Daggerblivion!

Post by Domicrow1 »

I am sure we all have heard of Morroblivion and if not look it up, its ZAMAZAFYING but i was curios is there any kind of Daggerblivion mod, something capable of playing daggerfall but with an oblivion engine + graphics? if not do any of you know of any plans to create such a thing?

From my understanding Daggerfall was made mostly to have dungeons randomly generated (I may have this confused with Arena), and it would be difficult to get Oblivion to do something like that, plus the engines are completely different, so I doubt that anyone could do it.

In answer to your question, there is no project like this at the moment, and I doubt there will ever be one like it. However, this thread may be of some interest to you.

As in literally impossible. The game engines are entirely different, even the operating systems are entirely different from one another. The only way to do this would be to rebuild Daggerfall from scratch in the Gamebyro engine, but even then it would be nothing like the original Daggerfall.

Yeah, if it were to occur, it would not be 'transferring' Daggerfall to Oblivion, but rather, 're-creating' Daggerfall in Oblivion's engine. And I don't see anyone having the patience to do that, when it would be very different, and there are already other new province mods going on that will probably be never finished due to the enormity of the task. Besides, people are bound to move onto Skyrim modding unless they already have a dedicated task like the TR team.
