New topic

Let us assume I want to create a Tuning Pack with the CoH 2 Modding Tools. As of September 3rd, will I be able to 'copy' british units, create new units from them, use their models (animators) on other entities etc.? Or will I need to buy 'The British Forces'-DLC in order to access these resources?

Maybe someone who only owns a few of the current 4 forces can answer wether or not all resources are available.

Thanks in advance

Yes, so long as you do not simply unlock them for free, as per the official modding guidelines.

um, what does that 'Yes' refer to? Thread title? Or my last question?
Sorry, English = 2nd language

(...) As of September 3rd, will I be able to 'copy' british units, create new units from them, use their models (animators) on other entities etc.?

... right? Because one could consider the title my first question. That's why I am cautious here and that's why I now ask a second time, just to be sure, and at the risk of looking a bit stupid

I need to be sure as this will influence what I will do concerning that DLC.

Yes.

Check out the official modding guidelines for more information, though:

http://blogs.companyofheroes.com/blog/2015/03/25/a-word-about-modding-our-rules-and-guidelines

Specifically:

•Community created mods cannot grant all pay-for DLC content to users of said mod.
•Mods cannot grant an entire list of DLC content within one specific category (e.g. a mod cannot grant all USF commanders, or all OKW commanders).
•Mods that grant DLC content must also change the CoH2 game in some way. The sole intent of a mod cannot be to provide users with DLC content for free.

aerafield: yeah I already prepared my "Can't believe there's comic mode for the 10 daily visitors even on this April 1st"

Rosbone: @dasheepeh I guess that means this site is officially dead

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy
