Sadly, this will not be released by the end of summer (as that has pretty much come and gone). This is a huge mod; doing it mostly by myself takes a great deal of time (as there are few that would be as dedicated as I to make sure that how I see these worlds could come together, at least in these initial stages). I hope to recruit a team once I get to a more finalised stage of world building, but for now I am happy to piddle away my own free time to make sure that this mod reaches completion.

I have scrapped the interiors as exteriors, and will be building the world space in the north-most eastern corner of the Morrowind map (as not much is built there by way of other mods). I will just have to put up with any eventual conflicts, as this mod was bound to interfere with another mod of some sort regardless :( . The change in location came about as it is easier and more realistic to build the world space in areas that could have flow into the mainland of Morrowind (but still being quite far away so as to feel as if one has traveled beyond the veil of imagination and stepped onto the shores of the provinces of ELSEWORLDS! . At the end of it all, this is turning out to be a game world unto itself, but it will have ties to Morrowind as best as I am able so that there is a connection while still reflecting my own imagination and vision. This way, the player can visit worlds that have been desired (like Deserts, Marshes, Rich Forests [Temperate and Tropical], and an emmersive interaction with the watery environments).

But this is a bit into the future, so I should not get too far a head of myself and stick with the task at hand).

First, I will soon be releasing an Elseworlds Armoury Mod (which will contain a great deal of content that will be included in the main mod, but it will be a singular mod, as the content will be purchaseable in this version, while in ELSEWORLDS! itself, the content will be structured in leveled lists and odd finsd while adventuring). I am releasing it as I do want all you wonderful people to be ablt to use what I have made thus far without having to wait til the final mod is released (that could be a while yet). Also, by releasing the content earlier, I ensure that it is not lost due to some unfortunate computer accident (knock-on-wood). I will explain more about the armoury a bit later (there is still a bit left to polish here and there befire I show off any screens).

As for new content: The Fae Flies: http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g235/Wesadam/Creatures/WAR_FAEFLY_SCREENS1.jpg , http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g235/Wesadam/Creatures/WAR_FAEFLY_SCREENS2.jpg
These little insects will populate the various areas of the mod (depending on the area would depend on which specific Fae Fly species one would find). The idea behind these is to add not only life and colour to the areas, but also that there would be, on occasion, a rare/unique version that would drop a pair of wearable wings. The rare one would be a great deal larger than the normal flies, and would be a far more aggressive (the normal ones would not attack or be able to harm the player at all, as they are meant for atmosphere mostly). The wings of the fly represent the wings that the player will be able to wear as well.

The wings will be purchaseable in the armoury (again, for those that can not wait for the main mod).

As always, more to come :wave:

I did not, I am afraid; try sending it again (a PM, that is).

Also, I forgot to mention http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g235/Wesadam/Extra%20Pics/WAR_GOLDEN_GLASSWARE1.jpg that will be available for purchase in the armoury (with other variations being added for the main mod).

The FaeFlies and glassware look fantastic my friend! If you ever should have need of ideas or little bits of help here or there (not modeling or such of course), I'd be happy to lend a helping hand to such a fabulous project, and a good friend :)


Looking forward to that armoury buddy :) :goodjob:

Wow, everything you make is truly amazing--I never run a game where I'm not using one of your portraits--but that golden glassware is some of the most stunning work I've seen yet. :drool:

Update Time :twirl: !

I am finalising the armoury, and it has a few extras (besides the amours and weapons) :) .

I am still deciding where to place the "Lamp" (entrance to the armoury), but here is a quick visual walkthrough of what to expect (mostly):

(be prepared to fly and water breathe in this area, as there are no shortcuts; the flying islands are not connected and once one falls in the water, there is no way out save for levitating upward or locating the hidden underwater exit portal).

(There is also an exhibition area with amble display and wooden mannequins, male and female)


Also, a quick screen of http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g235/Wesadam/Extra%20Pics/WAR_DEA_SCREENS1.jpg and http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g235/Wesadam/Extra%20Pics/WAR_UNDERMAILLE_SCREEN1.jpg (which can be worn under any BB armour, so if you have a favourite skimpy set but want to RP a bit more protection in certain situations, then here is a solution; the undermaille comes in several colours and textures [chain or leather]).

I think that this is all for now (so I best be drawing this monster to a close :) ).

'Til Later :angel:

You continue to out-do yourself my friend. Truly stunning work! The detail in your textures is impeccable, and the meshes look fabulous! I especially like the look of the flying gardens, and the deep cavern! Can't wait to go for a nice swim ^_^.

Kudos to you man. Many types of glorious kudos.

Very much interested in this. ^^ By the way, it seems like you've not responded to my email or my PM asking for permission to make a Sarek companion. Maybe you lost the requests or maybe the answer is no. I'd really like a response in either case. ^^ And if the response is positive, a little bit of the specifics surrounding the Sarek might be nice.

Thanks in advance.

I have been thinking about it and mulling it over before I made a response, and it is not something that I am comfortable with ATM, as the Sarek are due for an overhaul (visually and stat-wise). I appreciate your enthusiasm and persistence, but I need to do more work on the Sarek to satiate my own creative desires for quality assurance and to assuage my perfectionist tendencies/OCD :).

Take Care :angel:

Ah, I see. ^^ I must seem impatient to you, I just am used to people responding immediately with something like "I'll think about it and get back to you."

I've been having some ideas, too, for the Sarek... You might like one of them. I'll PM it to you. ^^

Gorgeous work as always! :D I take it this is M'Haarjan themed? I rather like the M'Haarjan...haven't played as one yet, but I really like them for some reason.

Do you think you could get some more screenshots any new or updated races? :) I'll have to go look through your mods and try out some of your new races. ;) If its not finished already, I'd like to see more screenies of the insect races.

Thanks all; I hope not to dissapoint :) !

Quick question, as I add finishing touches:

Would anyone mind terribly if I place the lamp (enterance to the armoury and other areas proper) in the Telvanni vault in Vivec? I want to do this, as it would add an already interesting area known for its treasures with heavy guarding and securities (as the wonders contained in the lamp would surely be a treasure of some nature). It is reminiscent of Aladdin's lamp being found in a magical cavern (in a round about way). In this way, entering the lamp would not be so easily accessible (so a bit of a quiet challenge, regardless of how one plays it through).

Discuss :talk: ...

Hmm... Sounds good to me. Something that good is worth guarding, and worth fighting for methinks.

@Westly: Any of the great house vaults would be fine. Or perhaps in one of the tougher sixth house bases or something comparably difficult. "Finishing touches" sounds great to me. Waiting eagerly for the release! :)
