About this image

Modmapper is a script I wrote to quickly visualize mod overlap. As a simple tool it's fine.

But I also wanted to understand the larger landscape (heh) of Morrowind modding which has a decades-long history. So I made a custom version of the tool which attempts to pull in link data from Nexus and archive.org/MMH, can unzip archives and understands esp and esm files, then had it analyze thousands of esp and zip files. Some rar files. Even a few .ace files (remember those?) and .exe files I had to repack. It works... reasonably well? Since GitHub offers easy page setup and regeneration and is reasonably reliable, I put the map there. It currently tracks more than 5000 mods from Nexus and Morrowind Modding History (through archive.org) and provides download links for most of that content. It probably doesn't capture ALL landmass mods ever made, but it captures a lot of them. If you know of one or more that are obviously missing, let me know! (you can search through the mods using this page)

Let's hope that between Nexus and archive.org and the care of many individuals archiving content, the future of these mods representing thousands of hours of fan effort and ideas from the silly to the sublime is a durable one.
