LE Skyrim-to-morrowind backwards compatibility?

[DRPLtShisno11]

Basically, a friend of mine wants me to reverse-port a skyrim model into morrowind, as they're running it off of a shitty laptop. Is this even remotely possible?

 

The model in question.:

It should be possible, but you'd have to do a ton of fiddling with both the mesh and the textures. The computer you're running the game on doesn't have as much to do with it as the capabilities of Morrowind itself; the game was never designed for the number of polygons and whatnot a mesh for Skyrim would have. I suggest you ask the people on the Morrowind boards what the requirements are and how to go about stripping all of Skyrim's extras from the mesh. More importantly, you should probably ask the author of that mod whether he or she is even okay with what you're up to, since the mesh you're trying to alter technically belongs to them.

Thanks for the information, hopefully I can put this to good use.

It would probably be easyer to recreate the meshes than trying to port them to morrowind, as it uses a different system (eg has seperate slots for legs, torso,..., youi can even wear robes over some armours).

Permission from the mod-author is allways a good thing.
