    They’ve allowed the Skywind and Skyblivion projects to continue, under the assumption you’ll need to own the previous games in order to run the mod.

      I thought both of those projects were explicitly not using files and models from the original games, but were instead recreating the content.

        They are but I heard they have to do a check to make sure you have them in your library or something. It’s been a couple of years and I’m pulling from memory.

          Yeah, something like Enderal is similar in this respect, it doesn’t use any assets from the original game as far as I’m aware but you still need Skyrim installed to run it.
