[tulip elk]

Bummer. I know someone posted a WoW spell sound fx mod.

[robust girder]

Hmmmm… I might try my hand at making these sound effects. But I’d need someone like @wet nimbus to script them into the game with Lua spell casting I imagine

[lyric sage]

You don’t have to do that

You can intercept vanilla sound and play a random spell cast sound

Well of course a little bit of lua involved

But surely not needed to affect whole spell casting

[robust girder]

True. But I quite like the idea of still maintaining each School's unique spell casting sound, but with slight variants

[lyric sage]

Of course, less sound fatigue is always welcome

[wet nimbus]

Sure can do

[robust girder]

Added to the never-ending mod idea to do list...

[tulip elk]

Well, for me, I am actually not a fan of MW's spell sound effects.
They sound similar to 1950s scifi movies SFX and have strange mixes that make them sound tinny without full range EQ like they're on an old AM radio.
This is why I was saying pull from Skyrim's spell SFX or generate one's own.
But that's just me. I'm sure other people love them.

[robust girder]

Can’t pull from later games due to copywrite sadly. Yeah MW uses a lot of sounds from this

The General Series 6000 Sound Effects Library (1992)

#210394599246659585 message

I now here the Dwemer creak sound effects everywhere. Watching the 2005 Doctor Who series currently and the inside of the Tardis sounds like a Dwemer ruin to me now lol

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuWsOa_MTm8

[hollow herald]

Random mod idea/request: Beast Taming
Press E while looking at an animal for a chance to tame it and turn it into a permanent follower (at least until it dies in the next fight). Could be tied to a custom skill that increases your chances of taming animals or lets you tame multiple ones

[acoustic ibex]

Doable

There was something like it in Daggerfall

Or rather there was like 6 linguistic skills for different types of enemies

[lyric sage]

It could be extended to selling these tamed creatures to designated npcs 🧐

Even further - spawning unique creature in random location in a region for extra gold opportunity (bounty for taming)

[wild lodge]

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/16190 👀👀

Equipment you wear often level up just like you do and agin stats

[hardy geyser]

So this is just a thread for any mod ideas?

[robust girder]

More mod requests for OpenMW mods. E.g. "port this mwse or skyrim mod"

[hardy geyser]

Makes sense

Aren't Dunmer supposed to have their own currency like "drams" or something

Anyway, I don't think any of these are possible (yet) in OpenMW but these are some I'd love to see adapted at some point once it is possible
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/52941
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/49799
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/49504
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/47534
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/47672

Basically the entire MM series that hasn't already been ported to OpenMW tbh

[lyric sage]

Animated Pickup is there for the telekinesis

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/54585

[hardy geyser]

True but it would be cool to get the magic effect as well

[lyric sage]

Possible, but EVERY item mesh would have to have a modification adding a bone to it to allow attach the vfx effect

[hardy geyser]

Ah that sounds like a pain in the ass

[lyric sage]

It could be done with python script and blender but having whole item database meshes cloned doesn’t seem too feasible

[hardy geyser]

Yeah that doesn’t seem like it would be worth it

[acoustic ibex]

https://www.nexusmods.com/daggerfallunity/mods/257

I don't see myself using it, but it sill would be cool to have around

Can be unpinned

Already pinned (right at the bottom)

[hardy geyser]

I know that mods similar to this exist (Nerevarine Service Refusal, Go Home!, Sorry We’re Closed, Corprus Service Refusal) but I don’t think I’ve seen one that restricts travel during bad weather.

[reef shard]

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/50165?tab=posts
I've always thought this was such a fun mod — I'd really love to be able to use it with OpenMW.

[median nacelle]

I wonder how it works

invisibile enemies with custom ghostly weapons

[swift sky]

Yeah, it's NPCs 😄

[wet nimbus]

Yeah def doable haha

[median nacelle]

it would be easier if the author was active

they already have ghostly weapon models

but has "ask permission" on the mod

[vast solstice]

You could just link to the mod for the assets

[lyric sage]

Never thought of that but its damn right and legal 🤣

[median nacelle]

oh

I mean it makes sense but its sort of...

idk

on the other hand, they seem like they have abandoned their nexus profile and mods

last active years and years ago

[scenic galleon]

The right way to do is still add original mod as a requirement and say "needs assets from". Or redo the assets

[vast solstice]

yeah its not stealing anything and its ensuring full credit goes to op, if you can't contact the mod author then its the best option next to rebuilding from scratch

[hardy geyser]

I’m pretty sure Umbra Blademaster has something like this

[acoustic ibex]

Umbra's things are creatures and have unique animations 🧐

[hardy geyser]

Ah gotcha

[hardy geyser]

I'm watching a video that says that the Staff of St Veloth from Tamriel Data turns people into skeletons if you're using MWSE. Is that replicable with OpenMW Lua?

