📋 About This Mod
Waters of Morrowind
This Mod reworks, and overhauls the current Inner sea floor that you can cross via Vvardenfell to TR's Mainland, some of you may or may not know this but! One dive under the waves and you'll quickly come to realize that not much is going on and its so flat and shallow in most places..
This mod changes that, By making the sea floor deeper, more of a marvel to explore and get around, from sunken Dunmer Strongholds, too Dreugh hives that lurk in wait, to sea man that was crushed by storms, to even pirates! Many thing lay in wait for you down at Davy Jones locker.. (Sorry couldn't help myself with that one :D)
You'll find much loot and other stuff lost to time and the hands of mortals, But you aren't alone!, An Argonian treasure hunter has set up a tavern south of Firewatch, A place for stories and trade, most things will come in handy for you when others, Not so much. Plus hes a good vendor for selling treasure you find down in the depths.
Future Plans? I would definitely love to add more underwater caves and grotto's as well as making a start on the Western areas of the TR_Preview side of the inner sea, but for now I'm just going to sit back and do patches and fixes until the next TR update drops, also some thing to note, when exploring in the South-East corner you'll notice a change but not so detailed area, this is due to the close approaching relocation of Island of Gorne.
Non TR Dependent Version
Don't have Tamriel Rebuilt? No problem. Head to the optional files, for that version is the non TR dependent version of Waters of Morrowind, which know longer requires the TR_Mainland master. perfect for all our vanilla morrowinders that don't have Tamriel Rebuilt installed... But will still require TR_Data. - All credit goes to a modder named (VvardenStormSage) for making this happen.
