PS4 Mods Have Returned

One Major Restriction

It appears Bethesda and Sony have reached an agreement that will bring mods to the PS4 after all. However, there is one MAJOR restriction:

"Note - PS4 Mods are Plugins only. No archives are permitted." - source

Before realizing this restriction, I gleefully went to deploy Zombie Walkers to PS4 and received the following message from the Creation Kit:

PS4 does not support archives :(

What it means for Zombie Walkers

Basically this means you are not allowed to add custom scripts and can only modify assets already in the game. Therefore a direct port of Zombie Walkers is not possible. At best I could create a separate very stripped down version that resembles the first version I pushed out in July which basically made Feral Ghouls walk, not dive around, and take less damage to all but the head.

I'm not ruling out this possibility, but this is certainly a setback and makes me sad.
