Can I mod OpenMW on android?

Post by Mrzombieghost2 »

The openmw launcher on android doesnt have a "current content list" or "data files tab" or chexkboxes where you can activate the mods. How do I activate the mods if I dont have those?

The Android port is still in an early Alpha state, and not all features are accessible yet.

[Copied this from another post of mine]

I managed to install a couple of mods: copy the esp/esm files in your data directory, then open OpenMW and set this as 'custom command line arguments'
--content Morrowind.esm Tribunal.esm Bloodmoon.esm <your mods.esm>
Spaces or strange characters may cause trouble.

just the instructions with .esp instead of .esm, that should work.

Not sure if still relevant to the topic but the mod called swift casting, I belive OpenMW itself has this as an option, can it be used in OpenMW for Android?

Again thanks for your replies (I am stealing this post :D )

Anyone still need help with this, I've done extensive tests, and have found both a consistent, as well as relatively painless (I'll be it tedious for a large amount of mods) for installing mods, would love to discuss this topic with everyone, and help out anyone who needs it, I also have learned about alot of mod workarounds for things like Vurts, as well the performance draining but beautiful Morrowind Overhaul mod that would normally require a PC due to the only download being.exe
