OpenMW is an attempt to reimplement the popular role playing game Morrowind. It aims to be a fully playable, open source implementation of the game. You must own Morrowind to use OpenMW.

To give you a better idea of what this project is about, here are some of the aims for the future of OpenMW:

  • Be a full featured reimplementation of Morrowind.
  • Run natively on Windows, Linux and MacOS X.
  • Support all existing content, including Tribunal, Bloodmoon and all user created mods.
  • Allow much greater modability: change game rules, create new spell effects, etc through scripting.
  • Fix system design bugs, like the “dirty” GMST entries in mods, and the savegame “doubling” problem.
  • Improve the interface and journal system.
  • Improve game mechanics, physics, combat and AI.
  • Improve graphics to use more modern hardware.

It’s a pretty ambitious list, and there’s a lot left to do, but lately the work has made enormous progress due to increasing interest.
The latest version is 0.17.0, you can check a video of this release here.
Screenshots and additional information can be found on our OpenMW wiki

OpenMW is released under the GNU General Public License version 3, and all source code has been written completely from scratch. It also builds on various other open source tools, most notably OGRE for graphics, and Bullet for collision (and possibly physics).

We are currently looking for developers : feel free to check our forum for more informations.

Have a nice day,

-- The OpenMW team