[acoustic ibex]

I think it's possible 🤔

[hardy geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/make-it-so-star-trek-jean-luc-picard-patrick-stewart-gif-14685294

Maybe I’ll try to make that idk

[acoustic ibex]

Like, copy actor's inventory, position and rotation, disable him and spawn a skeleton in his place

[scenic galleon]

I can't help but think how it may blow up. May need the "doomed world" message, and/or npc blacklist for anything quest related or with relevant mwscripts attached 🧐

[acoustic ibex]

you already have NPCRecord/CreatureRecord.mwscript and NPCRecord/CreatureRecord.isEssential

everything else is a fair game as far as Morrowind rules go

[median nacelle]

attach a timer to the weapon that activates on kill

[scenic galleon]

Then filter, not a blacklist yup

[median nacelle]

after the NPC falls to the ground. replace it with skeleton and copy inventory over?

[acoustic ibex]

I just have this file that migrates from project to project :)

[median nacelle]

what a grand and intoxicating innocence

[scenic galleon]

Or just allow it and wait for "it broke my game" reports

For some reason I was under an impression it should be a "live" skeleton, disregard what I've said

[vast solstice]

That's what I was picturing, would be funnier. If they could still be interacted with normally but they're just a skeleton now

Actor Switching System

Plz

[frosty ocean]

how's the backpack mod?

[gritty crag]

Sun's Dusk has backpacks now

They are the best we have currently and they don't take a pauldron slot

[vital cargo]

While we're making requests, can we also get a runtime landscape switching system?
Imagine you defeat Dagoth Ur, and then a few weeks later, you notice the Ashlands turned green.

[wet nimbus]

Are you thinking like Seasons of Skyrim ?

[vital cargo]

Exactly

[wet nimbus]

Have you seen the requirements for that mod or have you created the 4 dyndelods yourself ? Or have you just downloaded a modpack with them already in there

[vital cargo]

Modpack

[wet nimbus]

Yeah

That mod has at least 4 or 5 mod requirements that all extend scripts to the engine, excluding the work you have to do outside of it for generating the 4 or 5 grass plugins, landscape changes and the dyndelod itself which is always fun

[vital cargo]

Drat
(Tone: lighthearted, because I know it took the Skyrim community years to get there)

[wet nimbus]

Not including the offsite requirements and the assets/meshes you'd need

I think shaders would probably be easier to work with but would be much more performance heavy

[vital cargo]

Switch nodes for graphic herbalism are definitely a thing, so I assume seasonal flora would be possible (if a lot of busywork to set up properly, especially to support replacers).
There's a snowy ground shader and seasonal weather up on the Nexus.

But landscape? Yeah.

[wet nimbus]

Shader would probably be the best bet, otherwise any mod touching landscape or adding anything to the landscape (thinking caldera priory) would need 4 additional patches for the seasons

Not to mention BCOM, lol

[vast solstice]

yeah lmao having to contend with all of that makes it a hard project to take on. but if some magic like that voxel snow shader that was being shown off here a while ago came into play, who knows

[wet nimbus]

Yeah I mean plenty of skyrim mods can be ported (I'm working on a few rn lol) but that's one which uh, is straight up not realistic and would be a nightmare to implement, since doing anything with seasons of skyrim is already a nightmare for people who do their own and don't have it from a modpack, or would require a billion workarounds and patches for morrowind

[vast solstice]

so you can see its not the first time its been brought up

[civic raven]

Hi, is there any mod that increase the basegame limit of 8 magic effects for player-made spells?

[woven parrot]

Swift Casting for OpenMW like from Morrowind Code Patch (as close as possible)

In newest dev build, the mod speedy magick (openmw) (https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/56747) stop working properly.
Quick Spell Casting (https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/52130) looks like still working but some users report problem with mod and in this mod allows to cast spell with hide/ready weapon animations when in MCP it's casting instant (with weapon in hand). Speedy magick (openmw) had much faster spell casting because weapon was hide nearly instant and there was only unsheathe weapon animation.

The best would be exactly like Swift Casting from MCP - a instant spell casting.

Settings options
swift casting with Ready magic button
swift casting with Hotkey
visible weapon in hand when swift casting (like in MCP, if OpenMW wersion would allow to cast with weapon ready)

[hardy geyser]

Is there a chargen randomizer for OpenMW? Is that even possible?

[wet nimbus]

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/57877

Spawning in the clockwork city 👍

[hardy geyser]

This lets you randomize your stats?

[wet nimbus]

But as far as race/stat/equipment randomizer, not yet

[hardy geyser]

And race and whatnot

[hardy geyser]

Ah damn

Is it not possible yet or has it just not been made yet

[wet nimbus]

Although I guess roguelite kinda lets you do that

Just hasn’t been made, the mod I linked has an API to do anything chargen though so someone could if they wanted to

Think he’ll be working on expanding it once we finish the crafting update

[hardy geyser]

I’m excited for that one

[vast solstice]

there is now haha https://discord.com/channels/260439894298460160/1482552726293450935

mostly anyway

[hardy geyser]

I saw that haha

[lyric sage]

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/44615

Customize/randomize your starting attributes, skills, spells, items, companion, faction, and location on Vvardenfell, Solstheim, Mainland Morrowind (TR), Skyrim (SHOTN), or Cyrodiil (PC).

