The ability to modify stats and other figures to either replace existing assets (like armor pieces) or add new ones. diffuse and normal maps) and replace 2d art like maps The ability to retexture existing in-game assets (e.g. These “custom tools” are typically released in the SDK, which KC:D hinted at releasing.

For the most part self-programmed tools and hex editors were used to import assets – so this should be an improvement! Here are the important things the mod will require to work (maybe a developer can confirm if these will be available?): It’s a serious, polished project with a large following, and I hope KC:D will make a great foundation for the next chapter of the mod.ĬryEngine is a bit easier to work with than Attila, which used in-house tools that broke about a year after the game was released.

Once KC:D is released and I have a better idea what limitations/capabilities there are with the modding tools, I’ll continue posting updates, news, and plans here.įor the time being, the plan is to focus on a specific region of Westeros (e.g. It will be realism-based and not full of magic, dragons, or any heavy focus on fantasy.

I’m Blick Mang, the creator and developer of the Seven Kingdoms modification for Attila: Total War.
