Members of the modding community share their tools and creations in forums such as the official Relic community forums and fan sites such as the RelicNews forums as well. Since that time, Relic has provided a map editor to allow players to create custom maps and a number of fans have created tools which allow other types of modding to be possible as well. This was proven to not be the case, as the first Dawn of War 2 mods were released during the game’s open beta within a few days. In the months leading up to the release of Dawn of War 2, statements from Relic Entertainment caused many to believe that the game would be unmoddable.
