There is absolutely nothing wrong with asking.

If you'd like, I'd volunteer to write a letter myself.

Passion is what drives companies. Passion is what fuels gamers. Passion is what brings a product to completion and out to market. Games are really terrible pieces of software to make. I really do want to make my own company someday, and if someone asked, I'd at least tell them how to do it, even if I felt uncomfortable giving them code.

As for more content for Morrowind? I'd rather ask them to write more dialogue and systems for Skyrim.

Sure, write up a letter intended for developers or a more formal letter for Bethesda. Send me a pm.

I agree that its a long shot that Bethesda would give us the formulas, but you never know.

Bethesda is probably not going to make any more content for Morrowind, regardless of anything OpenMW accomplishes. But hopefully it will benefit them enough to remember that Morrowind is much loved even if the world has largely forgotten about it in favor of Elderscrolls Online.

I like your letter, but it's polluted by a lot of wishful thinking that drowns out the request for help with the equations.

I agree, something like this is best kept concise and to the point. Ideally a single point.

Any ideas of how we could get their attention?

Send them a bomb and say that We will send another one if we won't get the formulas? ;-)

Finally a really good idea. Add also that we will send another two if we do not get Skyrim without DRM in less than 1 year. ;)

Eh... no. Money. At least for companies. About fueling games, there are indeed few games fueled by love. But nothing you can get in Steam.

Gstaff replied at Bethsoft forums:
Unfortunately, this is not something that we can do.

Good luck to you guys!
