Modding, will old Sins models be compatible?

from Sins2 Forums

As an "old skool" modder, my biggest question is of assets we designed for Sins 1, will be compatible or at least be able to be converted to Sins 2.

When you have a mod as large as 7 Deadly Sins, it would be terrible to have to remake all that.

 

AND - FINALLY!!!!!!  SINS2!!!!!  We have been begging for this for YEARS!  So awesome this is finally happening.  To all those devs that know me, I offer my help in any way I can.

Hey DANMAN, good to see you in here. This is what the FAQ says currently about modding for Sins2:

WILL YOU SUPPORT MODS?

Mods are a big part of why Sins of a Solar Empire continues to be enjoyed and played by so many. Sins of a Solar Empire II will provide an improved system to allow mods to be created, shared and downloaded from within the game and hosted on Stardock's Tachyon servers. So that all mod content is available regardless of where it was created or where you are playing.

But I just want to say, from one modder to another, that modding is important to us and that compatibility is a priority.  What exactly that looks like isn't something we're talking about yet.

Thank you Unikraken!  Yes, from one modder to another, this is very important.  Some of our mods are HUGE, and it would be a big undertaking if we had to redo all of the content from scratch.  If there is some kind of tool, that would be great.  Also the info about them hosting the mods on their own servers is great as well, as in the past I had to have my own server account just to host 7 Deadly Sins.
