Which would you like to see first? Feel free to explain your thoughts.

By the way, I had to delete the old poll thread and make new one because people couldn't vote for some reason.

Poll: 
Obliviskyrim [Oblivion to Skyrim] or Morroskyrim [Morrowind to Skyrim]?

So that is what happened.  I was so confused this morning when it somehow vanished.  I was looking forward to seeing what people thought.

Hopefully this one works though.

I want to see both, so I figure I'll help whichever has the most support at first.  Since that seems to be MorroSkyrim, that's where my energies are focused.

By the way, I also can't see the poll.

Well, it seems we have a consensus.  Zero votes for Oblivion, and only one person that doesn't care whether we do Morrowind or Oblivion first.  Morrowind here we come!

Though, like Mooncat, I still do want to see them both eventually.

I can't see the poll. Anyway i don't really care. I'll help no matter which we do first. however I did like Oblivion more then Morrrowind, so I would like to see that one first. But I really want to do both more then anything. Anyway For some reason the andoran convertor doesn't convert the Oblivion esm right so I guess we have to do morrowind first.

Yeah, I don't know what's going on, but no matter what I do, it only works for a little bit, then locks up and prevents people from voting.

I love Morrowind and

I love Morrowind and Oblivion.. But Morrowskyrim first, I just... Could not play Morrowind again, I really wanted to, but the engine, the system was just far too old, the combat.. Maybe because I've played it for so long and so many times I started a new character? Morrowind changed my life, influenced me alot really.. So definitely Morroskyrim first I reckon. Also the poll does not show even when logged in.

Oblivion

Obliviskyrim! Again Morrowind? Here is morroblivion allready, why the heck it needs to be redone again? Oblivion is better game then Skyrim or Morrowind(personal opinion) so yeah, my vote for Obliviskyrim.

Oblivion was more fun and

Oblivion was more fun and memorable to me. Plus like Seferoth said we just did Morroblivion, why not try Obliviskyrim. It would even be easier for a transport mod to get you there, just use the gate at pale pass!

I still stick to Morroskyrim

I still stick to Morroskyrim but Ive just had an extra thought.

Oblivion was fun, thanks to the many mods and adventures I had, only reason why I gave up on it (before Skyrim came out) was because of my laggy computer and at that point couldn't take it anymore. In addition the ugly faces as always the reason of complaint ..

Anyway, if we convert Oblivion first NEW quests and events could be added to bridge the gap between Oblivion and Skyrim which includes:

* Murder of Ocato

* Thalmor related quests

- The Thalmor brings the ultimation (cart with lots of Blades' Heads)

* The Great War

* The floating island (The Books)

* Titus Mede seizing the Imperial City, inheriting the broken Empire (NOT Titus Mede II)

* Easter eggs from other mods

- Anyone ever played 'Tears of a Fiend'? A popular mod? Adding Alecia Ehothorn as an easteregg..

Though these will be a while since we have to convert every quest, detail, bug fixes etc for the original Oblivion first. AND, the Great War and other events occurs at least a hundred years after the original Oblivion storyline. Then again the same could be done for Morroskyrim

* The destruction of Vvardenfell

- Bit extreme though..! We want to rebuild it NOT destroy it XD

 

Anyway thats it for me now, either one we convert Im content with but my poll choice stands!

Hmm?

Hmm? Hasn't it been diclared Morrowind 1st. I'd think it would be wiser for the fact the team has more experiance putting in Morrowind and some people have already started on convering Morrowind. Morroblivion never was finished... May aswell try finish the main goal and get the GOTY edits before moving onto Cyrodiil and Shivering Isle.

@Didact1 So... If we add those quests are you suggesting removing the cliffracers from Vvardenfell aswell...? And other events that where said between the gap of Skyrim, Oblivion and Morrowind (Because that was never attempted in Morroblivion). I like the idea though, putting in mod quests and tweaks aswell as Infernal city & Soul of kings owo... >.< Idk if that was the idea of the project maybe we should make a vote. To keep it the way the games where at release or to have them lore based... Perhapse other suggestions...

I also can't see the poll or I'd click my choice.

I'd normally encourage the community to work on whichever of the two would be beneficial for them to work on first. Like everyone else, I look forward excitedly to the day when we can play both within Skyrim, so I don't care which one comes first; I choose whichever one makes the whole project easier / faster.

