Mods?

[armaggedin]

Any idea if mods will become a possiblity with this game? The old C&C mods and conversions were a huge deal for me.

Yes it will

You can already add your own unit voices, there will probably be more mod support in the future, because Petroglyph seems always pretty excited about community ideas and content.

Mike.nl's Mod Tools: MEG Editor supports 8-Bit Armies!
Hi everyone,

Mike.nl here, known from the old Petroglyph forums and the unofficial mod tools for Petroglyph's previous games.

I've updated my Mega File Editor today with support for 8-Bit Armies, so now you modders can open up the CONFIG.MEG as well and edit files to your heart's content.

(!!! IMPORTANT: Make a copy before you start editing it !!!)

Get the editor from my site: http://modtools.petrolution.net/tools/MegEditor

After an initial test it seems that the game DOES pick up changes to CONFIG.MEG; I've managed to reduce a unit's cost down to 1. Of course, I doubt this works for multiplayer matches.

It's not a map editor, or model exporter, but it's a start!

Have fun modding!

The problem is we need more tools to work with some of the game files, like .bui files or .alo files.

True, its awesome to hear thats in the works at least, but appreciate the link to the config editor! And I'll keep up on that topic definitely.

Hey armaggedin,

Well we are definately working towards opening up the game for modders, slowly but surely

Also, seems like a lot of this info should end up on the community wiki http://8bitarmies.wikia.com/wiki/Renegades at one point...

I just hope there will be a Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge remake mod in the future for this game...

:D
