New Items + Granting Items

[Defender1]

Is it possible to create new items for the game? Or does the lack of a SDK prevent folks from creating new models & importing them to the game?

I noticed there's really nothing but retextures available for armor mods & was rather disappointed.

 

That being said, is there some way to aquire an item without buying/crafting it in game? IE - I download a retextured armor but I don't already have that so I can't view/use it even though it'd been modded.

Not until the toolkit comes out next year.

It would be technically possible at the moment to add the item to a merchant's inventory at a very low cost, so you may want to look through the existing mods to see if there's anything that does that or that you could easily use as a starting point to do it yourself.

 

An alternative way of doing it would be to apply the texture to your existing equipment. You can do that using the technique described here.

This works if you're really just looking at changing the appearance, and not concerned about the stats.

Indeed, one can copy the 2w.ent files rename the contents change, from relevant ones it is the contents change and with it(thus) change available

 

(in existence) things and therefore insert additional things(matters) in game.
