We've heard a few times from the dev's how hard it would be to create new art assets specifically for the environment, but I wondered if it would be possible to access the texture maps or any of the art assets to modify them in a way to enhance them more? Specifically if I wanted to do paint over's of any area or make shadows on clothing or character assets pop more. Or maybe I want to make blood stains on a weapon instead of them looking shiny for example. Could I gain access to those files? I have a few ideas for things to do to make environment's gain the extra bit of detail that the art team may not have had time to do and I don't know how open the tech will be so we can mod those, or maybe create our own textures for new armor sets or weapons?

You can pull the files out, but you can't put them back in as of yet. They went with sharedassets instead of assetbundles for the levels, which is not mod-friendly.

Will need to discuss things after release.
