[Dead Link] Ebonhart Orphanage

[korgi]

Hello everyone! I picked up a copy of Morrowind the other day, as it was on sale over at steam for 8 bucks, and it was my all time favorite game when growing up! The first thing I did was check and see which Child mods we're available, as I always found that to be an integral piece of immersion missing from the game, and plus I will usually prefer playing as a child/teen race above all else in any game. I happened upon the awesome "Children of Morrowind" and "Playable Children" mods here and could not be happier, I love that I can now play as a teen and still basically use every vanilla armor/clothing peice in the game...and that there are now kids just wandering around the various cities doing there own thing so very well done on that! I saw a link here as well to another mod for COM called "Ebonhart Orphanage", however it would appear that the site wich hosted it no longer exists. A google search for this mod also comes up with nothing but links to sites that no longer exist. I was wondering if it could be either reuploaded here, or to another site as I would very much like to try it out. Also, any other adoption mods that may exist out there would be very helpful. Thanks in advance!

PES died a few years ago, taking any exclusive downloads with them. Found a thread from 2011 where the author said he was pulling the mod because some of the music used was not public domain; people recommended alternate music but nothing to his liking.

Hopefully Emma has better news.

Thanks for the response! A friend did some digging as well and actually managed to find the Ebonhart Orphanage mod posted over on a site called modhistory.com, here is the link. Maybe it can be updated on the main page here as well since the one pointing to Planet Eldercrolls is dead and buried for years. I installed the mod, activated the .esp, and upon loading the game I get an error on the main menu "Global Variable "spot-fw" not found for dialouge type Topic info "empty". However, I am able to access the orphanage, and adopt a child just fine with no apparent issues. Is this something to be concerned about?

Yes We tried to grab as many of the mods that were still available on PES at the time of their closing for preservation on Mod History's Morrowind section. We did manage to collect every mod that was hosted there, so if you wanted a mod that was on PES, chances are you'll find them on Mod History.

Through this thread I've just found the mw mod history website.  I really did think that when Planet Elder Scrolls died that all the wonderful mods I used to play had gone forever.  My heartfelt thanks to everyone who was involved in rescuing all these wonderful mods.  


Is it just me or does it seem that Morrowind encouraged and inspired a great span of imagination in those who created mods for the game as compared with the Elder Scrolls games that followed afterwards.  I know with Oblivion which I've been playing the most lately the current crop of mods that seem to get posted on Nexus are largely forgettable and mostly in bad taste if not actually disgustingly pornographic.
