Can't browse to select the game in SD card post Android 11 update. When selecting game files, SD card doesn't even show up.(confirmed that SD card indeed is working fine)

That issue is comes from Android 11 itself. Afaik A11 doesnt support the access of sd card via custom file browser (only stock android browser). Since openmw has their custom browser thats why you cant gain access to your sd card.

Can they get additional permission to access sd card like other custom browser(like that in zarchiver and other third party file managers?)

Wierd. Old OMW(not nightly) I had had path to morrowind selected which is in sd card. Although I can't manually select it again, it still works and I can play it. Screenshot_20210507-105708_OMW

Btw Android 11 has slow storage, I think it might be good to eventually move to scoped storage, if possible.

Workaround: If you have root, open: /data/data/is.xyz.omw_nightly/shared_prefs/is.xyz.omw_nightly_preferences.xml

and change "game_files" string to your sdcard's path. Example:<string name="game_files">/storage/extsdcard/Games/omw</string>
