    Using assets from a game whose the company does not exist anymore

    in GECK and Modders

    Posted

    Hi.

     

    So, I would like to use sound files from SWAT 4. SWAT 4 was created by SIERRA, but this company does not exist anymore. I looked everywhere but could not find any informations to know if assets could be used; I presume that it's not legal but I still ask it.

     

    Generic question: is it tolerated to use assets from games whose the makers don't "exist" anymore?

     

    Sorry, again a question about legal stuff, I know it's going to be a bit redundant but hey :psyduck:

    I looked it up, and it appears that Activision Blizzard owns what used to be Sierra entertainment.

    Who built this?

    I'm still trying to figure out its purpose.

     

    Heh, I built it. I originally made just the quarry, then thought it would make an awesome pitfall trap. Next I decided to put a tower on top of that, but I never got around to building it.

    I don't know about rigging in 3ds max, but it should work about the same as in blender.

     

    When you first parent the armor mesh to the skeleton, make sure you don't create weight groups. You want it parented to the skeleton un-weighted. 3ds max should have some sort of bone weight copy script which will allow you to copy the base body's weight fairly accurately to the armor. When you have it copied to the armor, every vert should have a weight between zero and one, with one being no bone influence. Once copied, you will just have to fine tune the weighting to ensure there is no clipping.

     

    If you can't find the bone weight copy function, you can probably create weight groups from bone heat or another method to automatically assign weight based on proximity to each bone. It will be a lot less accurate, but it will weight all vertices to the appropriate bones.

     

    Not a lot of people use 3ds max here, so it might be best to find a rigging tutorial. The armor looks really amazing though :thumbsup:

    Anyone who has stepped on a lego piece knows the horrors involved.
