Known Issues
Sometimes the music track changes whenever you enter a new cell
Exterior rendering is unoptimized (slow) and has no landscape yet
Character creation must be invoked via script instructions, the tutorial sequence at the beginning of the game isn´t fully working yet.
We have a rate crash bug releated to NPC-rendering.
You can pick up things and use load doors (doors that connect cells). Note that the aiming mechanism is only a placeholder. It lacks precision and causes problems in some cases (it will be replaced in the next version).

If you find any bugs/errors with the latest version of OpenMW, please submit a bug report on openmw.com or at the OpenMW forums.
