TOPIC HAS BEEN ANSWERED.

[EntityofDesire]

EDIT:

HOLY COW, the developers indirectly responded to this topic (as linked by various gaming sites) and changed direction not just for modding but for denovu too!

THAT is the power of community and I'm grateful for everyone that contributed and added their voices so the developers could understand what we want and how to make this game successful within the community and its long term engagement.

It was NEVER about fighting between ourselves or bashing the game as I've said again and again, but bringing awareness to community concerns to developers. It worked!

Thank you everyone and thank you developers for listening! Lets keep them accountable now and make a great game/community together!

SECOND EDIT:

CLEARLY NOBODY READ the updates and kept responding to the headline. The original post was out of concern, the devs responded before release. The issue is no longer an issue.

I have updated the topic and removed the original post with the update only.

thank you all for supporting the concern and getting devs attention. The game is fully or will be moddable now according to devs. That is all we wanted. Thank you again to them.

(for those interested my original post, PART of it can be seen quoted in reply #38 in this thread)

so you post a link to a video of someone having problems modding a demo of a game that has not come out yet, and this must mean that there will be no game play mods allowed right? give me a break

The video is proving the harmful program Denuvo is in the game, which also proves the devs are lying by omission, violating Steam's TOS, and unfriendly to modders.

it proves that Denuvo, a system to prevent people from cheating in multi-player games, is in the demo, it doesn't prove that game play mods will not be allowed in the actual game

[Kegfarms]

Illegal mods? Who's going to arrest you over it?

[Emma_Z]

thats ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ insane, denuvo and this ♥♥♥♥? im removing this from my wishlist

[IronHack]

Well if player content mods are not allowed I'm not buying this, the game will get stall after one play through.

You're confusing completely different things.
To prevent cheating in multiplayer games, there is an anti-cheat, which is not here, although given what the developers are doing lately, I would not talk about it so early and without proof, I think you'll understand me =)
But here is used anti-tamper protection (denuvo anti-tamper), which, and protects the game from manipulation of files (for example, so that could not do the same mods or cheats), and also from reverse-engineering, so that it did not crack.

P.S: If you don't believe anyone in this thread, I ask you to follow this link and see how Denuvo “helps” developers to fight their honest customers, and in particular the loyal community that could support their game for many years. And btw, I'm talking about any game with denuvo protection, not just InZOI.

Well I think the problem is people dont realize that a mod that allows nudity or wickedwhims behavior is legally threatening to Krafton. They can get in serious trouble in korea and will be prosecuted by Federal government if t hey are found to have made a product that facilitates sex or nudity.

I dont think people are even aware of korean laws in this sense.

no US citzen is being extradited to Korea over mods in Trumps America get real

It is NOT Trump's America. In four years, Trump will be gone. America belongs to the United States Citizens. We do not live in a dictatorship, even though Trump thinks he is a dictator.

The one "play through" is however long it takes you before you get bored.

We get it youre an optimist

Denuvo will be removed. There is announcement in that regard. Also they plan to support model imports from Maya/Blender and other 3d tools.

There have to be people from South Korea roaming around here. Or expats currently living there. Maybe even modders. Would be awesome, if one of you could explain, what the actual legal framework really looks like for a company like Krafton.
I mean, are there actually types of content, they'd have to actively search for in game files, in order to remove it?

You're going to actually need a lawyer versed in South Korean and international laws to explain that thoroughly. Coz regular people have different views on how to read all that lawyer jargon(sadly my lawyer is not versed in South Korean laws).

I highly doubt they have any control when it comes to any game changing or slotty mods coming their way. It's an obvious thing when a game comes to PC, expect mods and even the wild slotty ones. It's a wild wild west in the PC modding community.

There is a link along the bottom of the blog about a steam community forum post (linked right to the OP and this thread).

Another new famous face on these forums.

i dont see what's OP talking about.
"Certain content provided by the Company includes elements that you are not permitted to modify or alter at your discretion (“Non-Modifiable Content”). You are prohibited from making any modifications, whether in whole or in part, to such content."

it clearly states CERTAIN content. not the whole game. so whats the problem?

THis is an offline game with optional online gameplay, no dev would care about mods. You can use whatever you want, what are you on about?

Oh sweet summer child. This is not an offline game. Denuvo is always online. If it cant authenticate your game files, it closes the game. You cannot play the InZoi demo without an internet connection.

You are welcome. If it wasnt for us raising our voices, you would've been stuck with Denuvo.
