📋 About This Mod

Sol's Daggerfall Dungeon Map

For OpenMW 0. 48. 0+

You commune with Azura to witness Prophecy, projecting your conciousness through the Dream Sleeve to see the lay of the Now. Be careful, for time will not pause while you are away from your body, and all tools come with a cost. Weakening your connection to mortality will take its toll.

Note: This mod requires your in game post-processing to be enabled.

This can be paired seamlessly with my other OpenMW 0. 48+ Lua mods, but probably won't be included in my full Timed Directional Combat modpack. It's more of a standalone thing. That being said, I totally also recommend the modpack.

Hit "Ready Spell" + "Activate" simultaneously, and you'll trigger free cam mode. Jump to move up, sneak to move down. Hit the same keybind to end it early. Camera speed scales with your speed. Every 10 seconds, your health, magicka, and fatigue will be drained based on your Mysticism, Willpower, and Endurance, respectively. Train up the skill and attributes to reduce the drain effect. If your magicka or fatigue run out, the effect will end early. If your health runs out, you will die.

Unzip the mod subdirectory wherever you put your mods, or on a datapath listed in openmw.cfg (default Windows location C:\Users\...\Documents\My Games\OpenMW), and check the checkbox in OpenMW Launcher > Data Files > modNameHere.omwscripts

I hope there aren't any.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Unique concept—turns dungeon crawling into a strategic top-down experience.
  • Configurable, so you can tweak it to your playstyle.
  • Decent traction for a niche mod (36 endorsements, 3.8k downloads).

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated May 2025—might not work with the latest OpenMW builds.
  • The 'sorta balanced' and 'sorta lore-friendly' wording suggests it's not fully polished.
🎯 Is This For You?
For OpenMW players who want a fresh way to navigate dungeons, especially those who enjoy a more tactical view. If you're a purist who wants strict lore adherence, this might not be your cup of tea. Skip if you prefer traditional first-person exploration.
📦 Install:Medium· 5-10 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you're using OpenMW with Lua support enabled—this mod won't work on vanilla Morrowind.
  • Check the mod's config file to adjust the free cam speed and toggle key to your liking.
  • Test the mod in a simple dungeon first to get used to the astral projection view before tackling complex ones.
