I started by compacting the list of parameters on the Morrowind Screenshots website. Left — before, right — after. I’m worried that the project has been on autopilot for a couple of months, without new screenshots. I need to fix this.

I had a creative vacation. But not a vacation for creativity, but rather a vacation from creativity. That is, if you call my pet projects creativity. It’s just that at some point I felt that I needed to take a break and return to everything later, with a fresh head. And now I feel that it’s time to continue.
Once upon a time, I was very impressed by the performance of the song “Blood Type” by the Korean band YB (Yoon Do Hyun Band). Here is a completely different sound, different vocal presentation, the text is in Korean, but this version is as beautiful as the original.

The angle and the moment of time change everything. Vivec brings rain. Vivec raises the sun. Vivec holds Baar Dau. Vivec is confused. And I’m sure these are not all the meanings that can be given to this statue in a shot.
There is a AI that can zoom in on a piece of an image, much like forensic scientists in Hollywood movies zoom in on a surveillance camera image to any infinite resolution. I decided to check how AI would zoom in on the statue of Saint Delyn from a recent shot. There is an old theory that Lenin is a mushroom. Now we know that Delyn is a mushroom too.
old theoryI taught Morrowind Screenshots to work with stories in Telegram. I checked the auto-post on this channel, and it worked. However, boosts and a Premium subscription were really needed here. In the future, we will see if it is worth it. In general, why do I bother with stories so much? Oddly enough, this is due to septims – small coins with the image of the Emperor. Septims appear on the site for all posts that are published in the project channels. The idea is that everything that falls into the Posts or Extras sections should be published and get its own septim. But some of the planned types of posts from the Extras section are not very suitable for the usual feed, and they need to be published somehow. The format of stories for them – just right.
I implemented and tested the auto-posting of stories from Morrowind Screenshots to VK. It wasn’t difficult. I’m not sure that anyone will see them there, but it will be possible to avoid overloading the main feed with secondary content. It seems that Telegram stories will be more difficult. Here, either a Premium subscription is required for their publication, or the channel needs to collect votes. Please help me check how it works, using this channel as an example: https://t.me/boost/dhlight
I was impressed by the fresh tech demo of The Witcher 4 and Unreal Engine 5.6. Among the highlights: Ciri pushed a man with a box of apples, and they scattered, the merchant and the buyer at the market very cleverly handled the fish, the one-legged man naturally limped on a crutch, and one man was thrown into a puddle, and the puddle made a splash. It was interesting to see how the new 3D/voxel vegetation works. It looks very natural. Maybe I just rarely watch this, or maybe it’s really a new level of graphics, animation and interactivity. Now the question is what of this is scripted, what will remain in the game, and what Bethesda has prepared for us in response to all this.

Today I tested a new algorithm for Morrowind Screenshots, which generates pictures from posts just like this. I want to use it as a single form for publishing stories in the project channels. The first story of this kind was posted on Instagram today. All that remains is to teach the project to automatically publish stories in other profiles.
All automation for Morrowind Screenshots was fixed at the end of last week, and everything has been working properly for a couple of days now. Posts are posted to all profiles, the site is updated like clockwork. Along with this, I’ve got an attitude to make new shots. There should be a lot more of it now.
These shots are separated by only a couple of minutes. First, a completely black Masser emerged from the clouds, hovering over Vivec with its bulk. Wow! Then it appeared clearer, gained color and hovered over the statue of St. Delyn, keeping him company. Years go by, and Morrowind is still able to amaze with its graphics.
Tenhi has always been perceived as a company of forest spirits wandering through the dense Finnish forests and singing about what they see. For the most part, this is a mysterious studio project, but they also have live performances. This video captures one of their rarest performances, but it seems that no one in the hall appreciates it. Stop making noise, this is a historic event!
This videoLast year, I created the Morrowind Screenshots website and automated the posting of screenshots across the project’s channels. This allowed me to spend less time on its preparation and publication, and more time on the creative part. And it really helped to plan the release of posts in advance when I wasn’t online at the right time. Now these well-established systems are ceasing to function one after another. The site continues to update only once in ten times, despite efforts to fix the problem. Now Instagram and Telegram also periodically and unpredictably crash. So far, only VK has not failed. I continue to deal with the causes, and for now I do part of the work manually. Of course, this situation spoils the development plans a little, but in general, it is a great experience of how to support a project from so many related parts.
Sometimes I remember this funny comment to my interview about Morrowind Screenshots, which was published last year. There is a grain of truth in every joke. Do you know what insanity is? Insanity is when you photograph Morrowind for 15 years in a row, posting a new screenshot online every day!
Recently, the voice assistant wished me a good morning and turned on All’s Well from the Oblivion soundtrack, announcing that flowers grow well in the garden to this music. I guess I agree with him.
