For Japanese on Youtube I usually search for game name or just <| sep |> I tried to get takeout one time from there . They said it would be 1 . 5 hours , since the restaurant was on a 1 . 5 hour wait . Is that normal ? To handle takeout that way ? <| sep |> You have stated that the engine is not responsible for the modability , that it ' s the data files , the implication being that the data is portable to any engine . No , I said the code written on top of that engine is responsible . Obviously that framework might be or not be compatible and ported with lots or minimal effort , depending on how that framework and the new engine is written . But the modding capability does not come the engine , Gamebryo , it comes from Bethesdas upper layers that they put on top of that . This is what I ' ve been trying to say in this chain of comments . Obviously porting something like this be a huge effort , and again , depending on how Bethesda wrote this layer and how the engine vendor wrote his , it might be a ton , might be less effort . But it IS possible to use a new engine and still retain pretty much the same modding support , or a big part of it . Bethesda will have to implement the new game with similar ideas , structure , ideology , etc .
