OpenMW

Build Status Coverity Scan Build Status

OpenMW is an attempt at recreating the engine for the popular role-playing game Morrowind by Bethesda Softworks. You need to own and install the original game for OpenMW to work.

  • Version: 0.35.1
  • License: GPL (see docs/license/GPL3.txt for more information)
  • Website: http://www.openmw.org
  • IRC: #openmw on irc.freenode.net

Font Licenses:

  • DejaVuLGCSansMono.ttf: custom (see docs/license/DejaVu Font License.txt for more information)

Getting Started

The data path

The data path tells OpenMW where to find your Morrowind files. If you run the launcher, OpenMW should be able to pick up the location of these files on its own, if both Morrowind and OpenMW are installed properly (installing Morrowind under WINE is considered a proper install).