[hardy geyser]

Oh hell yeah

[lyric sage]

Highly recommend that one

[somber tinsel]

Mod was last updated in 2017... a bit afraid of using such an old chargen mod that was also based on outdated TR and SHOTN versions 😅

[lyric sage]

I can tell only one thing I had problems with it is one of the random spawns in Vvardenfell which spawns you high in the air. Other than that it works flawlessly

[somber tinsel]

Damn, they added a Tarhiel start!

[lyric sage]

It's possible that it's incompatibility with my mod list, I haven't checked the bare mod

[lyric sage]

You pointed that out right, I was actually using the updated version
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/54646

[lyric sage]

Use the updated version please ^^

[wet nimbus]

A mod that adds more bushes to the game to make https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/58424 more useful

[robust girder]

Hiding in crates and Urns like metal gear solids cardboard box

[lyric sage]

S3ctor did it with his "I am basket" mod

Kind of : p

[vast solstice]

apply vfx of a nearby static container whenever the chameleon affect is activated. it probably wouldn't be the most complicated trick, comparatively. but idk

[soft steppe]

A little texture overlay on weapons, armour, clothing, and shields showing wear and tear or dirtiness would definitely add to immersion

[acoustic ibex]

true, but not possible yet

[robust girder]

For the same reason that joy or painting isn’t, right?

[lyric sage]

It technically is possible but is not the feasible way, since textures can be provided with these edits and swapped I bet but it’s unreasonable amount of work

[acoustic ibex]

yeah, I think

[wet nimbus]

The most you can do is put a VFX on the player but since it should go on armor and whatnot yeah just not possible

[somber tinsel]

Even many modern games don't have this btw.

[wet nimbus]

There are a bunch of mods for Skyrim with it

Water/wet and blood and dirt vfx on clothing and weapons

[hardy geyser]

Wait so is Elemental Effects possible in OpenMW Lua?

[wet nimbus]

What do you mean ?

[hardy geyser]

This mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/49799

[wet nimbus]

Definitely not

[hardy geyser]

FUCK

One day

[scenic galleon]

What do you mean?
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/57915

[wet nimbus]

Don’t know if/when there will ever be an API for decals

[hardy geyser]

Window to Aetherius is another one I hope will be possible soonish lmao

[scenic galleon]

Ah, no. Disregard

mixed up the two

[hardy geyser]

Yee different mod

[wet nimbus]

All good haha

But ownlyme would be the one to make mods with decals

[scenic galleon]

lol

[hardy geyser]

You guys seem to push the boundaries of what’s possible with Lua lmao

Like how you kinda sorta de-hardcoded magic

[wet nimbus]

Yeah and this one just isn’t possible like at all

[hardy geyser]

Tragic

Sucks that Window to Aetherius isn’t possible yet either because it would pair so well with Timehud and holidays and birthdays

I stopped using mods that replaced the sky once I found out the vanilla one has some of the actual birth sign constellations lol

[vast solstice]

The moons change, why not the sky?

[balmy crater]

Well, vfx is not my forte, but even though you can't apply a texture directly to the player, like that mod seems to be doing, you can, i think, add a vfx model (mesh) to the player (animation.addVfx )and change the texture property so it displays the proper texture.
https://openmw.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference/lua-scripting/openmw_animation.html
But maybe i'm wrong....

[hardy geyser]

Idk enough about the game tbh

[vast solstice]

Same, I only realised the night sky revolves recently when messing with ownlyme's timescale mod. I can imagine why it wouldn't be feasible though. I think telling the texture paths to change at certain times of year is more complicated than it sounds, but m not sure

As far as I know the moons just change sequentially but I don't know about doing that for the sky all year 🤔 maybe something with texture atlases...

[somber tinsel]

https://tenor.com/view/contemplating-thinking-gif-17339853886032698653

[vast solstice]

But what controls the mind?

[hardy geyser]

Idk I remember bringing it up before and being told it's not possible

[vast solstice]

Need to consult the sky gurus. there's been a lot of work put in to TES skies over the series. It's interesting how it's changed for each game. Iirc the vanilla night sky in vanilla does a 4 day loop of the main constellations but I have no idea how it works, especially with OpenMW

[acoustic ibex]

You can probably investigate it with Skies IV as it's the only sky mesh replacer out there afaik 🤔

heh)

[vast solstice]

Didn't realize that was the same modder that did WtA. Might actually be the sky guru 🤔

[cyan veldt]

Is there a mod that allows your armor rating to negate a certain portion of spell damage?

[acoustic ibex]

No, I don't think so

[stiff plaza]

2026 and MW still has the worst flame of game history.

