Solstheim

I believe they are recreating the morrowind version and only using the dragonborn DLC for assets.

different worldspaces. it will be possible to visit the morrowind solstheim and the dragonborn one as both will be in game. The thing is, unless you add a mod to travel between morrowind and skyrim when you start a new game you will only be able to play in morrowind and old solstheim because it isnt lore friendly to play morrowind and then skyrim 200 years later with the same character.

Oh Okay that makes sense, With Skyblivion Its only 5 years after Skywind, therefore you could go between them.

Skyblivion (Oblivion) is set 200 years before the events of Skyrim, what are you talking about?

Area takes place third era 399
Daggerfall begins in the third era 405
Morrowind takes place third era 427
Oblivion takes place third era 433
Skyrim takes place fourth era 201

I think he is saying that people who start a game in morrowind (skywind) could in theory then travel to cyrodiil to play oblivion (skyblivion).

let me just say this. Skywind will not be officially a place where your dovahkiin can travel nor will you be traveling between times officially for example: you will not be able to travel from skywind to skybilivion. You will need to make a new charactor for each.

Why? Why can't you let the people that want to travel from Skywind to Skyblivion and Skyrim do it? The people that don't want to do it could just not do it.

You could just have a side ESP that adds a spell that teleports you to Skyblivion or Skyrim and back.

Just thinking from a lore and practicality perspective. Even in the TES Lore from Skyrim Dovakin only observed a tear in the fabric of time using the Elder Scroll as a viewing portal. If you were to re create Cyyrodiil and Vvardenfell that can be traveled it would have to be current day which means a lot of unique writing although the geography for Cyyrodiil would be easy to recreate as you largely just change the NPCs. Vvardenfell would have to be different due to the events following the read year. Also there would have to be a hell of a lot of writing added to both regions, it would be the equivalent of redoing Skyblivion and Skywind again. That would really have to be separate mods done after both other ports are complete.

I'm sorry. 

I have no say in it. I'm just pointing out a logical progression. When I saw the video on youtube it showed the set up that you have to start one of the games separately so from the get go its a completely different game world that just happens to use the Skyrim engine.

I suppose it would be possible to take out all the NPCs and obliterate the south of Vvardenfell then when you go there we could just say that only remaining settlements are in hiding and then putting in the few that survived would be easy but that would be a different game.

I hear you there is a lot I like about vanilla Morrowind myself. I've been playing it since 2002 (release).

What you want kind of reminds me of Jade Empire with the Master Save. Complete the game then start again on epic hard with your Master Character. Except in Skyrim you max level the character then boom destroy Morrowind as a Vampire Lord who collects ingredients for Aijira.

Maybe what you want could be implemented as a straight coding optional mod after the main mod is finished.

I'm sorry. 

I see where you are coming from here. Very old school role playing. I havent played an Elder Scrolls game like that for a long while. I think what you want can be moddable as a submod with maybe radient story being set up and no main quest and of course allowing travel to both regions. That should make it more sandbox and give variety so that other people might download the submod just for the sandbox potential.

Zetman.  Get off this site you waste of space. We're not here to cater to the whims of vapid consumer locusts.  If fluffy mashed potatoes and chives were the only reason you would even think about coming to this site, I would go OUT OF MY WAY to ensure you never received said delectable carbohydrate chivity.

I'm not going to play it for Skyrim's game mechanics, because I prefer vanilla Morrowind's game mechanics over Skyrim's.

@Zetman Where not staying with skyrim mechanics. where going to have a lot of new mechanics in the game also ones that will be vary similar to the morrowind ones and some that are exactly the same. :)

Hey wait.  I already apologized.  I'll apologize again.  I do not mean to disparage the huge amount of work being done.  I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. 

Please Please don't ban me.  I'll stop talking about it, I promise. 

Please just don't ban me!  I'm sorry.  I'm sorry. 

Oh God please don't ban me!  I'm sorry!  I was just surprised is all.  I apologize!

Don't feed the trolls.  Seriously. These asstards act like they will never purchase a game unless the game makers go out of their way to port their characters over from another game.  Good for them.  Did they abstain from buying Oblivion because they couldn't port over their Morrowind character?  Or did they give Skyrim a pass because they could only make an approximation to their beloved champion of Cyrodil and not have all his dapper swag carry over to the new game?

Not going to ban you over it, but this same petulant behavior keeps cropping up all over.  Nit just here, but to people who put content together for their youtube channels, renowned book authors like GRR Martin... Pretty much any project with a creative force behind it.  The content consumers come in with their soapbox.

I'm not a troll.  I'm sorry.  I'm sorry.  How can I make it clear to you that I'm not being sarcastic?  I'm sorry. 

Please just no one ban me.  Please, I'm sorry.  I love Morroblivion.  And I'm sure I'll love this too.  I'm sorry. 

Please, I never meant to be offensive.  I'm sorry.  I'll take back everything.  You are right, I am wrong.  Please just don't ban me. I'm sorry. 

Zetman if you don't stop posting like that then you will get banned.

I apologize for missing your post.  It sounds awesome.  The whole thing sounds awesome. 

I'm sorry for being an idiot.  As an olive branch how about I do something for you guys.  I've never made a mod for anything except Civ 3 before.  And I'm not an artist.  But I can write.  I'm not a professional writer, I just do it sometimes as a hobby, so my work may not be up to par. 

But I see in another thread it suggests sending an example of my work to Justafan.  So I'll do that.  I'll post it here as well for everyone's perusal. 

This is a scene I wrote for myself taking place in Megatokyo .  It involves two characters from that series and takes place at some point in the future. 

Again, I'm sorry.  I typed before I thought.  I'm sorry. 

Edit-

Zetman if you don't stop posting like that then you will get banned.

Right, message received.  I will consider the situation resolved. 

Not exactly related, but also related with Solstheim.

Will the Skywind version of Solstheim be in same world space as Vvardnfell or will it have its own separate world? Or, in other words, will you be able to swim from Vvardenfell to Solstheim in Skywind?

It will be so that you can use your scroll of icarian flight to get to solstheim without artificial transition.
