[TEC] You guys are doing it all wrong AKA How to mod a Unity Game

The SDK will most likely change everything. It's why we won't make larger projects. At least i won't. The mods i made were merely a test to check out textures and such. It's also why i won't pay that much attention to above post.
Saying we done it the wrong way is stretching it abit. It's just several ways to do it. Both ways has it's pro's and cons. Only way to make a mod really user friendly, when it comes to stacking, is that modders work together and share their assets which we already do.
Grey wolf texture pack is the only mod that doesn't crash with my insignia mods. Well, except for the removal of the smoker.

I also sendt over my U-96 textures over to the modder that made the cammo mod.

When it comes to the download size it's about the same size either way. I've tested this.

I meant wrong as in "according to Unity standards and conventions." Both approaches certainly work, and you are right that the SDK will change everything.

That would rapidly change with larger mods, but yes, at the moment it seems the case.

At any rate: The only mods that I am aware of right now worth bringing up to speed are basically the GW one and the insignias... So perhaps not worth worrying about. Shall leave that to you. Until there are more options it's not worth worrying about really and seeing SDK code already present really makes me think we are closer to release of SDK than I initially thought. So perhaps this post may be best ignored, perhaps not. Time will tell, right?

SDK is planned to be released sometime this summer so not that long to wait

Indeed. I learned that only recently but it's certainly the route to aim for, given it is soon.

Still leaving this info up just in case someone wants to learn unity packaging, heh.

Thanks for your input RTB and for taking the time to write long tutorials

R-T-B have you found out if it's possible to modify the sounds? I'd be very keen on the possibility of replacing the awful weapon sounds.
