I was actually really looking
I was actually really looking forward to Skyblivion, not sure if it's ever going to get off the ground though, at least not within the next year or so.
What I don't understand is
What I don't understand is why we don't focus more on Skyblivion than Skywind, seeing as how Morrowind has had more than its fair share of remakes already. Oblivion gets nothing. Seriously.
Once skywind is more complete
I don't know about you guys
I don't know about you guys but... Disappearing sounds kinda good.lol jk
"Seriously"? You are free to
"Seriously"? You are free to focus on it more yourself, that's why I made Skyblivion - to attract people willing to work. Not to tell others what they should do just because someone thinks so and wants something.
Agreed, if your not or don't
And don't be afraid to
And don't be afraid to suck... the road to success is paved with failure. Learning what not to do has a funny way of turning into knowing what to do.

Theres lots of reasons; most of the talented modders have more interest in morrowind than oblivion. There is a two generation gap between the games, so the ability to bring the content into the newer gaming engine has more impact. Because of the remakes there is also a large foundation for assets that can help to broaden the impact of the game. Oblivion just doesn't have these things going for it.
I personally think that oblivion will be better served in the next TES6 engine rather than Skyrims. There has been a shift in the way Skywind is being made as well, in the fact that its not just a conversion, but a complete overhaul to modernize the game. As I said before oblivion doesn't really have anything assets wise new to bring to the table, so will on the whole remain closer to a straight port. Advantages are that you can deliver it as a finished product much quicker. Disadvantage is that its too similar a feel and you could question why spend the time on bringing to a newer engine. Like what do you REALLY get for bringing it into Skyrim?
I can basically confirm TES
I can basically confirm TES VI: Morro(insert other half name of continent)...
For some reason that's just the way things seem to go around here.
Skyblivion (and skywind) are
Skyblivion (and skywind) are not only simple ports to a new engine, they give the ability to visit different provinces in the same game and with the same char.That's why there is so much interest (otherwise, graphic mods for oblivion are sufficient).
And there could be a lot of improvements for skyblivion too (look at the jerral mountains in oblivion vs the jerral mountains in skyrim...). I'm sure it will be completed anyway, but it may take some time...
Happychappy, by your logic
Happychappy, by your logic Morroblivion never should've been made in the first place. After all, Morrowind and Oblivion were only a generation apart.
If you guys are going to be so focused on resurrecting Morrowind all the time, why even bother putting up Skyblivion? Like I said, Oblivion has had no remakes. Morrowind has had plenty. Aren't we doing these projects not just for ourselves, but for everyone else as well? What about all those people who love Oblivion more than Morrowind like me? Should I start a petition and get everyone who wants Skyblivion more to sign?
Hell, why don't you guys just scrap Skyblivion altogether and/or let someone else take it up who actually wants it done? Maybe another site altogether? Might as well, if all this site will do is resurrect Morrowind for every new TES game.
We are focused on skywind
We are focused on skywind because we like morrowind, if you like oblivion then WORK ON IT. Dont complain to us that we arent working on it yet, especially if you arent going to work on it either. We will get to it, most of us like morrowind more, we arent telling anyone that they cant work on skyblivion.
I really don't have the time
I really don't have the time right now. I'll get around to it when my sanity comes back. I'm not saying you guys HAVE to work on Skyblivion, I'm just trying to make a point.
sorry if i sounded like a
sorry if i sounded like a jerk, but its just that most of us are trying to get one done before starting up another project. its best to do this 1 project at a time.

Actually, I'm pretty sure we are doing these projects for ourselves? I don't know about everyone else, but I'm not so altruistic as to spend what little free time I have working on a massive project that I can't even take any credit for or add to my portfolio.
If you want to see Skyblivion done, work on it yourself. This is a community that rewards self-starters. I hear that you still don't know much about modding, but you're going to have to do some research to get started on your own. We're always happy to point you in the direction of some easier tasks that you can begin learning with.
As for myself, I fully plan to contribute to Skyblivion -- once Skywind is in a playable state (not complete, because if Morroblivion is any indication, it will never truly be complete). I simply choose to focus on Skywind because it's what everyone else is focusing on, and I'm a big fan of pooling resources.
I like Morrowind and Oblivion
I like Morrowind and Oblivion and Skyrim. I'm working on Skywind when I'm basically done on the tasks I'm involved in, I'll move to Skyblivion and continue to update Skywind as needed.
Obviously one may want to see Oblivion remade rather than Morrowind but today the fastest way to see Skyblivion make progress is to either contribute to Skyblivion or to help complete Skywind.
PS: We moved far away from the initial topic of this thread.

I like how you would take the time to organize a petition but not to give 3D max a whirl or 1 of the zillion things, easy things you could do to help lol silly rabbit

Zilav: yay! Thanks. :D
Hey, I love seeing Skywind come along, but my own modding desires prevent me from helping out. Here, my modding desires came in parallel with something that could be used for Skyblivion. So I was thrilled to be able to share it. I think that Oblivion was my all time favorite game, so it makes me sad to not see a lot of work on Skyblivion, but if I'm not doing it, I have no power to ask others to work on it. I'm thrilled to see what Zilav and Co. have done so far, and I'm glad that there are no closed doors stopping willing modders from being able to contribute.
Also, just for the record:
So long as I'm credited (and it never shows up on steam or some similar site where artists lose their rights), Morroblivion can use any of my Nexus mods to further Skyblivion/Skywind/ other port projects. :)

I wish I knew exactly how a medium-sized game-creating team operated... I think it was like 50 people working on Skyrim (Voice actors not included of course). I want to know exactly what is done first and what is done last... Since this is an open project, that feeling of "perfection" is hard to get because there are different flavors of people's work throughout the game, making it inconsistent, in terms of graphics, etc.
omg instead of having this
omg instead of having this discussion you guys could have made much progress with skyblivion already :P
its all about initiative, action, and hard labour, and best of all, cooperation, now get your asses over to the ck and work :P
