OpenMW the open source engine to play Morrowind on Linux has a brand new version finally includes a much needed save/load feature. The save feature is still in its infancy though and a lot of things aren't saved with it.
This is why I love open source because things like this happen, maybe with this in the future I could finally complete Morrowind.
Changelog:
Anyone tried it? I wonder how far in reality from a stable release it is? Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Quoting: commodore256Quoting: HeimdallI said more than likely it's 18 months. That's a year and a half, not this year September 2015 and I'm fairly confident that OpenMW will reach 1.0 by March 2016.Quoting: commodore256Judging by the rate of progress, I estimate it well reach 1.0 in less than two years. (more than likely, 18 months) After that, I would love to see an OpenOblivion or an OpenCW for Capital Wasteland (Fallout 3) and maybe an OpenNV for New Vegas.The developers disagree. Many have stated that they expect 1.0 before the end of this year. Given current development progress, I am almost certain they are right.
All I'm saying is that given what they have left to do, unless they have a huge drop off in development over the next year, they will finish this year.
They just added in workable ranged combat for the player character in the most recent Git snapshots. They really are very close. Now it is mainly optimization and bug squashing (other than getting the save/load feature finished).

@Liamdawe: Thanks for updating this site with news about our update, all help is welcome!
@commodore256 and Heimdall: I'm no developer, so don't expect any release dates, but for some more information about our progress, check out the roadmap: https://bugs.openmw.org/projects/openmw/roadmap. If we are able to make as much progress as last year, OpenMW v1.0 won't be too far away. There is still a lot to do about the OpenCS but the team has always agreed that both don't have to be finished (meaning v1.0) at the same time.
