It became popular fast, which was good and bad. Which gives the entire mod a very haphazard and linear feel. But none of it was planned, and it was all uploaded piecemeal as soon as it was playable. Sala is very aware his mod has flaws, because he made it up as he went along. The central location is a player home in the waterways of a jungle canyon, but later on you get access to a skyship captained by a Khajiit pirate complete with terrible accent who ferries you to a tropical island ruin. Moonpath begins with a caravan trip from Falkreath, following the hidden byways of the Khajiit. I like being able to play it in a version of Skyrim that doesn't freak out when I alt-tab away from it. It's been updated for Skyrim Special Edition too, which is nice. It was his first mod and although it would be eclipsed by later ones with pro-level writing like Enderal and The Forgotten Cityit's still fun to go back to. I actually found out that quite a few notable modders were industry veterans as well. He did have one advantage, though-over 10 years of experience as a 3D artist and developer.
But no, modder Tomas Sala, who released Moonpath under the name "muppetpuppet", was able to quickly make multiple new locations, creatures, and fully voiced questlines solely using the Creation Kit. It was a particular boon to quest mods like Moonpath to Elsweyr, which appeared so suddenly people were convinced it had been in the works before the Creation Kit was released. Of course people made mods even without the Creation Kit, but it brought ambitious, sweeping changes within reach of anyone willing to dig through its wiki. Giants not big enough? Download the bigger giants mod. It's cute to look back on how we reported it at the time : "Not enough goats? Download the goat summoning mod. Back in when Bethesda's Creation Kit was released, the mod scene exploded. This is Moonpath to Elsweyr, one of the first quest mods ever made for Skyrim. I'm greeted by a muscular tiger, prowling around on all fours, who introduces himself with polite gravel and welcomes me to the home of the Khajiit. I've crossed a desert, forded a river, fought blue lizards and green spiders, and finally made it to Elsweyr.
