I'm sorry this is coming later than I anticipated but here's the info on the mod tools for Airborne:

I've been working with people on the team, including our technical director, and unfortunately I have to report that we won't be delivering mod tools for Airborne. The simple honest answer is that the version of Unreal Engine 3 we used to ship Airborne did not support modding. We have been involved in several code updates since the ship of the game, but the varied costs of integrating a newer version of UE3 backwards into Airborne to allow modding is prohibitive. There is too much code we'd have to update, and it would essentially mean rebuilding too much of the game's architecture.

Had Epic been farther along with UT3 while we were developing Airborne, things would have been different, but that is unfortunately what happens when you develop a game while the technology is still being developed.

Bet you didn't see that coming, eh?

Guess the folks over at TMT who planned a mod to bring the AA gameplay to A will be VERY disappointed.

Well, good for me I didn't buy Airborne.

Haha, I tried the demo of Airborne and I was shocked! The aim business was garbage. I don't know how people can play that game. Mod tools would have been good...
