Do you not think that's a good idea? It's not like CA would lose much from it, would they? Instead, they would benefit from seeing how user modifications to the AI and such could enhance the game. All who say Aye!

I doubt sega would allow it.
If it was allowed (ignoring the legal minefield here for a second) than it's not a bad idea.

Re: Make Shogun Open Source
Yes, good idea for us... Bad idea for CA... It is full of "intelectual property" and probably contains code/algorithms/engines still in use in their newer games. So don't bet on it.

Re: Make Shogun Open Source
I believe that the almighty S:TW engine only extends out to the great M:TW before it was all totally removed from the series. That is probably where the problem with them doing this lies - M:TW still is a good seller - they always seem to have run out of it in my local supermarket! Perhaps in a few years when the S:TW engine is considered almost totally obsolete and M:TW is not an especially good seller.