[frigid cave]

i know this is months old but seen this? https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/55455

As for my idea: Alphabetized skills in the character menu

[cinder storm]

oh my god.

thank you so much.

[robust girder]

I’ll see if I can do that for you

[frigid cave]

sweet. thx

[cinder storm]

Possible to do a custom Intervention spell, like this? https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/48199

(I want to make my own Daedric Intervention travel network)

[vast solstice]

check this one out https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/58108

[cinder storm]

I'm not entirely sure; it seems like it's still only for Divine/Almsivi Intervention?

I might be able to do what I want with janky mwscript though now that I think of it -- you equip an amulet, and then there's a menu that pops up about where you want to go and then it takes you there

(basically, I want to add a Vile shrine intervention network for Wishmaster 2.0)

[vast solstice]

im pretty sure its a custom spell, seperate from the vanilla ones, it think the engine still needs some dehardcoding but this is just a good example of how to do it currently with lua, making custom locations would be relatively small step but it would require some lua knowledge 🤷

[vast solstice]

sounds awesome

[cinder storm]

I'll look into it still though; it's a more elegant solution than my mwscript jank and might be a nice first luamancy project. Thanks!

[vast solstice]

yeah its very nicely done, but whatever gets the job done, right? 😅 if it just works ship it

im still getting my head around scripting but lua seems like a nice way to do things. its just very .. clean, or something, y'know?

[cinder storm]

yeah, there's a lot you can do with lua in a much cleaner way than with mwscript. It's just another thing to learn 😢

I do intend to learn it eventually (maybe soon)

[acoustic ibex]

I think it's possible to make it (almost?) completely in Lua

you just need to somehow preregister the locations to where you want to teleport (I think it would be both exact cell and position inside the cell) and the rest is just attaching correct heuristic algorithm to correct spell detection

Vanilla intervention spells heuristic is not a nearest first, but some kind of spiral by cell where each potential tp location is the center of its respective cell. I think it even was visualized somewhere on the OpenMW website, since it got changed in one of the latest releases for vanilla parity

Done by me! 😄 Pin can be removed

Looks like this will be sorted by Hyacint's Make A Profit WIP. Pin can be removed

Duplicate pin requesting the same mod, can be removed whilst keeping the other pin for the same mod to be ported

At least from my perspective, Sneak Is Good Now covers this. Pin can be removed.

@tough sigil Some pins can be removed if you could oblige 🙂

[stiff plaza]

Yeah, that's not really XP mod, just a level screen mod. I'm using this that does somewhat same: https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/55264

[frigid cave]

yeah it's not perfect but it's good enough for me. At least i can continually level while just focusing on a few skills if i want.

[stiff plaza]

It does remove some power gaming which is good. But best thing about XP mods, are that they make leveling about questing, discovery and learning, rather than slash slash slash.

[robust girder]

Done!

It's an option of Player Stats Counters. I'll upload the current WIP file later today

[rancid kraken]

Hello, just dropping this idea...

I was thinking about a mod that adds a meaningful economic challenge to the player's progression, specifically making guild membership feel like a real commitment rather than a free power-up.
We already have the "Pay Taxes in Morrowind" mod, but it feels unimmersive because the taxes aren't tied to anything meaningful, they just... exist.

Core Concept:
Make guild membership have actual recurring costs. Historically, guilds required dues from their members to fund operations, training, equipment, hall maintenance, and political influence. In Morrowind, this would translate beautifully into gameplay.

How it could work:
Upon joining any guild (Fighters, Mages, Thieves, Temple, etc.), you become responsible for periodic membership dues.
Dues could be due every 10 in-game days.
The amount might scale with your rank in the guild — the higher you climb, the more you're expected to contribute.

Additional features could be that different guilds have different fee structures and consequences for non-payment:
Fighters Guild: Higher fees, but they might send "collectors" (strong NPCs) if you're overdue.
Mages Guild: Moderate fees, but failure to pay could temporarily revoke access to guild services, like teleportation.
Temple: no more shrine blessings.

This would make joining a guild feel like a serious economic decision instead of the no-brainer it currently is.

Would love to hear your thoughts!

[robust girder]

I really like this idea actually. If no one else does it, I might give it a pop

[acoustic ibex]

Sounds good in theory, but on practice without any meaningful payout it would just discourage you from joining any factions altogether

Especially when faction quests don't really pay you in the first place

[somber tinsel]

Yeah, this. It's not so easy to balance and with the way quests are done, it could quickly become "optimal" not to join any guild at all which would be very boring.

It's also counter-intuitive because the player is encouraged to join some factions even via in-game dialogue.

[acoustic ibex]

And besides, climbing the career ladder usually comes with increase in paycheck, not in membership taxes

[robust girder]

I only join roleplay friendly guilds for each playthrough. Never more than two or three at most.

