The Elder Scrolls Construction Set allows you to create, modify, and edit any data for use with Morrowind. It does it all - from building landscapes, towns, and dungeons to writing dialogue, creating characters, weapons, races, creatures, magic, etc. You'll be able to create your own adventures and other players will be able download them directly into their existing game. The entire system is built on a "plug-in" architecture. Each file created in the Construction Set is a modification to the world. When you play Morrowind, you select which files you wish to play with. A single plugin may contain a new character in a certain town that has a quest for you. Another plugin may simply be a new sword that is available. Plugins can change or add anything, and they will work within your current game. Plugins can even change how the game plays, with settings for everything from movement speeds to player level increases. The Elder Scrolls Construction Set also comes with its own scripting language. These scripts allow you to create new functionality for game objects that we at Bethesda had not envisioned. Extensive help files give tutorials on the best way to create adventures. Very early on the goal was create a role-playing operating system, more than a particular type of game, and The Elder Scrolls Construction Set is the main result of that thought process. You can change and grow the game, and trade these files online for a never-ending game experience. It's a very big step for Bethesda and the Elder Scrolls community. |
