📋 About This Mod

DNGDR has apparently got the reputation over the years as being filled with nothing but "insta-death" traps. Nothing could be farther from the truth.

Is DNGDR hard? yes. but I tried very hard to balance Exploring/traps/fighting. Are there unsurvivable traps?  yes a couple but most are survivable or totally avoidable if you're on your toes.

******************************************************************************************************************************************************************

Bug fixes ... Some meshes changes. Works with Open Morrowind as of 0. 41

***************************************************************************************************************************************************************

This mod affects Dwemer ruins “Odrosal”,” Vemynal” & “Dagoth Ur” in Main Quest timeline, and it is my attempt to make the quest to find Kagrenac’s Tools and destroy Dagoth Ur a much more involved task.

You can expect to find much larger ruins to explore as well as traps, puzzles, and a completely new final battle with Dagoth Ur featuring a new end sequence. Never a dull moment. Oh, and did I mention traps. :)

Additionally, I made well over a 100 brand new custom meshes for this including a new corridor tile set!
