So this kind of mod is ok.
Other mods do different things that are not ok so they are considered illegal. If thats the point then I've always wondered why SCS, or the publishers (european, asian etc...) have never taken action against those guys. :hmm:
To close the discussion, what SCS says and what the EULA states are 2 different things. SCS doesn't want new playables, so according to them the first kind of mod would be illegal even though it is not violating in any way the game EULA.
Just something to think about.
