Im just curious, is just me or SH5 is really harder to mod than SH3?
In some respects it's the same. Overall it's a lot more complicated to someone who isn't familiar with programming of any level. Take for instance the ScriptManager. It's a wealth of knowledge to me but to someone else it means nothing, probably is even greek to them. Parameters? Types? Events? Those terms I know exactly what they mean and how to interpret/use them but to someone else they'll have absolutely no clue. Knowledge of C++ will get you very far with modding this game. Python though is the key if you want to develop scripts and create new items/extend the game.
