Animated Morrowind Menu (Red Mountain)

Update: New version is here:

An experiment in trying to change the static Morowind title screen with something a little more... alive. And here it is!

The concept was to fade from red into this blight storm scene, and have the Morrowind logo be "uncovered" or come out from behind the ash clouds, but this is just a preliminary test. Just work with me, here! It also needs some ash storm sounds.

It turned out a little darker than original from the conversion. It also hangs for just a second when it changes to the menu. I tried every codec I had to find one that works, and the only one that DID was x264.

Unfortunately, YouTube lowered the quality quite a bit. To see it best, add "&fmt=35" to the URL.

The original idea came from starwarsguy9875 from the Bethesda forums. The thread can be found here:

This little trick was made possible by Morrowind Graphics Extender, NZdawghaus' Splash Resources pack, starwarsguy's and Timeslip's time and patience, and, I don't know, the power of friendship.
