This is a demonstration of my Morrowind Mod, "New Beast Bodies 3.0." It replaces the segmented Argonian and Khajiit bodies with smooth deforming ones with seamless textures.
Music is "Pirates of Oblivion" by John Revoredo which can be downloaded here: http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR01777/

This video was intended for people who are already familiar with Morrowind and were finding it through a link in a Morrowind forum post, but now that the thread has been archived and people are finding it through Youtube, I figured a FAQ might help.
Q. Why are the Argonians and Kajiit naked throughout this video?
A. My mod replaces the 3D model and texture that is used for the body of Argonians and Kanjii, but if they were wearing clothes then you couldn't see it because the clothes would cover it up. The video was intended to show people interested in downloading the mod how my bodies would look during various animations from various angles.
Q. OK, but why aren't they wearing underwear like they do in Oblivion?
A. Argonians and Kanjii did not wear underwear in the original Morrowind game, so I made my new bodies the same way. Check out these detailed comparison screen shots between the original Morrowind bodies and my new bodies:

Q. Are these the same 3D models that other modders used to replace all the other non beast-races in Morrowind with better looking versions in the Better Bodies mod?
A. At first I made completely custom models, but these weren't compatibile with the large array of modder-created clothing for Better Bodies. So by popular demand, I went back and re-did them to use Better Bodies as a base. So basically I started with models from the orignal game and Better Bodies and then combined them into one continuous mesh. This way there are no seams in the body, and the custom parts like tails and hands don't look "bolted on" as they did in some other people's mods.
Q. The Better Bodies mod for the other races of Morrowind has a mature version. Did you make a version of your mod like that?
A. Yes, but that's not something I could upload a video of to YouTube. You can find it on Planet Elder Scrolls if that's what you want. This video shows the clean version.

If you hold down the 3rd person view button then moving the mouse will rotate the camera around your character. To do some of the other shots I used the ToggleCollision console command to allow me to walk through the sky in 1st person.
