In addition, as a welcome bonus, we intend to make the max source file including the tile kit available for the community. You will be able to improve it, expand it and update it (poly count, landmark buildings, new port locations, etc.). Practically, the kit will never fall into obsolescence as long as there will be a Silent Hunter III community.
There is a big difference between that and a full software development kit. An SDK along the lines of what is being discussed (demanded by some) here would mean opening up the source code for development, not simply modding the landscape.

Frankly, after seeing the fiasco that Falcon 4.0 turned into, I would just as soon leave the development of future iterations of this franchise in the hands of the development group.
