To my knowledge, people were already able to import models/animations/etc at one point, with or without dedicated tools. The functionality was just removed in a patch at some point.
Relic wouldn't even need to make any more tools, seemingly, they'd just need to re-enable an ability that already existed at one point

Nothing else is really needed except Relic allowing model importing and editing as you can see here:
Everything else you just mentioned is possible otherwise.

Would have been cool to put this in Festung Armor or something. But alas, Relic doesn't want any more unit swaps between factions because of missing skins and voice lines etc. The Tiger swap was only possible because OKW happened to have some unused voice lines for it.

As far as I know, this was made possible due to Corsix's Mod studio and possibly due to the fact that at somepoint, coh2 archives worked differently. In other words, right now you cant make model into CoH2 not only because you cant edit archives and replace model, but because you cant make it into CoH2 format to begin with, because they are different from vCoH. I'm not sure here, but it might be the case. Because I dont think there are tools to even get existing coh2 models\animations exported from the game and used in any 3d programm.


Thats not the point. I know about this, but the point why was turned off because of possible abuse and data hacking? Well thats the most logical reason at least. What I was saying, Relic should at least allow community dev team to work with the models, allowing archive edditing for public isnt even nessesery to begin with if there is possability of hacking something.

Relic should just allow community to do all the work model vise and then just update archives themselfs and add thouse new models.

There's basically no point in why we can't mod how the game looks right now.

From what I understood this isn't a simple option to turn from off to on. The issue is that all the tools (except the AE) are completely outdated and would require a hell of a lot of work to get working. Most of the original devs have moved on so it's likely nobody even knows how these tools were coded. It would be great if Relic could update them, but it's understandable if they won't because it'd be a big investment and they wouldn't get much back from it at this point.

If there is ppl around capable of updating anti-cheat, I'm pretty sure they will be capable of packing SGA using Relic tools they used to make them.

I heard OKW had stug voicelines, is that true? Also, Ive seen somewhere that the reason Obers has generic voicelines is because they had voicelines for Honor Guards? Someone confirm?

Damn man, I would love to hear them all

Sometimes if you have Volksgrenadiers near Obersoldaten, they will say (paraphrased) "Stay away from those honor guard guys, they are crazy, fanatical."

This contains call in voice lines for the StuG and 251 Halftrack as well which are still unused.

And the Tiger one is there as well before it was put in the actual game like Sander said.

Otherwise that channel should also have other videos with the rest of the voices.

10:20 Holy shit its true! Honor guard units!

Hell I also remember some guy who made realistic vCoH skins was fiddeling with CoH2 models back in the day

Show Spoiler

And inf textures are VERY easy to get, you even can export them properly. So tecnically all that Relic would requare to do is just copy-paste existing unit for what custom skin was made and just assign new material to them. Boom, you have new inf model.

Also on top of that, I belive coh2 works in a way that it allow to share models and assign them to game entities. In other words, you have grenadeirs models have lets officer cap, if you made some minor editing to the model file. Like you can see on one of the pictures, where grenadeirs use officer winter coat + helmet.
