Modder Contributing Again to Dark Souls: Introducing a Fascinating Modification - "Transferring Morrowind to Elden Ring"

In an extraordinary feat of community modding, YouTuber and modder InfernoPlus is recreating the iconic fantasy world of Morrowind in the Elden Ring game engine. The project, which has been in the works for some time, is not yet complete, but InfernoPlus estimates it to be about halfway done.

InfernoPlus, known for creating outlandish mods such as integrating iconic Halo weapons into Dark Souls: Remastered, first targeted the Dark Souls 1 engine for this project. However, they found that the engine could not handle the density of the Morrowind landscape. The move to Elden Ring was easier due to advancements in community modding for the RPG.

The video showcases Elden Ring's third-person run animation in Morrowind's rebuilt landscape. At the moment, the world in the video is devoid of actual gameplay, according to InfernoPlus.

The idea for the Elden Ring film was brought to life by Alex Garland, the writer of the 160-page screenplay. Garland wrote the script on spec to win over game creator Hidetaka Miyazaki. The project was then ported to Dark Souls 3, but it just barely fit within the world-loading restrictions.

InfernoPlus has also released a Dark Souls mod that recreated entire Halo multiplayer maps and environments. Elden Ring, considered a better game than Dark Souls 3 by InfernoPlus, provides a more suitable platform for the Morrowind recreation.

The author of the Elden Ring film's screenplay, written to convince the game creator Hidetaka Miyazaki, is Alex Garland. This project is just one example of the incredible work being done by the Elden Ring modding community.

Stay tuned for updates on InfernoPlus's Morrowind in Elden Ring project. The video titled 'I ported Morrowind to Elden Ring' gives a glimpse into the progress made so far.
