Release date pls.

Do you plan on giving an intro into the lore for those of us knaves who have never played an Elder Scrolls game?

Release date pls.

To be honest, I have no idea.
However, what I can tell you is this is a one-man project. And it's a total conversion.
My guess is 1-1.5 years at this rate.

Yes, it's going to be a part of character creation. :D

To get you started:

The world is called Nirn, and it consists of several continents. The main one is Tamriel.
And TES4: Oblivion is happening in it's central province: Cyrodiil (inhabited by men, with roman-like culture).
The world is inhabited by all sort of creatures and races (men, elves, cat-like Khajiit and lizard-like Argonians).
There are good gods, the Aedra and the evil gods, the Daedra.

This mod is based on Shivering Isles, a parallel plane ruled by Sheogorath, the Daedric prince of madness.
It's being invaded by Jyggalag, the prince of Order and that's one hell of a realm. ;)

Played it so long ago. Might have to recap the shivering isle story stuff. If i remember correctly, it has two hugely varied environments a dark evil one and a floral jungly one. Are you planning on making both environments? Also what are the six factions as i only remember the lord of madness man who's name i can't spell? Or am i asking these questions far to early lol. Sorry if that is the case.

Yes, both Mania and Dementia will be included.
And you'll be forced to choose sides during character creation (which will highly impact your relations with lords and settlements).

The factions are:
- Court of Madness (includes Mania and Dementia)
- Forces of Order
- Grummites
- Heretics
- Zealots
- Apostles

Some of the factions will clearly be underdogs and will probably get annihilated first.

What or who are Grummites?

A race of frog-like primitive creatures living in the caves beneath the Isles.

They also slowly regenerate in water, so having a regenerations script (one already exist as OSP) tied to raining would be really neat... Similar to crossbows being less efective during the rain.
