OpenMW is a G.P.L.v3 game engine that aims to be compatible with The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind's assets. As it stands you can complete all of the main quest lines without issues. This release brings such exciting features as background cell loading and object shaders. You can view a complete change log on the projects website OpenMW.org or see the progress via the release videos for the engine and constructions set which are also on the projects website.
1The construction set is a program for modding and creating games for the engine.
Opinion: I'm quite excited about the future of this engine. Although any major improvements have been put off until the engine reaches 1.0.0, there's talk of what might come after such as V.R. and physically based rendering support.
