"Deliver signed papers to Bleeding Tree of Zenithar."
- Marorim the KnightEvery 5 minutes the game sends a log of the current state to the server. Each log records the Walker's location, chat commands, and more. Quests are only checked and updated when a new log arrives.
Send a chat command during the quest window (from when the quest starts until the log that completes it). If your command appears in one of those logs, you’re credited.
When a log matches the quest’s target POI, the quest is marked completed, all qualifying users are awarded, and a new quest immediately begins.

"The characters in the game do walk a little bit faster than a real human, but walking from one end of the continent to the other would be equivalent to really walking the length of Great Britain."
- Bruce Nesmith, Daggerfall's design leader From Trent Ward's Gamespot Daggerfall Preview, May 1, 1996
The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall was released in September 1996 and features one of the largest game worlds ever created. Daggerwalk is a collection of technologies that live-streams a bot endlessly walking through the massive Iliac Bay. Viewers can interact with the game by typing commands into the chat and The Walker's progress can be viewed on this website.
A humble small form factor Dell Optiplex PC runs Daggerwalk autonomously. It's programmed to boot up at a certain time each day, run the Daggerwalk scripts, and shut back down again on a timer. It handles the game's graphics, streaming, and running the Twitch bot comfortably - keeping a cool temperature for a stable operation many hours per day.
Dumps current game state data to a local JSON file.
Daggerfall Unity comes with Auto-Run out of the box, but not Auto-Walk.
Adds console commands to play songs on command as well as endlessly shuffle.
Alters the timescale dynamically - 1 hour days, 6 minute nights.
To automate the game first a Python script launches Daggerfall Unity, waits for the game to load, enters a few console commands like "god mode," and starts walking. Next it launches OBS which is set up to begin streaming immediately. Finally the Twitch bot starts up, handling input from chat and making requests to the kershner.org web server.
Daggerwalk's backend is built into a larger Django monolith site. This page uses basic HTML, JavaScript, and SASS. The map images were taken directly from the game.
