  • Yeah, there are no official tools besides Unreal itself I guess. And adding new areas is not possible now. But you can do some things, so if you'd like to try your hand at it, get kaiheilos's asset editor - https://github.com/kaiheilos/Utilities. Just the exe, the other stuff is for a different game. There's a guide here for modding not just TOW but other Unreal games - Unreal Engine 4 Modding. It doesn't say but when you use the asset editor, use the drop down to change the version to 4.21. That's the version TOW uses. I made a couple tutorials myself on youtube - one for editing weapon level. I've found a lot of useful info myself in the discord servers for modding various Unreal games, especially the SOD2 modding server.

  • UnrealModLoader

  • Just wanted to leave another comment to say there’s more modding opportunities now because of a new tool called unreal mod loader by russellj here on GitHub

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
