An interesting question about mods...

[TheKins]

In the past, most SW modding was done with a clunky program that temp-patched the EXE (somewhat "naughty" I know, but oh well). Now that we have the code and sourceports emerging, we can fiddle with the game at a far greater level, but this also unfortunately leaves old TCs like Tonight Never Ends back in the DOS generation.

I guess this is a roundabout way of asking sourceport makers if they plan to make the game more flexible to mod, even if it's just a simple config file dealy like that old patch program did (Changing levels in episodes, text, some weapon workings)

Just interested, is all.

The way it works with all the duke mods is quite simple - just add a g command to the mod .grp file . I tried this with a few sw mods for example:
sw /glonukem.grp and sw /grw.grp
But this doesn't work yet - no doubt jonof has something similar in mind for jfsw tho.

yes he does.

Adding the '/gfilename.grp' support was simple and I have that done currently. Changing map information and episode names is on my todo list and I expect to have it done for the next release.
