HI Charles, That's always a possibility. However, most of the time when games are modded it is with the purpose of changing the game itself to something else, or it is to improve the sounds.
For instance, when I created my Lone Wolf soundpack way back when I tried to stay to the original game as possible, but obtained higher quality effects. That kind of modding was probably benificial to the game rather than harmful. At least I personally think so, and my intent wasn't to change the game itself. However, I don't know if you remember this, but about five or six years ago I do recall roomers of a Star Trek mod for Lone Wolf floating around. Someone had taken sounds from Trek 2000, grabbed some extras off the net, and tried to create a real time Star Trek simulation game. That was probably not too benificial for Lone Wolf since the sounds would be totally improper for a World War II submarine simulation, and if we are completely realistic about it even if they changed sounds, rewrote all the missions, etc it still wouldn't really live up to a real time Star Trek game anyway. It would just end up being a submarine pretending to be a starship. That kind of modding is hharmful to the game in the extreme. Cheers!