[somber tinsel]

yeah

same

2 or 3

[acoustic ibex]

same

[somber tinsel]

I think that 4 was the most I did

sometimes it's just 1

[robust girder]

Payoff is all the benefits being a member of a guild gets you -- employment, status, bed, storage space, transport, bffs

[acoustic ibex]

but even then I don't always finish them if they feel not rewarding enough (in quests or actual rewards)

[acoustic ibex]

Not much difference for MG intern and archmagister, tho

[somber tinsel]

this would quickly pale in comparison with the taxes if they were based on guild membership only

[robust girder]

cough Morrowind Quests Redux cough 😉

[acoustic ibex]

Those are one time rewards, while you have continuous taxes

[rancid kraken]

I simply used this concept because often historically higher ranked members of the guild were expected to pay more.

[robust girder]

Not like money is in any short supply in MW, and it explains why certain guild members stop paying haha

[acoustic ibex]

And if the 10 day general tax is annoying, having multiple of them would be even more taxing

[vast solstice]

sounds pretty realistic

[robust girder]

I'd say a monthly due

[somber tinsel]

btw I encourage everyone to read the mod description of Pay Taxes mod. The mod author described quite well various problems with determining tax levels in a mod and why he ended up doing it the way he did

[robust girder]

I've never installed it because

[vast solstice]

quickloot integration might solve that

[robust girder]

[somber tinsel]

one of the most important mods for experienced Morrowind players in my opinion

[robust girder]

I simply install a butt ton of economy hardening mods

[somber tinsel]

Vanilla Morrowind desperately lacks money sinks

it's not even funny

[robust girder]

can't pay taxes if you ain't got shit

[vast solstice]

the thing that the idea is really missing is a strong reason to join, higher benefits and no freebies for non members

maybe occaisional strong-arming, press gangs

guild owned taverns

[robust girder]

Yvan eht nioj

[vast solstice]

gooble gabble gooble gabble 👏

[robust girder]

Lt. Jones shouting "HEY YOU JOIN THE FIGHTERS GUILD" outside his window you keep up the superliminal messaging

[vast solstice]

come and find you when your camping and beat you up sometimes

[somber tinsel]

There are already various incentives to join the factions. It's definitely optimal to join some at least as you get access to better and cheaper services and enable a lot of content. What Vanilla lacks, though, are diegetic ways of putting the player down if they get rich and superficially strong with no reputation and faction support to back this up.

[vast solstice]

precisely

[somber tinsel]

In such a hostile environment, advancing too fast would have consequences.

[acoustic ibex]

My final point is: it won't make sense for you when ranking up to be greeted only with increased taxes without anything meaningful in return. It would encourage minmaxing (by not ranking up as long as possible) or even completely ignoring faction quests

The concept either needs to be expanded to accommodate for rewards for ranking up or be used with mods that already do said rewards

[somber tinsel]

you would need to hide your wealth, manipulate the people and/or carefully maneuver the social groups in order to avoid the backlash

basically, some new guy with a shiny glass cuirass or spending a lot of coin would attract a lot of attention

unwanted attention

[acoustic ibex]

While Pay Taxes doesn't give you much in return too, you have less means to abuse the system and it's not tied to any specific content either. It's just there, with you for a ride

[somber tinsel]

whether it's Camonna Tong putting some n'wah down, Thieves Guild asking for their due because of competition or Mages Guild worried about their monopoly, corrupt guards searching for "contraband" or angry traders, somebody would probably pay the player a visit

maybe more than one

[vast solstice]

the idea with a guild irl is that you get a lot out of being a member while not being a member leaves you vulnerable. the highest levels would be donating a lot but getting everything they need for basically free. lower members dont pay as much but dont earn as much from good jobs

[acoustic ibex]

At the end of the day, taxes have to go somewhere

[somber tinsel]

it's simple but it works. I'm sure that it could be much better. The thing is, while you could be tracking player reputation, faction advancements, money spent on trading etc., in the end you would most likely end up with similar results as the simple system the mod uses.

[acoustic ibex]

Preferably, not to oligarchs, because it would incentivise tax evasion by any means necessary

[vast solstice]

then you invest in a luxury battlespire

[somber tinsel]

anyway, I think that changing the idea from a faction-based tax system to diegetic ways of putting the player who thinks that they cracked the system in their place has merit

I definitely think there can be more corruption and consequences for things like stealing high value stuff and displaying wealth overtly with no social standing to back it up

Morrowind plays around with some ideas like NPC reactions to clothes, Reputation affecting disposition, stolen goods being confiscated by guards etc. It can be expanded in cool ways, I think.

[acoustic ibex]

True

[somber tinsel]

BTW funny thing is, I have notes about potential (unrefined) ideas for stuff designed with high level/rich players in mind. I haven't looked at them in half a year, lol. I will post them and who knows, maybe somebody will be inspired. I might end up doing some of them myself after some refining.

