And Illwinter certainly doesn't seem to mind, from what I've heard and seen.

Well the random map generator and such didnt cross an imporant line. I dont see how a god-creator program can be done easily without snagging alot of images and such directly from the game.

I agree that being able to tweak the gods is much more satisfying, not to mention giving the whole thing that personal touch, and a third-party editor would be a great tool.

Well since the gods are in their own directory (newlords) and in seperate files that should make some things easier. The files seem quite encrypted/compressed so it might take alot of experimentation to get things right without help from Illwinter.
