To Oleg or Luthier: 4.09 / mods question

[LEXX]

Bearcat::

IMO the issue of cheating is now moot... Now in the future things may go south... but fore the most part I have not seen the cheating... Some of the things from AAA are just flat out EXCEDLLENT... like the QMB Plus... and the ability to change default skins... the flyable AI planes... all that stuff is great..

Yes, as I have always predicted at the unmoderated ubi forums (Oleg was ran out) where accusastions of "wanting to cheat online" or "wanting to kill the sim" were allowed and even encouraged to be made against Oleg's customers who asked for legitimate modding. However, there is an ironic side if Oleg hack-mods his own sim as suggested here...

Bear::

I hope that 1C will look at some of the stuff coming from AAA and incorporate what can be incorporated or at the very least give the nod to some of the stuff coming out of there... because it isn't all bad....

In general, it is believed that Oleg does NOT favour the modding through the use of the hacked tools. If Oleg takes into his sim one (1) mod or a derivative of a mod that was originally created by the hacked process, then Oleg personally approves the hack derived modding for me on a moral basis.

Oleg's apparent position against hack-modding process is the "moral" reason why I refuse to use any mods but then I don't play the sim anymore because I would like to mod it up! A central bank chairman may call this an irrational connundrum but it is one that could be resolved if Oleg takes into his sim, and so "approves," even one (1) mod or a derivative of it.

Then I can buy my upgrade, 1C gets a repeat customer, and I can modup some early Easter Front which Oleg abandoned long ago, and some Spanish Civil War. I'd like to see JG52_Tuckie's Spanish Civil War modding team come back to the living FB from TargetWare.
