Default Re: Interested in a Homeworld Mod?

The results of petitioning companies varies. Some companies are agressively against modding(Freedom Force VS Marvel/Other) which in the end resulted in there being almost no place where Super Man, Goku, Batman, or other characters for Freedom Force could be obtained. Almost the same happened for City of Heroes, though Marvel made a blunder in that case.

Some companies actually encourage modification and alteration. A good example is Freespace 2: Fans petitioned for the source code, and were allowed to essentially make use of it - which has resulted in Freespace 2 Open, which has better graphics and things. Thief 3 also seems to have the Mission Editor available too...speaking of which, we also have Space Empires IV, no?

In any case, the results of petitions, the actions of companies and others can result in many things. That is all there is to it, essentially.
