Remark on the main site

Post by blackbird »

"In essence, TR is a 'mod' (mod is a universal abbreviation for 'modification'. Thus modding stands for 'modifying', and 'modders' are 'modifiers'.) project for Morrowind, one that attempts to create the whole world of Tamriel on computer as presented by Bethesda in its previous Elder Scrolls titles."

It's not actually correct, in fact it should be to create the world better as bethesda would have done it (except for the lore).
TR doesn't accept velothi interrior with com bookshelves, tables or chairs (sole interiors in Vivec, like the lizards head). The interiors have lesser bleeding objects and the exteriors have in general more objects per cell.

I'm not sure how I feel about knocking the creators of TES like that. Aspiring to equal quality between mod and original game is a lot anyway.

I don't like getting a big head. Lets leave it as is. Besides, I always read that line as meaning we are trying to achieve the idealized standards that we all thought bethesda had set for the modders the first time we played morrowind.

Yeah, what Thrig said.

"modder" means "mud" in Dutch.

That's true or else people will think that we have a big air about ourselves.
And beth did make a lot of models for us to be used.
