Dear UBI Reps/Kimi (think she left didnt she?)

Can you confirm this statement by supposidely one of the UBI Dev team published in an interview with IGN http://pc.ign.com/articles/846/846707p1.html

In there is a statement that you will not be providing an SDK. So we can assume there is zero mod support for FarCry 2? Yes, its an assumption, but an obviously true logical one if you arent doing an SDK.

This also means that if you wont do Assault mode as standard, that it can never be modded into the game, which would be sad.

As a devoted FC1 fanboy, this saddens me Angry but would be extemely happy if you turn round and say that you are doing an SDK or at least "will consider based upon time and cost" Wink2

I've no idea why I'm asking here, because you probably wont say anyway and tbh I dont blame you, but ive edited the post too many times to retract the question Too Happy

Hey Clivey... I'm really wanting to know more on this subject as well...

Please, Ubi... an official yes/no?

It's not too much to ask is it?

An SDK is necessary for this game to truly last! Please, if one can't come with release, at least make one after release.

I'd be happy with 3-5 months after release or even 2 months after the 1st patch (as thats really considered an extension of normal release dev time nowdays)

TBH it doesnt even have to be a full blown SDK, even the exporters and some LUA code documentation (assuming they are using lua) is enough for most mod teams.

So me I'll be happ with just the above if it means increasing the chances of a SDK release.

Too many people ask for the C++ Cpps to compile a new DLL, when 99% of them cant code C++. Just keep it a simple and small SDK, but something is better than nothing.

Although I don't have a clue what Clivey is on about in that last post, I do catch his drift and totally support it.

Any modding tools, how minimal they may be, will have great added value to the PC version of the game and since PC was and is the core platform and Ubisoft wants a game that sets new standards Wink, it's hard to go without.
