And are you talking about a doc file on their website? I didn't see any information about it there.

Also in dom1 for the life of me I could never figure out how to use graphics already in the game, which drove me nuts
Well the mod files that are available from Illwinters site. http://www.illwinter.com/dom2/mods.html
can be downloaded and looks at. They are just text files and tga files.

The MonEdit.pdf lists the things that could be done in Dom1 and between the two I dont see much difference other than the mod files finally give a clear example of how its used.

Im not sure what a mod tool would add except maybe a graphic menu thing (Ive got a sig line about Users and menus but its kindof insulting).

To use game graphics in your own works...
start a game, find the unit
hit the "print screen" button at the upper right hand of your keyboard
put the game down to the bar for a minute with something like Ctrl-Esc
open a paint program
go to the EDIT menu and hit "paste"
make changes and save
