📋 About This Mod
Timescale6
Summary
This plugin sets the timescale global variable to 6 (one minute of real time equals six minutes of in-game time) instead of the vanilla value of 30. The result is that time passes five times slower in-game.
It also sets the fTravelTimeMult GMST to 80,000 from the vanilla 16,000. This causes fast travel to take about 1/5 the time as in vanilla. (Not exactly 1/5, unfortunately, as travel time can only be an integer number of hours. The boat trip from Ebonheart to Sadrith Mora will now take two hours rather than 11.)
Installation
Use a mod management tool such as Wrye Mash, or just copy the .esp file to your Data Files directory, and select the plugin in the Morrowind Launcher.
Version History

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Does exactly what it says—no bloat, just a clean timescale change.
- Perfect for immersion lovers who want realistic day/night cycles.
- Lightweight and unlikely to conflict with other mods since it only changes one variable.
⚠️ Cons
- Only 42 endorsements—small user base, so less community testing.
- Last updated in 2020—might be outdated for the latest Skyrim version, though timescale is a core variable.
- No extra features like adjustable timescale or MCM—if you want flexibility, look elsewhere.
For Skyrim players who find the default 30 timescale too fast and want a more relaxed, realistic pace. Great for roleplayers and builders who want to enjoy the scenery without the sun racing across the sky. Skip if you prefer fast-paced gameplay or want a customizable timescale mod.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place the mod in your load order after any mods that might alter timescale, like survival mods.
- If you're using a mod manager, just download and activate—no manual file placement needed.
- Test the timescale by waiting in-game for an hour and checking the clock—should take 10 real minutes.
