[GLOBAL UPDATE] VERSION 0.85.0
Hello, dear players! We have completed work on the main functionality of the Workshop in Steam, now you can create your modifications. Over time, we will expand the functionality to fully open all the possibilities for modifying the game. Already now you can create / modify models, textures, materials, locations, databases, create your own factions and much more (the SDK itself is now distributed in the branch with the beta version of the game, you can select it in the properties of the game "beta_test 0.85 SDK"). Thank you very much for waiting and supporting us in our difficult task. We first encountered the implementation of the extended functionality of the Workshop, it was difficult and resource-intensive work. But it had to be done, because we ourselves started our careers by creating modifications for games (Half-Life 1, Silent Storm, Max Payne 1, Total War, WarCraft 3, Operation Flashpoint, etc.), adding excellent SDKs, map editors, scripts, scenarios, etc. by developers allowed us to gain our first experience in game development. And now, just 20 years later, we were able to make the game Total Conflict. We will support all successful modifications and their creators, perhaps some large mods will be able to come out later as separate DLCs (so that the authors of complex modifications can also earn money for food). And finally, we can continue working on fixing bugs and working on the main roadmap. There is still a lot of work ahead, we believe that only together with you we can make an excellent game that will be enjoyable to play even after many years.
