Morrowind Modder Interview - The Dungeon Master: Seelof

After six years, Morrowind Modding Interviews is back with a new host and a new slate of the community's legendary modders with new stories to tell, experiences to share, and advice to give! And what better way to ring in the return of Morrowind Modding Interviews than with the legendary Dungeon Daddy of Morrowind, the keeper of the crypt, the pinnacle of verticality, the master of deadly perils, the one, the only, Seelof! Without question the best dungeon modder in the Morrowind Modding Community, Seelof has built some of the biggest dungeons that Morrowind has ever seen, each beautifully rich in atmospheric detail. From the terrifying corprus pits of New Ilunibi to the dramatic underground vistas of Drethos Ancestral Tomb, to the perils of the Skeleton King's realm in Caldera Priory, and the turbulent halls of Bethamez in Of Eggs and Dwarves, Seelof has created some of the most memorable dungeon-delving experiences in the last few years, and that's not even counting his contributions to Morrowind Modding Madness! During this interview, hosted by Hurdrax Custos, Seelof will cover his experiences with modding Morrowind, how he came to the community, his inspirations, and more! Here's a full list of Seelof's mods:

For this week's episode of Morrowind Modding Interviews, we're talking with NullCascade, the project lead on MWSE 2.1 (and the upcoming MWSE 2.2), as well as the author behind a number of amazingly useful little lua mods, like Sophisticated Save System, Easy Escort, Happy Harvesting, Sounds of Souls, and so on and so forth. During the course of this interview, we discuss quite a few things, including features for MWSE 2.2, the new UI elements that will soon be possible, things Greatness7 should be doing, OpenMW compatibility issues, and of course NullCascade's thoughts on the dangers of caffeine. Due to missing a few user-submitted questions, the following interview questions are only answered here: Q: "What's the future of the MW animation system? What new things will lua-mwse allow us to do with it?" A: I can't speak too much of the animation system. A lot of work has been done by Hrnchmand to figure it out, and I plan on continuing his work. But I can't promise anything until after 2.1, or more likely 2.2. Q: "Do you think a skyrim style shared mod  configuration menu will be possible?" A: Absolutely. The UI subsystems are well understood. A shared mod config menu is the project that I will create myself to ensure that I have all the features I want in 2.2, just like my Modathon mods helped solidify the feature set for 2.1.

Today for Morrowind Modding Interviews, we're talking with Merlord, perhaps best known for his numerous immersion mods that add everything from small realistic elements to the game, to whole new gameplay features, like in his most popular mod, and one of the current favorites of this year's Morrowind Modathon Modding Competition, Frostwind - A Camping Survival Mod. During the course of this interview, we talk about quite a few things, including new features coming to Frostwind in the near future, what makes an RPG an RPG, the importance of adding immersion elements to the game, and a whole slew of other topics in this hour-long interview!

In 2001, before Morrowind ever released, Tamriel Rebuilt was formed on the Elder Scrolls forums with the goal of one day bringing the Morrowind mainland, and at the time the rest of Tamriel, to The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind once it released. Over 16 years later and the team at Tamriel Rebuilt, while largely changed, is still working hard and striving everyday towards that goal of making a unified Morrowind. Since those first few scattered posts in 2001, over 600 modders have passed through the doors of Tamriel Rebuilt, contributing thousands of new assets, literature, art, music, dungeons, towns and cities, and so much more to the project. By far the largest mod for Morrowind, today you can explore a vast swath of the mainland thanks to the tireless efforts of these amazing modders.

Today we have a special podcast, recorded back in late May of 2017, with a number of the lead developers from Tamriel Rebuilt, including Atrayonis, Gnomey, Kevaar, and Rats. This more or less coincides with Tamriel Rebuilt's 16th anniversary, and as such we spend a lot of time talking about the history of Tamriel Rebuilt, what's changed over the years, and the future of Tamriel Rebuilt, as well as what the project needs going forward.
