Current Status

The main quests in Morrowind, Tribunal and Bloodmoon are all
completable. Some issues with side quests are to be expected (but rare).
Check the bug tracker for a list of issues we need to resolve before the
“1.0” release. Even before the “1.0” release however, OpenMW boasts some
new features, such as improved graphics and user interfaces.

Pre-existing modifications created for the original Morrowind engine can
be hit-and-miss. The OpenMW script compiler performs more thorough
error-checking than Morrowind does, meaning that a mod created for
Morrowind may not necessarily run in OpenMW. Some mods also rely on
quirky behaviour or engine bugs in order to work. We are considering
such compatibility issues on a case-by-case basis - in some cases adding
a workaround to OpenMW may be feasible, in other cases fixing the mod
will be the only option. If you know of any mods that work or don’t
work, feel free to add them to the Mod status wiki page.

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).
