Have a look at fs2004? my god woman! how many modders have made that game bigger than it was when it was released? why? well it's because alot of their spare time, as a hobby.... was spent developing these platforms for all to enjoy! christ i still love the game cause i have the chance to mix it up, and not get bored with the same platforms!
And if boy genius above is right when he said that this could be the last naval sim? then take the gloves off, unlock its potiental for all to use! i think you will through the exposure that will bring your sales will increase, and as a result so will your profits, allowing you to continue along this track of developing naval sims!
Now just excuse me for a second, you say that your not in it for a profit? well, most titles that dont allow any mods what so ever in the faint hope that when they release an addon, they will be able to cash in on the publics interest and drooling need for a little more out of a static marrage, the company is usually in it for a profit! Companies dont do crap out of the goodness of their beating little pink bits!
BRING DOWN THE BARRIERS, GET THESE BRILLIANT PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO ARE MODELING THESE MAGNIFICIANT SHIPS TO ADD TO WHAT COULD! AND I SAY COULD! BE THE BEST NAVAL SIM OF ALL TIME!

I think SCS explained in very clear terms the situation.
If you don't want to understand then
MS doesn't develop software for the military, they invest billions of $ in research, they sell hundreds of thousands of office, windows software so you can surely see that SCS can't be on the same level of MS.
SCS has given the community the ability to mod the game, they are just not giving up the rights to what they have developped.
Just accept this fact and you will enjoy DW.
