So OpenMW .33 is now being finalized. All that's left before 1.0 is a handful of features (mostly AI and OpenCS) and a lot of bugs.
https://bugs.openmw.org/projects/openmw/issues?per_page=100&set_filter=1&tracker_id=2 https://bugs.openmw.org/projects/openmw/issues?per_page=100&set_filter=1&tracker_id=2 Do you think OpenMW 1.0 will make 2014? Do you think it will be finished before Morrowind is old enough to register for forums on May 1st 2015?

From their updates, they seem to be going at a good pace. 2014 is too soon, but early 2015 seems about right.

Hard to tell. At their current rate, I suspect they'll be feature complete by 2014, but not ready for 1.0, because of all the bugs they want to iron out.

OpenCS is the big thing that most people tend to ignore since they just want to play the game with mods and enhancements.

So about OpenMW, after version 1.0, what amounts of improvements can be accomplished, short term, mid term, long term, easy, medium, hard?
Or in other words, how much, realistically, can or will OpenMW upgrade Morrowind aside from optimizations?
I'd love to get hyped up about what the future will bring to Morrowind.

What you are looking for is OpenCS. If it's half of what they promised, it will help the modders to spread their wings and soar to heights they haven't done before. The fact than the TR team is on the edge of their seat waiting for what OpenCS can do is an interesting fact.
Also, unrelated, but have some screencap about an anon who claims to have been working on SkyWind. Seems like that shit is going to crash and burn hard.

Thanks for that info, anons.
Do you think the new engine can match and even exceed the "Creation" engine? I've had so many issues with the Creation engine and the Creation Kit, performance in particular.
Doing essentially anything seems really incredible, that's for sure. What already has been achieved with Morrowind to begin with is already amazing graphically.
Is animation one of the other functions one can expect great upgrades for? I noticed the stock animations (and even the improved ones that were bundled with MGSO) looked pretty silly to others.
As for myself I'm a very long term Morrowind fan like the rest of us n'wahs of course, I'm just really hoping that OpenMW will be able to do indeed at least half of what they promise.
In the meantime I've been working on a few town mods as personal mods, but since one of them is the infamous Balmora it'll be great to have far more performance.

Didn't mean to defend MGSO, merely that they had animations in there that were somewhat better but still very limited, since i didn't know the name of the mod I had to mention it.
I suppose best will be just to wait and see then, since it seems it's hard to predict what will happen when it hits 1.0 and OpenCS works completely.
