Official Reiza position on modding?

1. Is it legally allowed, are there any license restriction from Slightly Mad Studios/EA?
2. Could Mods be part of low cost DLCs as a workaround and split revenues with modders?
3. Is Reiza planning a real support of Mods (easy to install, etc...)
4. Is have a sound plugin architecture or sound mods even technically feasible? Or is the licensing preventing Reiza from support sound Mods?

I'm guessing here, but if Reiza would fully support mods (inc sounds), it might have a shot at replacing AC.

 

In the beginning they said they wouldn't officially support modding, but they would'nt stop it either. So basically modders are on their own with what is available. However, plans and perspectives can change. I guess the engine is the biggest hurdle to implementing modding.

Stefano from Kunos once said if you're building a game engine, you need to structure it around modding if you want to support it, beacuse it's very time intensive or even impossible to retroactively implement modding into a finshed game engine.

Maybe there is an updated statement on modding in AMS2 from Reiza, or at least their stance can be reaffirmed officially.

 

lot of sims support mods (reiza's AMS included) but no one can even touch AC1
in popularity (just yesterday did a all time peak steam record 8 years after release with more than 15000 players driving it at the same time)
very difficult shot mate.
a shot at replacing rF2 is easier IMO.

 

I just hope to see track mods and skins for tracks in the future for AMS2.

 

It's fair and probably sensible that Reiza should not supply "tools" to modders. However, i assume there's no contractual position that would stop Reiza providing information to help genuine teams like VRC/RSS/URD gain insight into how they might improve aspects of their modding such as audio for cars?
