Amnesia 6th anniversary community project (?)

[DanielRand47]

So what's our next project going to be? Make a HD remaster of Amnesia for PS4?

Can consoles even do mods?

Not sure. It would be a cool challenge if we could. It may be possible with the 1.3 update.

As far as I'm aware, consoles cannot use mods because mods rely on downloading files to differing directories. You don't get access to the file system on consoles, yeah?

Only way I see it working (like for the new Skyrim thingy) is if the platform is made to specifically support consoles with mods. Would also need to submit your mod to a workshop (like Steam / whatever consoles use).

Basically, I doubt Amnesia does nor will support this.

You may be right about not being able to access the file system on a console. You also have a point that they might not take mods for Amnesia.

Sorry a lot of salt here.
People rate the mod in a strange way but I'm happy they played it. =)

True true! Some reviews are better than others. Frankly I think many had higher expectations, but that's just me. I'm glad that I could take part in this endeavor and will certainly take part in the next community project. Until then I'll be working on my mod.

By the way, the community is not dead. Some guy on Moddb assumes so. Been here since 2012 and I'm seeing quite a bit of activity. Plan on sticking around for awhile!
