    Also, can we get a link to terms of service on the support page? I had to google it, to find this.

    The usage of mods like that is completely illegal and will get you banned if caught. And believe me, you likely will be caught.

    Make a thread in the suggestion forum. Things like damage meters, threat meters, custom UI, etc would all be nice additions.

    Scroll to the bottom of the page and click "Terms of Service". The addons you are used to in WoW are not something that is normal for games in the free to play market. The games here do not have any legitimate addons that are considered usable or legal according to the ToS.

    Someon could make addons for it as long as they know how to use LUA and some graphic interface designing skills.

    Yes it may be proprietary software but so is [removed], owned by Blizzard entertainment and there are thousands of addons made for it.

    Although PWE would not own the addons, they would probably deny responsibility for any software failures in which may occur due to said addons. So no, using ANY addons is not illegal. Just the nude ones, which, doesnt make any sense anyway. If you want nude tons, get wings3d and design one yourself.

    I would not suggest that anyone attempt to modify game files for any purpose really. Users who do this will be violating the Terms of Service. Feel free to make a suggestion about it though b:victory

    Since it is illegal to do it, the simple fact of telling you how, would, in itself, be a violation of the TOS, and grounds for a ban.....

    Section 11, subsection (i)

    (i) Engage in, encourage, or promote any illegal activity, or any activity that violates these Terms or the Rules of Conduct;

    Therefore we can not even talk about it....
    Too often we loose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown, BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap that mother#$@%#^! upside the head.

    Say what you want, I edited my game. Here's how:

    On my desktop shortcut, I right clicked the icon, clicked rename. Changed the name of the shortcut to RAWR.
    Then, I held the alt button, double clicked the icon. I clicked change icon. Then I clicked browse, and selected an icon that looked like a ferret. Then I clicked ok.

    Now my shortcut is a ferret saying RAWR. I am that awesome.

    Just to clarify so this doesn't confuse people. He edited a shortcut to the game, not the game files themselves b:chuckle

    The devs would have to allow various code snippets to be publically released in order to legally do this that another game on the market currently encourages.

    I'm just thankful that this is a Korean/Chinese MMO without 800 bots running around.

    Not that I'm encouraging this at all, but another game I played that was popular and is free to play allowed the usage of a mod that would only show changes on your end and not the other user's end. So say if you made your pet bear look like a panda, nobody but you would see it that way, unless they also had the mod installed on their end. This was allowed by the developers of the game with the disclaimer that they weren't responsible for anything that happened to your game files because of it.

    So I just wonder if this sort of mod would be able to be allowed, since it's only on the user's end and not on everyone else's end.

    Thank you Skybelle for the wonderful sig

    Where did you go, where did you go? How did you know to get out of a world gone mad? Help me let go of the chaos around me, the devil that hounds me. I need you to tell me "Child be still". If the darkest hour comes before the light, where is the light?

    absolutely not b:chuckle Any modification of game files is prohibited. The way I think about it is, if you're the only one who can see it, why would you risk being banned over it? Not worth it in my opinion

    Nonono, I wasn't suggesting it be done, I was wondering if they'd allow it in the future or something (probably not) since other games have allowed things like that to be done.

    As it is, I would never suggest anyone break anything in the TOS. As you said, why risk getting banned?
