The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind Rebirth 6.6 Out Now – Changelog Revealed

I’m a big fan of the Elder Scrolls games, especially the older ones. Sure Skyrim was great, but I got bored of it after a mere few hundred hours. With Oblivion I clocked over three thousand hours, and Morrowind was not far behind that. So any excuse to go back and replace the more exciting and dynamic older titles is good for me! Now modder trancemaster_1988 has released version 6.6 of the legendary Rebirth Mod for The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind.

While this mod has been out for a while, the updates just keep on rolling out, and version 6.6 adds plenty of quality-of-life improvements, bug fixes and more, as you can see from the extensive changelog below! This mod already takes the iconic Bethesda RPG and completely overhauls it. If you’re planning on replaying this classic, or even if you want to play it for the first time, it’s well worth checking out.

“Hey guys! The main aim of this update has been to fix bugs, add quality of life fixes and general polish. Obviously it wouldn’t be a proper update without some new stuff too. Have fun, and do not hesitate to contact me in case you have any feedback or bugs to report.” – trancemaster_1988

* Fixed an issue where entering Ranosa Gilvayn’s shop in Suran would place the player in an odd position, facing away from the merchant.

* Fixed an issue where a chest in Bensamsi had a trap effect which can’t be used by the game, causing either a crash or a warning message.
