There's only one way to get new Units in Game so far.
And that is if the Dev's do it.

There are a good number of us working at Imports.
But one of the BIGGEST things hindering us?

The Granny files!
Those are and have been a Nightmare to many Game Modders for
quit a long time now.

I understand why Ubi went with Granny.
It's a fantastic Dev and Game system!

But to make a highly Moddable Game,
as was claimed?
Why deny us the ability to import new Units right from the get go?


Maybe there is a seperate License fee from RAD Games
to give us that feature.

And Ubi wants to make money before releaseing a tool add-on like that?

Of course, how else could they charge us for DLC when great modders can make more and better ones for free.

Ding, Ding, Ding!!

BINGO!

...Thus the REAL reason for the DRM/OSP. Ubisoft likely considers any modder who creates free add-on units as a threat to thier income stream, and thus no better to their bottom line (add-on sales) than pirates.



Do not hold your breath for a Granny importer coming from Ubi anytime soon,...if ever.
