Questions...

Post by Varine »

I was wondering if this is going to be released for Morrowind or Oblivion or parts on both.
A while ago I was thinking about making a mod that added the rest of the world to Oblivion, however if this mod is for Oblivion entirely then there wouldn't be a lot of use to remake the entire provinces when it would probably only conflict with your mod, which will undoubtably be far more popular.

There is a wonderful FAQ section that addresses this question as well as a Global Announcement (at the top of the forum) that addresses it, if you'd care to read them.

We won't be done with MW for years. By the time we would be finishing the rest of Tamriel, we would be middle aged.

It's possible, sure. Each province would need to be in its own world space, but sure... it's possible...

Restrictions in the game engine for TES 3 mean that going too far from cell (0, 0) causes a crash.

Therefore, other provinces aren't really viable. Also, like TF said, we'd be middle-aged by the time it was done. (If not dead :P)

i think your question has been answered. tes4 will include only the province of hammerfell.

If you would like to sue us for false advertising feel free to do so. In the mean time please stop bitching at us for what we call ourselves.

We are rebuilding tamriel... but not all at once. Making all of tamriel on a single engine is simply impossible.

Then we'd be called Morrowind/Hammerfell Rebuilt. Do you know how stupid that sounds?

Well, can you think of a better name for a project that is rebuilding two parts of Tamriel in different games?

We can't very well call ourselves "Morrowind on Morrowind and Hammerfell on Oblivion Rebuilt" can we. That'd just be stupid.

And "Provinces that Weren't Included in the Original TES Game Rebuilt for That TES Game" isn't very catchy either. :P

very true

Post by necridlycan »

very true it would be stupid lol ....look all i'm saying is that it sux that you guys cant actually REBUILD Tamriel hopefully in the near future you will tho because as an elder Scrolls fan i would love to see that happen but i would rather happen under you guys because i really did'nt like oblivion it made me feel like i was playing any other role playing game dont get me wrong the graphics were great and the charater customization but morrowind felt more free like an mmorpg with out having to deal with people

Well obviously not in the near future. Actually not in any future. It's impossible to rebuild all of Tamriel on the TES III engine without going into seperate worldspaces for different provinces. In any case it would take decades to finish. Morrowind by itself has taken years already and its not finished yet. The people working at TR are here on there own free time, we have lives so you can't expect us to be modding round the clock just so you can indulge yourself. If you want to make things move a litte faster than do something constructive to help us instead of complaining.

Tamriel has already been built once in a previous game, and it is not complete in these more recent games. Therefore, we are rebuilding it. Please keep similar negative opinions of yours to yourself in the future, as they increase TR's dislike of you.

Oh no you didnt

Rebuilding parts of it for each game engine, and that's that.

This whole thing's getting a bit pointless now. Let's just accept that TR is called what it is, and leave it at that.

(Unless you prefer MoMaHoOR or PtWIitOTESGRfTTESG, of course, in which case let the bickering continue!)

I prefer The Organization For Tamrielic Provincal General Refurbishment Reconstruction And Reorganization. TOFTPGRRAR

It's easy to say too once you get used to it.

GO TOFTPGRRAR!

Dunno, I don't think you can top PtWIitOTESGRfTTESG.

Bonus points to anyone who beats it! :P
