Mod or modification is a term generally applied to personal computer games (PC games), especially first-person shooters, role-playing games and real-time strategy games. Mods are made by the general public or a developer, and can be entirely new games in themselves, but mods are not standalone software and require the user to have the original release in order to run. They can include new items, weapons, characters, enemies, models, textures, levels, story lines, music, and game modes. They also usually take place in unique locations. They can be single-player or multiplayer. Mods that add new content to the underlying game are often called partial conversions, while mods that create an entirely new game are called total conversions and mods that fix bugs are called unofficial patches.

Do you play any games that have mods?

Do you play any mods?

Do you create any mods?
 
Mods in games can be fun but when you use them to gain advantage in online games is not cool and unfair.



Modding with friends in private games is fun though, I'd like to use mods for fun but don't have access to them which sucks...
 
I have a bunch of mods for Morrowind and Oblivion. Got a few campaigns for AoE2, but that doesn't really count does it?

I know how to mod (and have done so) for Morrowind.

Online games shouldn't really be modded.

Hadn't heard about it before you mentioned it. It sounds like a rather good game tbh. The only thing I worry about is the amount of bugs...

Yeah, that's what kept me away from its predecessor for Morrowind

I wonder if it's good to play by now.
