OpenMW is a reimplementation of the game engine for Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, written completely from scratch.
Work began in 2008 by Nicolay Korslund and, despite his departure from the project last year, our community of developers and fans continues to grow.
We aim to create a cross platform (linux, Mac, Windows) game engine, with improved performance, and which resolves design issues from the original engine.

Get Involved:
OpenMW is a huge undertaking with v0.12.0 representing four years of work. To speed up development we are seeking developers who know C++, especially those with experience working with bullet physics and Ogre3d. With v0.13.0 the game will be at a point where we'll need bug testers. Finally, you can help promote the project by updating websites, forums, and by creating videos showcasing our latest developments.

License and Libraries
OpenMW is released under the GNU General Public License version 3. It also builds on various other open source tools, most notably OGRE for graphics, MYGUI, OPENAL, and Bullet for collision (and possibly physics).

Hello Everyone,
Just a little more bug fixing and some code writing for build automation and we'll have 0.12.0 out the door. The code is in lgro's trustworthy and clean hands (they are frequently washed). 0.12.0 includes Jhooks1 work on animations. These will be activated through the console for now as we don't have proper AI for yet.

Two exciting features will make their debut in version 0.13.0

    1. Dialogue GUI! GUS has done a lot of work on this feature already, but there is some broken backend stuff. Zini will work on broken things/backend stuff after finishing equipping item task.

    2. Water rendering. Also by Jhooks1.

Other News

  • We're shifting to smaller, more frequent releases. Our goal is a 1-2 month release cycle. Zini developed a multi-release roadmap. You can now check out the tentative plans for 0.13.0 through 0.15.0 at http://bugs.openmw.org:81/projects/openmw/roadmap We know people want to try out new features and we need their help identifying bugs. More new code released at one time means more to sort through to find the culprit(s) that are causing problems.
  • Yacoby continues work on terrain rendering. This feature will be added to 0.14.0 or later. OGRE 1.8 should make adding terrain much easier than is currently possible with OGRE 1.7, but 1.8 is a couple months past their original release date (we understand, our 0.12.0 release is five months overdue).
  • Jhooks1 is looking at Project Aedra's excellent implementation of the bullet physics library and seeing what can be ported over to OpenMW. He's already been able to fix the falling through floor bug.
  • ElderTroll wrote an article for freegamer about open source morrowind engines. http://freegamer.blogspot.com/2012/02/morrowind-open-source-pngines-who-they.html
  • BrotherBrick created a wikipage with instructions about testing for novices, I hope that It can be filled with more info soon. Here is the link: http://openmw.org/wiki/index.php?title=Testing
  • Our Project History page now contains our complete changelogs.http://openmw.org/wiki/index.php?title=Project_History
  • We have two new Developers: Mirrcceam94 joined us recently and has squashed some bugs. Scrawl is a developer from the vdrift project where he works on graphics! OpenMW is waiting to implement advanced graphics until after the 1.0.0 release, but there are still many rendering tasks that need finishing; like particles, a proper skybox, and weather.

Who says it’s not all about looks? Version 0.14.0 is shaping up to be one sexy release. OpenMW is getting terrain rendering, water rendering and clothed npcs… sometimes it’s all about looks.Image

Part of me is going to miss the floating houses, boats, and ruins when terrain is added, but I’ll forget them once I’m running around Morrowind freely.

Here is a screenshot from 0.11.1 compared to 0.14.0. I don't know how to change the size, but you can right click the image and select "view image" it'll take you to our website. The difference is dramatic.

Image

Image

We have only one outstanding feature left to be completed; clothed NPC's. Other unfinished features have been pushed to 0.15.0, so we should have 0.14.0 released before Morrowind's 10th anniversary on May 1st.

Raevol got the developers to write about what they are currently working on and what they are about to start. It was a terrific idea and something will likely do more often.

So from the horse's mouth:

ACE
Working on getting the esm records to save properly, right now some data is lost when saving so I’m working on tracking that down and hopefully being able to make close to byte-perfect copies.
Once I’ve gotten all that worked out I think I’m going to slip back to only being the Windows package maintainer for a while, perhaps see if I can build a new dependency package for windows developers.


jhooks1
Right now I am working on clothing/armor.
For .15 I hope to work more on the physics system that I showed off on youtube recently. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VGQYZwA2Fw&list=PL14E8F94A73754549&index=1&feature=plpp_video
I also want to bring in some of Chris’s work on animating creatures. Of course though, if he wants to, he should take the lead in bringing them into openmw. Even if we can’t get Ogre’s animation system working, the way he is applying the bone weights is more efficient and may be able to be implemented into openmw.


