Modding in Software Inc. is completely data driven. Software Inc. loads XML files found in the "Mods" folder of the root of the game when it launches.

A mod should be placed in its own folder in the "Mods" folder and can optionally contain each of the following folders: "Companies", "CompanyTypes", "Events", "[[Modding#Name generators|NameGenerators]]", "Scenarios" and "[[Modding#Software types|SoftwareTypes]]".

== Software types ==

== Software types ==

|The types of software this company will develop. It should have children "Type" tags with a Name = "SoftwareTypeName" attribute and a chance value between 0 and 1, e.g. <Type Name="Game">0.5</Type>. A random software type will be chosen randomly, but weighted based on this number. Afterwards this number will also decide whether the company actually decides to release the software. OS companies only have Operating System defined here, with a value of 0.1, which means they will only release operating systems, and there is a 90% chance they will decide against releasing it each month.
