Is there a place to get the SDK source code for FfH2..? I'm guessing there is, as I think I have seen people like Sureshot talking about changing it around, but I can't seem to find one.
just wondering.

The SDK is C++. It's not *that* different from python, basically it's a different programming language but it does pretty much the same thing*. If you're comfortable enough with python, messing with the SDK shouldn't be too hard. The hardest part should be getting it to compile, I know there are a few threads at CFC that describe how to do it, except I don't remember where to look at exactly.
* the C++ coder part of me is actually screaming in my head that C++ is a whole lot different than python, but the SDK is really C code compiled with a C++ compiler. From the few glimpses I could take at the code, the guys at Firaxis sure look to be better designers than they are programmers... well, that's just me grumbling in my head :D

its not that hard to get it to compile, i've been playing with it in vanilla for a while. Wanted to try combining Dale's combat mod with FFH for catapults and such but need the source :(

have you tried pming keal or the lead programmer, Talchas, for the code... they may publicly post it later (much later... like when they are done with the last part of ffh). Keal has said that he hasn't posted it already because its allways being updated.

makes sense. will try it. I'd be happy with the latest patch version just to play with.
