Great!
Now I only need to hope someone who knows something about these stuff will make an improved Victoria.

Oh my God. Armageddon too. I must be dreaming!
This is so cool. This will take 'modding' to a whole new level.
I love you Paradox

I'm in shock.
Just... Wow.
Thanks Johan!
OHgamer, I guess it's time to have a little fun with Victoria, yes?

Is it ok to start threads in the "Paradox games" forum? I can start a new thread, but there are no other user threads there so I'm kinda reluctant.
I like to start a thread about how the community (covering multiple paradox games) can organize to make best use of this new opportunity given to us by paradox.

No it's not, and you could potentially have your posting privileges removed if you do. I don't recommend it.
Hmm... Clio... One step closer!

Am I overlooking a forum that covers all Paradox games? I can imagine certain advantages if the people would tackle this across multiple games instead of doing a completely separate code mod for each game.
***** Attention: Do not start a thread in this forum****magdat said:
I think this means that you shouldn´t start one
Does releasing the code for games such as ARMA effectively mean that Paradox has/is/will be ceasing to support these games any longer?
So....how is this all gonna work then? Do only programmers 'need apply' for want of a better expresion?

you will most likely want to have at least one person on any team that considers taking up Paradox' offer be conversant in programming in C++, which IIRC is the language the old engine sourcecode is based in.
basically, individuals and groups who take up a license agreement are going to become outsourced developers for Paradox, which means you or someone on your team will be responsible for working with the source code. Paradox' small staff of employees are not going to do it for you, most likely.
So in a sense, the basic minimum is going to be having someone, be it yourself or a team partner, who can develop or manipulate code.

"Wow" is grossly inadequate! Oh my goodness, gracious... seem better! EXCELLENT NEWS, INDEED!!!
OH,
When you get your hands on the Contract/NDA from Paradox can you post the "gist" of it so those of us interested in Participating can understand the requirements/responsibilities.
Thanks
Corey

I would love some more information on the T&C.
I think there's a large group of us out there who would love to tinker with the engine, (and who knows, something good may come of that for all to be had!), but can't guarantee their C++ skills will be up to the challenge of a fully publishable group of modifications.
I program in the .NET set of languages (C#/VB primarily), and I think I could contribute to a project, but couldn't guarantee it without seeing the source-code first, particularly since I've never done game development (mostly client/server data access apps). I wouldn't want to sign up for a team without knowing I could provide some assistance to the development process, and wouldn't want to make a commitment to Paradox that I publish if I can't carry through on that.
So, is there some place where more information can be had from Paradox, and is there any other sort of documentation slated to be released with the engine source?
