You can travel around tamriel, collect items, etc. But many major features like combat, and AI have not been implemented yet. You should join us and help make it playable!

Hello everyone !
The major news for this update comes via Mark (creator of the Crystal Scrolls) : he nearly finished multiple esp/esm support! There are numerous problems, but things are progressing : you'll soon be able to travel to Solstheim!
garvek, our new developer who is also part of the dugeonhack project, started working on cmake fixes and making OpenMW compile with MSVC. The DungeonHack team is in the process of deciding whether to help OpenMW reach basic functionality and then base DungeonHack off our engine. Sounds good to me!
zini after last week of bugfixes and checking if features from merged branches were working, he has returned to working on the script implementation. Excellent!
jhooks1 is continuing work on the physics system. He fixed a bug that allowed players to run up the walls if their speed was high enough. Unfortunately his work on enabling animations through Ogr3d's system still can't handle robes and some creatures. If someone is an expert in animations then you're help is welcomed on our forums.
Gentoo overlay for OpenMW has reached alpha status and awaits testing. Big thanks (if it's working correctly) to edmondo.
Gus added the setangle and setscale instructions but there is still much to be done before his branch is merged into the master.
Scrawl has been working his wonders (namely by finishing the Spell window and alchemy windows). He also changed the color of the water to look less tropical and more like in vanilla Morrowind.
Lurkers of the irc channel are reporting that he mentioned:
Ho, and two more developers pvdk and k1ll are active again :)
Finally, we are looking for someone who knows QT to start work on developing a replacement to Bethesda's Construction Kit for OpenMW. If you fit the bill it would be a huge help to the project. Any computer science or game design students out there with free time this summer?

| I have started rewriting the shader system to allow GLSL. I am a making sort of a library out of it, it will be similar to ogre RTShaderSystem but much better. Then the user can put in a settings file which shader language he wants :P |
