If your that concerned, just wait a few years until its done, but if you want to try it, make a copy of your morrowind directory and install it there. Its not hard, plus there is a guide in the mods section on how to do so

1.heres an ingame pic of my map (will insert in a a few mins) thats how much land mass it adds.

2.There are only 2 maps that have been released and yes map 1 has alot of quests and things to do, TR adds alot of content and i mean ALOT.

3.im pretty sure they are working on adding quests for map 2 so those should be out sometime within next year i would think (?)

4. i highly suggest you get it.

Well, I hate to jack your thread Wander, but I've always been confused as to exactly what Tamriel Rebuilt is trying to accomplish. Are they just building mainland Morrowind, or are they building all of Tamriel? If the latter is true, will they simply remake Cyrodiil as seen in Oblivion or build it from scratch. What about the other provinces? Will it all be one worldspace?

Then you must be a very busy man to not have enough time to type www.tamriel-rebuilt.org into your browser and read the first and second short paragraph

Tamriel Rebuilt is an effort to build all of main land Morrowind from the boarders of Cyrodil to the edges of the eastern sea. That also includes the boarder with Argonia and the northern sea/boarder with Skyrim.

Tamriel Rebuilt has released a sizable landmass already, all of it is within the same "worldspace" as Vvardenfell: you can swim right across to it if you really want. So far, they've roughly doubled the playable area of Morrowind: Maps 1 and 2 come to be about the same size as Vvardenfell.

TR is very stable. It comes with lore friendly books, most of them coming from previous Elder Scrolls releases. There are also new enemies, new dungeons, and new ingredients. Map 1 is littered with quests like you'd find in vanilla Morrowind, and when Map 3 is released, Map 2 will have been given the same treatment. As far as I remember, this is the game plan: to populate the previous release with quests along with the release of a new landmass.

The update coming along sooner or later will include the Velothi city of Necrom, and the release after that will cover the area around and including Almalexia. etc etc until they've got all of mainland morrowind covered. From there? I don't think they have plans to go on into any other provinces. There are various groups for this kind of thing. Someone is working on Argonia, there was a group working on Cyrodil, and there is still a group around for Skyrim. None of them have releases as substantial as Tamriel Rebuilt's Morrowind, however.

I recommend getting it. They've done a GREAT job. I'd say it was as good as Bethesda's original work on Vvardenfell, but the truth is that they've done a BETTER job than Bethesda at world building.

i think they plan to reamke all of tamriel starting with morrowind and then working they're way throught the other provinces, i know that theres also another team recreating Skyrim, so theres a small possiblitly that they might merge that with TR.

You've succeeded in making me sound like a lazy [censored], but understand my confusion after reading these two paragraphs, both from the TR website:
Then enter Tamriel Rebuilt, the enormous effort of completing the province of Morrowind, piece by piece.
Our goal is to create the mainland area of Morrowind in a way truthful to the vision of Bethesda Softworks through the study of TES lore. We welcome all quality work contributed to our cause, from models to interiors, from music to quests!

In essence, Tamriel Rebuilt(TR) is a 'mod'(mod is a universal abbreviation for 'modification'. Thus modding stands for 'modifying', and 'modders' are 'modifiers') project for Morrowind and Oblivion, one that attempts, province by province, to eventually create the entire continent of Tamriel province by province as presented by Bethesda in its previous Elder Scrolls titles. Eventually all of the nine provinces that comprise Tamriel will be playable in several or all of the Elder Scrolls games, starting with TES:III Morrowind.

ican, there is no project for Oblivion anymore (or, rather, Tamriel-Rebuilt is no longer involved in the Hammerfell project), and they have no plans to do any of the areas outside of the province of Morrowind.

I can see how you would have been confused when reading this, i admit, the title is a bit misleading, they arent rebuilding tamriel atall, or rebuilding anything for that matter. They are simply building the mainland of morrowind.

I guess in a way they are kinda rebuilding it, because it was in TES Arena. But thats a different story.

Did you completely miss the second paragraph? Must I blow it up to 6 font like you?

That's why I was confused. I've been confused about this ever since I first visited their website. It has nothing to do with this thread.

How so? Their website has two separate paragraphs both saying different things about the ultimate goal of Tamriel Rebuilt. Maybe you should learn to spell before you try to insult me.

how big is the landmass compared to vanilla MW?



The landmass of TR maps 1 and 2 combined is slightly smaller than vanilla Morrowind but not much perhaps 5-10% smaller is a fair guess , given that there are approximately 900 exterior cells in TR maps 1 and 2 combined though many of these are shoreline with varying amounts of land in those cells. Morrowind esm has 1390 exterior cells listed but around 400 of these are underwater and a long way from shore, a better indication is the 980 exterior cells in the mod 'Texture fix' which repairs texture seams on the Vanilla landmass though many of the cells in Texture fix are also shoreline and islands with varying amounts of land in those cells.

I think its around 1800 cells in total, as in, just exterior cells, underwater and above. Im not 100% though.

I'm hoping this post is obvious sarcasm, but you used the possessive word "your" in place of the contraction "you're".

I'm no grammar Nazi, but I find it hilarious when someone who can't spell tries to demean my intelligence.
