Skywind Is Morrowind Remade Using Skyrim’s Engine

Bethesda’s Elder Scrolls’ lineup of games have been pretty fun and somewhat expansive, and the latest title, Skyrim, has been receiving a lot of attention due to its gameplay, not to mention the fact that there has been a ton of mods that transforms the game into something else entirely. While we’ve seen mods try to enhance the game, here’s a mod that seems to focus more on an older Elder Scrolls’ title, Morrowind.

Basically what has happened is that a group of fans have decided to give the game a visual makeover using Skyrim’s engine. Given that the game saw a release back in 2002, it is safe to say that it could definitely use a visual overhaul. At the moment the project is in the works and is planned for a release next year. It is a pretty extensive makeover as there will be new voice-acting and music introduced to the project and is dubbed Skywind, a combination of Morrowind and Skyrim.

Based on what we can see in the video above, it looks pretty epic and if you’ve enjoyed Morrowind and wouldn’t mind seeing it in more modern graphics, this is definitely a project worth keeping an eye on! So, who else is impressed by their efforts so far?

    Elder Scrolls Keening Dagger Replica: Quick, Hide the Heart of Lorkhan Replica

    Confession bear time: I’ve never played any Elder Scrolls game, mostly because I don’t enjoy open world games. Which means I don’t know how unusual the weapons in the series can get. Maybe there’s one made from balloons or whatever balloons are called in the games. But I like the design of the Keening dagger. And by that I mean I like this replica.

    This replica was made by Bill Doran, who is not a replica Dwemer but a real artisan who is good at making props and costumes. Elder Scrolls fans know that the Keening first appeared in Morrowind, but Doran used its appearance in Skyrim as his guide. The hilt is made of plastic resin with bronze powder, while the crystalline blade – I call it the Heisenberg – was made from “Tap Plastic’s Clear-Lite resin with some green and blue transparent tint added.”

    Doran said he the replica will be auctioned off at a Child’s Play event today, although I think that’s exactly what an evil High Priest would say if he’s messing with… with evil magics and stuff. I’ve run out of Elder Scrolls references. Go on, fast travel to Doran’s blog for more pictures and details on the process.
