Airinn Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 This is more of an open idea for modders rather than a request but here goes. Not sure if this has been done, but I've been searching TESnexus and can't find it on there (the closest I've seen is a Hammerfell location).Basically I've recently given Daggerfall a play (though using DOSbox is proving rather problematic from time to time) and while I'm enjoying the game thoroughly I can't help but wonder if anybody has ever had any plan to recreate the game in Oblivion as a new location mod? I think it would work out quite nicely. Daggerfall seems to have a pretty good story, great dungeons and a nice (but a little blocky and flat) world to explore.As I said, this may have already been done and may just be hiding from me. If it's not been done I think it would prove pretty successful among fans of Daggerfall and it would be great to see some life breathed into this DOS classic.

diosoth Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 An entire remake of that game would probably take a team of people several years, if they kept the original size of the map intact. Daggerfall was done in "real" scale with no compression. Morrowind and Oblivion are highly compressed compared to how big they're supposed to be. It's why you can walk from the east to the west in minutes, instead of days. Now if you cut the land mass down and kept in only the essential towns, dungeons and NPCs I suppose it could be done, seeing as much of Daggerfall is literally just there but can be ignored. The only solid mod I know of is Cybiades, which recreates 1 tiny island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
