Modding The Sum requires creation tools from various sources, accumulated through trial and error over the years. They greatly facilitate the modification of the game from which it was created: Fallout Tactics, and should not be substituted without advanced knowledge.

Phoenix engine[edit | edit source]

This game engine was used to create Fallout Tactics and is therefore the basic system to modify it. It comes in 3 editors (Campaign, Level, Entity)