Now, all things being equal, if I had to make a choice for which one I'd like first it would be Morroskyrim. I'd always choose a modern Morrowind over a modern Oblivion.

vote Morroskyrim

new feel of Skyrim's engine with Morrowind and Oblivion for better interface, script, and there are complete region of the map that Skyrim have builtin for surprise DLC I think.

By the way, I can not see the poll button for clicking of either option.

MorroSkyrim for sure, I just

MorroSkyrim for sure, I just loved how the Morrowind environment looks and how the culture there is. It just feels to me that it fits together so much more than Oblivion and Skyrim. Oblivion just didn't really fit in that much to me.

The whole polling module is

The whole polling module is extremely unreliable unfortunately.  I haven't figured out a good way to set that up.  Lots of other people have problems with it, so I'm not really sure if there is a reliable way to set up polling in drupal forums...

Anyway, I voted for MorroSkyrim.

We were planning to do morrowind first anyway. And the convertor doesn't convert Oblivion as well as Morrowind . Plus, almost everyone thinks we should do morrowind first. So... MorroSkyrim yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EDIT: kinda funny, the new covertor doesn't convert the Morrowind_ob into the Morrowind_sk very well so...SkyBlivion yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!I guess

Haha, the results made me

Haha, the results made me laugh.

I'm for MorroSkyrim because that is closer to *the origional goal* of the site, and because while Oblivion is my favorite tes game at this point, Morrowind is less *playable* in its origional state, due to it being older than oblivion... Plus, I haven't played Morrowind as much, and would love to experiance it again with through the Skyrim engine.

Call it Skywind instead of

Call it Skywind instead of Morroskyrim. Call all three games united Elder Scrolls: The Third Era. Thematically, all three games portray the dissolution of the third-age world, leading up to the beginning of the fourth. The Mortal Gods are displaced, the Septim line is cut and the Dragon Fires extinguished, the mantle separating Mundus and Oblivion is shattered, and Alduin is returning to herald the end of an entire kalpa. To tie the games together, perhaps Akatosh anoints the soul of the Nerevarine at the end of the Oblivion main quest (after he banishes Dagon) with the blood of the dragon, the same way he annointed the Septims and rendered them "dragon-born," because he perceives the ending of this kalpa with so many catastrophic events in which the Nerevarine participated no less, and this signals the need for a dragonborn for Alduin will surely be on the rise. The entire narrative takes place over 200 years, which is nothing to an elf gifted in magic- just see Divayth Fyr, who is into the thousands of years lifespan. Plus the Nerevarine is immortalised by corprus and possibly the effects of the Heart. The beginnings of the games should be reworked to accommodate this. The PC should do the whole out of prison thing once, at the beginning of morrowind, and then alternative start locations should be done for Oblivion and Skyrim.

Also, do any of you know

Also, do any of you know about the Beyond Skyrim project? They are remaking Morrowind, (among other places) but in the Skyrim time-frame. So Red Mountain has exploded, the Sixth House is gone, new factions are on the rise, etc. They are making a Morrowind Resource Pack for Skyrim that is free for anyone to use in their own mods.

 

 

Morrowind Resource Pack
The Morrowind Resource Pack is an opt-in package of assets to be distributed outside of Steam with no limits on usage under the following rules:

  • Credit must be given to the appropriate modders
  • Usage of the assets must be in compliance with Bethesda's Terms of Service, since modifed Bethedsa assets will be included.
  • With the credit, it must be noted that usage of the assets in this pack does not mean that Return to Morrowind or affiliated contributors to this pack endorse the mod in any form.

I had forgotten about beyond

I had forgotten about beyond Skyrim.  Hopefully if/when they get further along they will have some good resources for us to borrow.

I have no clue why you would want to change the name to Skywind.  Our names are based on a theme.  Converted game first, game it is converted to second.  Also, it is probably best to keep story mods like this one as separate mods, to avoid someone getting a story they don't want, and forcing someone to own all three games.

Don't get me wrong though, your idea still looks pretty good.  I would just change the part about the Nereverine becoming a dragonborn, as it is stated in the lost prophecy that he was dragonborn in Morrowind.  All you need to believe is that the amulet of kings only works with a septim, and not just any dragonborn. 

Actually, we have a thread for this sort of thing here, so if you have any more ideas feel free to share them.

Doesn't this project already require that?  I thought Morroblivion was what was being attempted to be ported which required a Oblivion master file for Morrowind to work.

It's honestly not going to make much sense why a Dragonborn cannot wear the amulet since by all rights they should be able to.  That said, I think I can live with that minor continuity hiccup.