• The player is contacted by an unknown figure from the Thieves Guild, Imperial Legion, one of the Great Houses or Camonna Tong (depending on circumstances) who claims to have compromising information that can get the player into trouble and/or tarnish their reputation. They make some demands for the player to provide X gold and maybe X of some rare items or resources as payment in a dead drop. If the player doesn't comply, the player gets another message and bad things start happening. Things like service refusal from many traders, crime bounty, high personality debuff, loss of reputation points, faction expulsion etc. Not everything needs to happen at the same time. Whatever fits the circumstances. Complying gives the player some respite but there is a chance that another demand will be made in the future. It's possible to get to the bottom of this and deal with the problem permanently as well but it may involve expenses as well, e.g. payment for information gathering or bribes.

• A variant of this situation includes a high profile case against the player with high legal fees. High Mercantile could help with negotiations. High Speechcraft could help with the case but the player is not a lawyer so not employing one would give worse results no matter what.

• High level donations/offerings which provide long-lasting (but still temporary) buffs. The buffs wouldn't be available if the player has a bounty. The variants would exist for both the Temple and the Imperial Cult but only 1 could be active at the same time. The effects would be much stronger than in case of standard blessings. The price gets higher each time the player uses the buff.

• The ability to participate in auctions for unique and rare items. Some could be useful in terms of pure gameplay while other ones would be eye candy only but unique. Rich player would bid against other influential people. Prices would escalate quickly.

• Costly permanent Daedra summoning rituals. They last until they die and require variable amount of resources (depending on Daedra type) to summon. Caps in place to prevent silliness. Each summoning ritual gets more expensive than the last one.

• One of the player's artifacts gets depowered and a thematic sacrifice (ideally also a short quest) is required to power up the artifact again. Artifacts are even known to disappear and change owners in the lore often so the proposal is more lenient than that. Powered up artifact could actually provide a temporary bonus that makes it a bit stronger than usual but with a small self-damaging effect for some spice.

• Somebody steals money and/or expensive items in the player's possession and the player must use the help of the guards and/or one of the factions to get the stuff back. Tracking down the culprits is not easy and it gets harder/costlier with time. It would be cool if the items were actually moved to one of the smuggler's dens or eventually appeared in some shady merchant stock.

[acoustic ibex]

TODO list:

• buy a ship
• buy a castle

[brisk juniper]

I tried the boat mod...it was cool but I am not powerful enough to steer those things properly lol it is maybe too jank

maybe a skill issue

[acoustic ibex]

I didn't even got to that point yet. Those damn taxes and poor traders...

[hardy geyser]

Only Morrowind modders would actively make the game more hostile

[brisk juniper]

i just did some testing

[acoustic ibex]

I don't think even Skyrim modders are pushing it this much

[brisk juniper]

mw modders are hardcore

[hardy geyser]

Ikr lmao

[brisk juniper]

the OG immersion enthusiasts

[hardy geyser]

I think economy rebalance mods and survival mods are pretty common in Bethesda games but Morrowind modders take it to the next level

[somber tinsel]

Some modlists try to make Skyrim a soulslike 😁

[acoustic ibex]

Tax mod is certainly a milestone

[ancient panther]

I have this mod for Telvanni characters where as Archmagister they'll never be fined by Telvanni guards or expelled for crimes. Now I wonder if I can immersively avoid paying taxes as a Telvanni lord with both mods installed

[somber tinsel]

The tax mod converts tax to bounty (with sth on top). The rest is handled by the game. You can pay the guards, pay the TG etc. If the mod you are speaking of adds another option for dealing with bounties, it may work.

[ancient panther]

I havent tested it at all. I assume it's an alternate greet from them that clears your bounty immediately

[somber tinsel]

You can already evade some of the taxes as the TG member if you decide to remove price on your head via TG 😉

[somber tinsel]

If that's the case, it would work as the bounty would be cleared until the next tax cycle.

[ancient panther]

Thats how I imagine it will work

[somber tinsel]

What's the mod btw?

[ancient panther]

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/58227?tab=description In the description

On another note. I think Wayfarer's Atlas (or even another mod like it) should have an optional feature someday where the only maps you have access to are the ones physically in your inventory. So any guides for cities/regions that you find or buy can be accessed directly through the map menu, with their pictures displayed over a default generic paper background (since I think the images themselves are probably transparent tga files)
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/58051?tab=description

[dusty kelp]

Unsure if possible, but a mod that 'cleans up' quest NPCs would be great.
From my experience it seems like the following occurs and is particularly noticeable in 'the wild':

• Meet NPC
• They give quest
• Complete quest
• Return to NPC
• NPC stays there forever

It's a bit jarring when you return 3 weeks later and the same NPC is just standing there still

[hollow ore]

Add an option to donate a lot of money to the temple and imperial cult for reputation points

TR related: Allow swapping/ buying gold/silver bars from banks

Adding a private auction that happens every X days where random enchanted gear is sold, Only unlocked on some set conditions like reputation or some faction leadership roles

[cinder storm]

this could be easily done with MWscript. Wouldn't be particularly fancy though. Could do it through dialogue or shrine scripts.

Do you want me to make you a MWscripted donation mod, or would you rather wait for someone to do it with lua?

