Exactly. This should make it easier to create mods for the game. While I
could, I wouldn't fancy
having to create
real 3D models for all my modified items when a simple picture would do (maybe even a photo or screen-grab for media-based mods).
Imperium Galactica II is an example of a "real" 3D game, and while it's an OK game and their models are fairly nice, there are no user mods for it that I know of. This seems due to both the 3D issue and the fact that they "closed" their universe (unlike the
wonderfully open SE IV model where almost everything is modifiable!).
