MWSE vs Venice Unleashed

MWSE adds scripting capabilities to The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind beyond those provided by the game's Construction Set. It gives mod authors ways to add features or behavior that would otherwise be impractical or impossible. From version 2.1, modifications can use Lua for event-driven behavior, with hooks for events such as level-ups, collisions and world activations. MWSE exposes APIs through Lua 5.1, with extensions from Lua 5.2 and Lua 5.3. Mods are not sandboxed, so they can include packaged Lua modules and native code. Included patches raise the mod limit from 256 to 1024, and crash dumps and logs help diagnose mod problems. MWSE is free software under the GNU General Public License and comes with no warranty. It supports Windows and Linux through Wine. Installation requires the x86 Visual Studio 2022 Redistributable, Morrowind Code Patch and Morrowind Graphic Extender XE. MGE XE bundles MWSE-Update.exe, which downloads the latest automated build. The project directs scripting advice and discussion to the Morrowind Modding Community Discord.

Venice Unleashed is a free community modding and improvement framework for Battlefield 3. It supports gameplay adjustments, new game modes, and new maps, with a spectating system for filming or competitions. Players can host private dedicated servers on their own machines and configure 60Hz or 120Hz tickrates. Other settings include suppression tuning and disabling the blue tint. Using the framework requires a legitimate, licensed, up-to-date Battlefield 3 installation; servers running downloadable-content material also require that DLC. At first login, users create a VU account and link an Origin account for ownership verification. VU runs separately from vanilla Battlefield 3, uses its own servers, and does not modify game files. Profiles are separate from Battlelog, and progression does not carry over because everything is unlocked by default. The client targets Windows, while Linux dedicated servers can run through Wine.