[gusty olive]

Ik this is probably absolute batshit, but what might it take to port the Morrowind side of this mod to OpenMW? The mod author said in the description it wouldn't be possible, but didn't say why & the last update was in 2023 so I wonder if things have changed. Genuinely this is the one mod that has me on the fence about using OpenMW. I have some experience with Lua and Python which are both used here, and if I knew anything about TES modding I'd try to port it myself https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/52683

[wise pier]

sorry for blatant self-promotion, but here's a mod that does what you describe. The downside: it does it only for 1 NPC and a guar. But it adds a completely fleshed out home for him, a new NPC (his wife), additional dialogue, reward, and all possible fail-safes

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/56097

[dusty kelp]

Don’t apologise! This looks amazing - thanks so much for sharing I’ll give it try 😁

[wise pier]

if y`all have ideas for another mod or two of this format (adding homes to quest NPCs that don't have them), I'm open to suggestions 🏡

[split lodge]

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/51034 it'd be sick if someone recreated the weapon parry feature from this (where the player and NPCs have a chance to deflect attacks with their weapon based on their block skill, with custom sound and visual effects)

I strongly prefer it over active parrying, since it fits in perfectly with morrowinds combat rng out of the gate and makes it so the block skill is useful even when you're not wielding a shield

did https://discordapp.com/channels/260439894298460160/1482416741077356692 add it as a feature since I last checked? 👀

[scenic galleon]

Well, no. I didn't. Looks like a fun modathon mod, and works around limitations of morrowind, but no - I'd rather play the game than watch it play itself

No shade, the idea is cool

just something I'm profoundly not interested in

[wild lodge]

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43894 this mod basically is the legendary skill/reset mechanic from Skyrim, when a skill reaches 100 you speak to this npc to reset the skill to 15 and you get a item that you can equip that boosts that skill 15-25 points, this is cool but idk id like this as a mechanic, like when you get to 100 on a skill and you open the stats window you get an option to legendary your skill

[vast solstice]

is that different than using a skill uncapper?

[wild lodge]

I’m not sure I haven’t used an uncapper and it already takes me eons to 100 a skill

[scenic galleon]

I mean. If you're playing a reasonable amount of time per day, and maybe use some leveling slowdown mods - 100 takes a while

Getting a shiny at 100 may be fun though

[wild lodge]

Can’t I use the uncapper strictly for my attributes and not skills

One and not the other or are they tandem

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/58457

[scenic galleon]

Iirc both Ownlyme's uncapper and SE/NCG can have caps configured per skill/attribute

so you can uncap some and not the others

[wild lodge]

Ok

[vast solstice]

yeah its highly customisable

[wise pier]

Mod idea: loading screens that show gridmaps of the provinces. Watching on maps is very satisfying - perfect thing to do while waiting the load screen 🗺️

[robust girder]

Oooooh I love this idea!

[scenic galleon]

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/51667 not gridmaps

but includes hand drawn maps

And in the same style for TR:

[wise pier]

Wonderful, thank you much

[scenic galleon]

If you want just maps - remove everything else. But concept art etc on others is alos great

[vast solstice]

it would be cool to see the chronomancy from this ported over now that its plausible, at least enough to make the mod playable on openMW, it looks sick

but its really fun IMHO

https://noita.fandom.com/wiki/Spells

[acoustic ibex]

It would've been fun if the runs didn't take ages to complete

[vast solstice]

so the idea being essentially to cast a series of modifiers and then activate your custom spell in action?

[acoustic ibex]

At the core - yes

[median nacelle]

yeah. it gets crazy in Noita because certain spells can act as containers themselves

[acoustic ibex]

The spell effects may also be chained together

[median nacelle]

so you can shoot a fireball that has 8 cast fireball with trigger inside it, which all have 8 cast fireball with trigger

etc etc

[vast solstice]

jeez

[acoustic ibex]

Eggs with nukes

[median nacelle]

im barely scratching the surface as well

you can have trigger states, if x then cast y, etc

its like coding in spells

[vast solstice]

yeah that sounds cursed indeed. probably would be crazy to come anywhere close to it in MW

[median nacelle]

well multicast could easily be a custom spell effect so thats one tiny aspect right there

but yeah, it would be an absolute nightmare of an undertaking and perhaps this was better suited for the 'Dumb mod ideas' thread

[vast solstice]

there's a lot of wild ideas going around now that magic is open

[median nacelle]

the golden era is soon approaching

as far as I can tell, almost everything short of super complicated spell effects and physics effects from Noita are technically viable with the RC changes and the new spell framework/lua physics mod.

trigger spells seem viable as well

[median nacelle]

multicast works, spreadshot should technically work, trigger onhit should work, faster/slower projectile should work, slowing/freezing enemies would be easy (onhit -> reduce speed/set speed to 0 for x seconds)

homing might be tricky

spiral and boomerang like not so much

[somber tinsel]

The way things are looking now, in a few months we will have tons of magic-related mods with a lot of overlap as well. Probably very little overall coherence if multiple mods are used... and some incompatibilities. We may end up with modlists that deal with magic stuff alone.

