How are we planning on doing Hammerfell?

I was just wondering what was decided on Hammerfell. Will we do it in the same world-area as Cyrodil, or will somehow be it's own world area?

It has been confirmed that, if done on the same scale, Hammerfell can (and in my opinion should) be done in the Tamriel worldspace. If it is done on a seperate worldspace the player will have to pass through gates to get into Hammerfell and can't go anyway except on the road.

It actually has been confirmed that if Hammerfell is done in the same worlspace we will have to modify Beth's work (aka the map) rendering the mod incompatible with some landmass and map mods. Also I *think* there's a way of going through worldspaces w\o the need of a special teleport but I am unsure.

Yes, ofcourse. Conflicting with landmass mods has never been our concern, and any confliction with map mods can easily be dealt with by making this clear and also having a TR version of any prominent map mods (I know eyeball has a colored version).

That's what I thought. We wouldn't have to worry about scale if it was a seperate world space.

I think you have no idea what the objections to a larger scale were. At the time, we weren't sure the same worldspace was even possible, and one of my objections involves it being a seperate worldspace.

So what is it going to be? Do we all realize that Hammerfell is going to be... extraordinary small if its going to have the same scale as Cyrodiil? Seperate worldspace I'd say. But that's just my opinion...
