Working Status of existing Morrowind Mods
Once you have played through the basic Morrowind you will probably want to start adding some of the hundreds of mods so you enhance parts of game play to suit your style or just improve the look and variety in the game. This page is a list of mods and their status in regards to running on the OpenMW engine.
What the status symbols mean:
 | Works as in vanilla, there may be a couple of warning messages written to the error log but nothing that affects the function. |
 | Currently some or most of the mod works as expected but there are issues, see the description text for bug references or work arounds. |
 | Not working yet, the description text should explain why and which bugs affect the mod. |
 | Needs retesting following bug fixes and code updates. |
 | This mod is not expected to ever work in OpenMW due to major errors in the mod or it using functions that are not available. |
For installing mods check the tutorial section for the OpenMW improved Mod installation method
Anyone who is a member of the wiki group can add details of mods they have tested, see the user control panel to get access, or if you are unsure of wiki editing you can message Tinker from the forum member list.
| Mod name | Status | Download url | Description | OpenMW version |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Abot's birds | | Nexus | Runs almost flawlessly. There are warnings in log which may be safely ignored about failures to find idle animations for some added creatures. Tester — Amenophis | 0.37 |
| Abot's Silt Striders | | Nexus | The rotation of the silt strider is 90° off (related to unimplemented «Face» function). | 0.35 |
| Abot's Water Life | | Nexus | Several script warnings for PlaceItem using an explicit reference that is ignored. Several missing attack and idle animations. Many parts do work such as fishing, though maybe not as in vanilla. Shells, starfish and coins often just appear as a bounding box and it seems none can be harvested. Tester — Tinker | 0.35 |
| Adamantium Armor | | UESP | No problems, works as in vanilla Morrowind. Tester - Cramal | 0.35.1 |
| Advanced Herbalism | | Nexus | This mod could never have worked properly in vanilla due to script errors. There is an updated version where the scripts work but there is still a problem that trainers do not always appear. Tester — Tinker | 0.34 |
| Animal Realism | | Nexus | No problems, works as in vanilla Morrowind. Tester — Cramal | 0.35.1 |
| Animated Morrowind - Expanded | | Mod History | The «fixed» version loads without errors in OpenMW and added characters do appear. Two scripts are still broken, trying to use Playsound3d with volume and pitch parameters, the parameters should be deleted or the correct command used Playsound3dvp. Tester — Tinker | 0.35 |
| Apel's Fire Retexture | | Nexus | Works as intended. Uses "NiFogProperty" which is not implemented yet. | 0.35 |
| Assassin Ambush | | Nexus | Assassins are occasionally stuck within walls or doors. Sometimes rogues do not initiate combat. Otherwise the mod appears to work as intended. | 0.35.1 |
| Balmora Balcony House | | Nexus | No problems found. | 0.33 |
| Better Beasts v1.2 by AlienSlof | | LadyMoiraine | Works as expected. Tester — asmo | 0.36.1 |

| Bitter Coast Sounds | | UESP | No problems found, works as in vanilla Morrowind. Tester — Cramal | 0.35.1 |
| Blight Bounties | | Author's site | Works the same as in vanilla Morrowind. Tester — Loriel | 0.36.1 |
| Books of Vvardenfell | | Fliggerty | Everything seems to work as expected though some books do have slightly different titles in the inventory than those in the books. Testers — PoorYorec, Tinker | 0.34 |
| Black Panther | | Author's website | No problems found. | 0.34 |
| BTB's Sorted New Alchemy Potions | | Mod history | Using the esp for AOF style potions and the meshes, textures, icons for vanilla style potions, the mod works perfectly | 0.33 |

| Children of Morrowind | | Author's website | Previous tester had incorrect testing environment; needs testing. | 0.35.1 |

| Creatures | | Nexus | Should be issue-free since 0.35.0 version. | 0.35 |
| Daedric Signposts v2 by Nazz | | ModHistory | Works as intended. | 0.36 |
| Deus Ex Machina - A Steampunkyish Mod | | Nexus | The mod is partially playable. Going to the island itself via levitation crashes the game (edit by scrawl: crash may be fixed in master/commit24de6ba27e06a3, please test), but you can travel to it via various dungeons added by the mod in Morrowind. Some meshes don't appear and OpenMW-CS is unable to load the plugin due to errors. | 0.35 |
