Modding thread

Had no idea people here would be modding too.

orly?

Modding IT. At least during beta.

I still remember when this site was agianst modding pre-wc3 release.  With reason, I know, but still. Then again, many admins have changed in the years

And being brutally honest, during wc3, CC fell quite behind.

[Lavarinth]

Working on it.

It wasn't so much the modding, but rather the rampant piracy of the game by said modders being openly encouraged by a certain community site.

Hence my "with reason" statement. I don't blame anyone, I just think that wc3 wasn't CC's strongest era, so it was the last place it came to my mind to check for SC2 modding.

For those finding moonspeak too messy, I scavenged the relevant bits:

Yeah I havn't been paying much attention to them lately because I'm not map oriented.

[Alevice]

Me neither (unless it is a cheap EU3 ripoff). But I still try to see what can I do already and every modding place is a good place.

Just for shits and giggles, I have also worked on determine how the whole item/inventory business fits together. I have updated the hero mod to reflect my discoveries (Captain Zealotron can carry sweet preplaced loot!)

Missing IMO is a way to restrict containers to a given item class, restrict containers from equipping items (and only carry them) and charges. But that will be for later.

Custom item layouts against a model would work great for my Wahtleships concept. Items that take 1x2 or 2x2 slots would probably require triggering however.

Yeah, I saw that and was referring to it.
