✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Clean, focused UI improvement—no bloat, just a better quest journal.
- Community-tested with 114 endorsements and nearly 3k downloads.
- Actively updated (July 2026), so it's likely compatible with current OpenMW builds.
⚠️ Cons
- Only works with OpenMW—if you're on the original Morrowind engine, this won't help.
- No screenshots or detailed feature list in the description, so you're flying blind until you try it.
- Small mod with a niche audience—don't expect a massive feature set.
For Morrowind players who've switched to OpenMW and want a more organized quest journal. If you're tired of scrolling through the vanilla journal, this is a no-brainer. Skip if you play on the original engine or want deeper quest-tracking features like map markers.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you're running OpenMW—this mod won't work with the original Morrowind executable.
- Drop the mod files into your OpenMW data directory, then enable it in the launcher's content list.
- If you're using a mod manager like MO2, add it as a separate mod and activate it in the OpenMW launcher.