Chris is still trying to insert animations into ogre3d’s animation system and it actually sort of works. The main problem is that .nif file format used for Morrowind’s character models is closed source and have no documentation on how they are designed. To get the animations working Chris needs to reverse engineer everything himself. Take a look at these two videos; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEZjnIlKqU4&feature=relmfu and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXfF_hL0G3U If you have any advice or help to offer, that would be appreciated.

OTOH collision with terrain works with the new physics jhooks implemented. That’s very good news for 0.15.0.

zini
Working on the world model; data structures and preparations for game mechanics. Basically the non-exciting stuff. Wasn’t planning to do that for 0.14.0. originally, but people are chomping through the exciting stuff (graphics and the user visible parts of game mechanics) so fast, we were on the verge of running out of this kind of tasks that don’t have uncompleted prerequisite tasks.


hircine worked on the GUI's for containers and the inventory, but his C++ is a little rough so gus stepped in to help. Now they have teamed up and everything looks good.

Oh, yes: gus finished with factions. It’s ready! More quests!

scrawl
I’m getting a little annoyed already by the graphics stuff, so I’ll take a break in terms of implementing some GUI elements that I’ve wanted to see for a long time. Mainly:
- Tooltips
- Door markers on the map
- Tooltip for the object that the crosshair points on


Scrawl’s contributed a lot of amazing work to the 0.14.0 release including the minimap, terrain (with yacoby), better water and even more. We'd clone 7 scrawls, but you know the legal red tape...

OpenMW Version 0.14.0 Released!

Postby OpenMW » 01 May 2012, 05:15

The OpenMW team is proud to announce the release of version 0.14.0! This release precedes Morrowind’s 10th Anniversary by 2 days! Release packages for Ubuntu are now available via our Launchpad PPA https://launchpad.net/~openmw/+archive/openmw . Release packages for other platforms are available on our Download page http://code.google.com/p/openmw/downloads/list . This release brings many notable features, including terrain and water rendering! A video highlighting many of the new changes in this release made by our very own WeirdSexy can be found here.

http://www.youtube.com/user/MrOpenMW


Please note:

There is a regression in the Launcher in this release, from which you will observe that the rendering subsystem will default to OpenGL regardless of what was previously selected. This will be fixed in the next release. This can be overcome by setting the rendering system explicitly from the launcher each time, or running the OpenMW binary directly from the command line, which will select the renderer that has been set in your config file.
There is a known issue where a crash may occur underwater with the underwater effect enabled on OS X

Changelog:

Fix for meshes rendering with the wrong orientation
Fix for better grabbing of small objects
Fix to enable toggling of collision rendering
Updates to be compatible with Ogre 1.8.0 RC1
Fix for Wireframe mode applying to HUD and Console
Fix for terrain crashing when moving away from predefined cells
Fix to allow OS X Launcher to handle spaces in the binary path
Fix to support TGA textures
Fix to support wireframe mode in water
Added water rendering
Added terrain rendering
Added ability to render Path Grid
Added Factions support
Added Local Map
Added Compass/Mini-Map
Added Clothing/Armour redering
Added Window Pinning
Added Auto-Equip.
Added support for containers tracking changes to their contents
Added several NPC Dialogue Window improvements
Added backend for a game settings manager
Added backend for a Spell List and selected spell
Added backend for NPC holstered/drawn state
Added a Morrowind.ini Importer (not yet included in the binary packages)
Refactored the Sound code
MyGUI updated to version 3.2.0

Release packages for other platforms are available on our Download page http://code.google.com/p/openmw/downloads/list.This version includes a reimplementation of the physics and player movement system, elevating the player from slug to hobbit status. Terrain collision and many newly-implemented GUI elements are also featured in this release. Our very own WeirdSexy has made a release video for your viewing pleasure.


youtu.be/kkOCH6bWqeo


Changelog:

- Reimplemented physics system/player movement
- Implemented terrain collision
- Implemented pulsating lights
- Implemented Magic Effect Bookkeeping, and Feather/Burden effects

- Fixed terrain handling in non-predefined cells


For the upcoming 0.16.0 release we are planning to implement many skills and attributes. If you want to help out with the project, but are unable to code, we need help discovering the formulas used for skills, magic, and attributes and also testing and confirming the ones that have been described are accurate. For more information see this forum post http://openmw.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=755 and this one as well http://openmw.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=766.

