I voted no because I would like to play the game sooner rather than much later.

my little poll has been answered with a no time or so comment, please lock it at the next opprotunity at your convience.

Locked per the thread starter's request.

 

I wish the game could be more mod friendly. But there's a ton of tools that we use in the nightly build and some of them we don't have the right to even give out. The data processing pipeline everything goes through to make it into the game is pretty complex.

 

Right now the nightly builds are taking somewhere around 9 hours to complete. Considering only about 30 minutes of that is needed for compiling the code, that's about 8.5 hours of data crunching to create the build. The engine just isn't set up properly for easy modding, unfortunately.

 

I don't mind answering questions about formats and such after it's released if I can, but I don't know how helpful that will be in the end anyway. I've seen tools around for modding just about everything but the models in KotOR, so there's room for some modding options available. But there'll just be no official tools released from our end.
