The OpenMW team is proud to announce the release of version 0.29.0! This release includes the first implementation of the Save/Load feature, which catapults OpenMW closer to being completely playable. Please bear in mind that the save file format is not yet finalized and we cannot guarantee forward compatibility of save files until OpenMW 1.0. Other new features include more combat AI, blocking, area magic, and disease. OpenMW is becoming a hazardous place to be!