[median nacelle]

piercing could be interesting...

I really like the idea of ​​starting the game as a penniless ex-prisoner who has to fend for himself for a few days because nobody will help him and he has no money for any equipment.

It's easy to change the cost of items to make them harder to obtain, but to make something like that work, you'd need some crude weapons and armor to craft while fighting to get more resources.

Bushcraft skill from Ashfall did it nice

Humbly putting in a request for a full refresh of merchant inventories mod if it's doable (like in the Buying Game for MWSE) Preferably to be compatible with Make a Profit ^^

the leveled list stuff is still tricky, maybe i can add that in 0.52 if a few merge requests go through

[nova echo]

I thought it only handled goods that were already restocking because of this

But I'll give it a try, maybe I just misunderstood the description. I meant the entire inventory, not just the items that already have a value of -1

[hidden cape]

oh i see, that only kinda applies to ingredients but i can take a look if i can add that

and soulgems

[nova echo]

That would be absolutely freaking amazing if possible. Basically I'm looking for a Skyrim-like restock system

I imagine that doesn't appeal to a lot of people because you can accidentally sell your quest items xD

But I also have Wares, and it would be nice if stuff got repopulated organically

Daggerfall inspired enchant system, where the creature type can influence the effects (fire atronach gives better fire based enchant and weaker frost based enchant) but could also add random effects related to their nature, and even curses for dremoras, dark seducers and als.
Maybe changing the way enchant works for constant effect and charges, to be more dependent on player's enchant level or soul's size.

this seems interesting https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/58980?tab=description

[vast solstice]

Yeah! Lmao Hrothgar pulling mods from my dreams

[wise pier]

sadly, it requires a new game

[vast solstice]

Unless you already had the Sitting mod installed. Its something to do with adding idles to the pc, I'm sure there's a better way but animation is so mysterious

what would it take to make this work with openmw? I think it would be cool with engarde

[random tusk]

I dont know if it would be even possible but a mod that will outline items on the 'floor' so its easier to see things like rings etc - basically 'alt' key in PoE/Diablo. I'm having difficulty picking up item when they are grey on grey or bone on bone color. My vague understanding is that it would have to be a shader that is run on key press which I dont know if its even possible in OpenMW

[scenic galleon]

Conditional shaders are very much possible, though I don't know how to make a shader that would to what you describe

[wet nimbus]

A simpler solution would just be to apply vfx to every item in the game

[scenic galleon]

simpler

[wet nimbus]

If only someone had a list of all the items in the game

This one needs to be ported:

There's this mod I'd really like to see fully functional ; currently, with OpenMW, the clock hands don't rotate

And I'm afraid the script is way beyond my skill level ^^

[vast solstice]

i thought that was an engine issue 🧐

lovely little mod

[light axle]

And this one, a portable compass, what a cool feature :

I know Manual Compass exist (https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/50256) but we can't hold the compass ^^'

[light axle]

I believe so too, but since then, have there been any changes to the OpenMW engine that would correct this problem?

[vast solstice]

im not sure actually, just looking at it i thought it was a texture mapping thing but it might something else. its all in mwscript in the .esp so it might be worth looking into

[vast solstice]

this looks cool

i saw it long ago and forgot all about it

[light axle]

I like having elements like the compass, map, and watch as in-game objects, it adds to the ✨ immersion✨

[vast solstice]

yeah, Far Cry 2 was my favourite game map. one you can hold up as you walk around

[light axle]

This was great, I loved this game, plenty of cool ideas (except the Malaria feature )

[vast solstice]

even then, it was just super progressive in game design. taking risks to make an engaging experience

not all hits but damn it they tried

only went downhill after that

imo

i had fun with couch co-op in 4

riding elephants around with rocket launchers

[light axle]

Had good time playing 3 & 4... with mods. The first 2 were good as is.

[solemn juniper]

A mod that allows drivable caravans or mounts for companions, cause it sucks to just be the one who can ride mounts while your companions struggle catching up😭🙏🏻 also a trader caravan is very cool

[light axle]

Having a cart to transport loot, like in Daggerfall, would be awesome.

[solemn juniper]

Indeed my friend

And anyways, apart from ReAnim, any combat mods that gives the Combat anims be atleast smoother? I can use ReAnim but that's my phone draw the line cause for some reason it causes FPS drops on my phone😭

I use the combination of this:

And

(Bow animations looks weird tho but fights are peak)

This fine for me but maybe there's also good ones out there

[solemn juniper]

(I found out how to fix the bow bugs, just use Left Bow Animation mod + Bow and Quiver fix patch)

[wise pier]

Nice, I'd love to have a pocket watch on OpenMW. PTR people made a clock tower with a workable clock that moves in real time and respects the time scale gamesetting. All in MWscript. Maybe it could be used as a base?