Hello everyone !

The major news for this update comes via Mark (creator of the Crystal Scrolls) : he nearly finished multiple esp/esm support! There are numerous problems, but things are progressing : you'll soon be able to travel to Solstheim!

garvek, our new developer who is also part of the dugeonhack project, started working on cmake fixes and making OpenMW compile with MSVC. The DungeonHack team is in the process of deciding whether to help OpenMW reach basic functionality and then base DungeonHack off our engine. Sounds good to me!

zini after last week of bugfixes and checking if features from merged branches were working, he has returned to working on the script implementation. Excellent!

jhooks1 is continuing work on the physics system. He fixed a bug that allowed players to run up the walls if their speed was high enough. Unfortunately his work on enabling animations through Ogr3d's system still can't handle robes and some creatures. If someone is an expert in animations then you're help is welcomed on our forums.

Gentoo overlay for OpenMW has reached alpha status and awaits testing. Big thanks (if it's working correctly) to edmondo.

Gus added the setangle and setscale instructions but there is still much to be done before his branch is merged into the master.

Scrawl has been working his wonders (namely by finishing the Spell window and alchemy windows). He also changed the color of the water to look less tropical and more like in vanilla Morrowind.

Image

Image

Lurkers of the irc channel are reporting that he mentioned:
I have started rewriting the shader system to allow GLSL. I am a making sort of a library out of it, it will be similar to ogre RTShaderSystem but much better. Then the user can put in a settings file which shader language he wants :P


Ho, and two more developers pvdk and k1ll are active again :)

Finally, we are looking for someone who knows QT to start work on developing a replacement to Bethesda's Construction Kit for OpenMW. If you fit the bill it would be a huge help to the project. Any computer science or game design students out there with free time this summer?

What link should we point QT developers to?

Side note: OpenMW's default forum theme makes it very (subjective opinion) unreadable.

PS: Maybe you can hire people from http://qt-project.org/wiki/OnlineCommunities http://www.qtcentre.org/content/?s=d7b3 ... 18b1907dcd :)

Nice progress. With an editor this could actually become a nice engine for a new really free game also :)

However do you really plan to code the editor from scratch in qt? Since you are using Ogre3D, wouldn't it make more sense to use ogitor or that (older) terrain editiing program as a base for the editor? Or is that already what you have planned?

Maybe some collab with Summoning Wars would be nice too, as it is an RPG also and they are struggling to make an editor for their (Ogre3D based) game as well.
Maybe it would even make sense to port that entire game over to a common FOSS RPG base to use both for 1st person RPGs and diablo like ones... probably not realistic but the though was to awesome to not write it down ;)

Post 1.0 Openmw will likely gain support for new model formats. I am not sure what formats, but remember we are open source, so it's really whatever people make OpenMW capable of rendering. Also, our renderer is Ogre3d, so think about what formats Ogre3d already supports.

@Julius
Wouldn't that be nice great if we could collaborate with SummoningWars? There's probably too little that would be suitable for both projects, but you could always suggest it on our forums. Also, it looks like SummoningWars will be using Ogitor, which our project lead doesn't think would work well for our needs.

@qubudop
I'll post a recruitment letter on the qt forums soon. Thanks for the advice and all your help with the project.
For steering potential developers to the editor there are two big steps. First, here is the wiki page for new developers http://openmw.org/wiki/index.php?title=Contribution_Wanted and the editor's design documents http://openmw.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=14 We are looking for someone skilled in qt, who is doesn't mind working with our existing design structure.

Hello everyone,
OpenMW is proud to anounce version 0.17.0!
Over the past months we have experienced an amazing increase in activity and this is noticeable in the length it takes for new releases :D.
First of all a screenshot of course! :)

Image
Isn't it gorgeous?


The release video:

youtu.be/uI0GP2p89rA


And a FAQ video:

youtu.be/g2PKBD0D9Gw



So, as you can see this project is becoming reality really quick now and will be a major milestone for the Morrowind community.
We still can use all help we can get (which open-source project can't?) and are interested in all those who are interested :). We can use coders, maintainers, testers, spreaders, etc.
Want to be part of the team that made this project reality? Be sure to check out our Forums.

We hope to be hearing from you soon,

The openMW team.
