Really looking forward to this! I don't know if they've published a target release date before, but if development has reached a point where the end is visible, that seems like a massive milestone in and of itself.

If you have Discord they have a channel where they post regular updates. It makes me so excited and it is so far away... I wish I had the skills to help.

Can you share the Discord link please?

Holy hell, this is still a thing and isn't out yet? I remember hearing about this years ago.

Wow that video really gives an idea of the scale of the task. They seem to be recreating it all from scratch - Every single location from oblivion with all the textures. From what i recall, oblivion's map was way bigger than skyrim's.

Yup! It's an even bigger task since they have to remake every single model by hand for legal reasons (can't redistribute original models and textures, etc). I didn't even realize how large Oblivion's map was in comparison to Skyrim until they broke it down here. :O

Oh, I hope this (eventually) works with Skyrim VR!

What tools are the team using? What engine?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Skyrim's Creation Engine (and a bunch of supplementary tools, of course)

Wow that’s amazing.
