mav1566 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 hey i was just wondering if anyone would like the idea of have a game world mod of one game to use in the other ie. if your playing new vegas some one puts out a mod of the dc world with miniquest in vegas allowing you to travel to dc treating fallout 3 world like a dlc, and vise versa for fallout 3 or would that be crossing a line with developers? i figured i would throw that thought on here and see what people thought. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonger Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 The idea sounds good but it violated established copyright rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav1566 Posted October 19, 2010 Author Share Posted October 19, 2010 The idea sounds good but it violated established copyright rules. i kinda of figured a legal reason not to do it would pop up but i figured id ask considering the universe is the same and it would be sick be able to bring items from both game into both worlds. thanks for clearing it up for me :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quetzlsacatanango Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 I'm not so sure it would violate any copyright. I read earlier that NV contains all the FO3 + DLC assets. If that's true (I don't have the game) and you make it require the original fallout3.esm, where is the copyright/license violation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sagittarius22 Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Unfortunately my GECK crashes when I try to load Fallout3.esm with FNV but maybe a merged patch could work...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilneko Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 For story purposes (see sig) I'd love it if I could go back and forth to DC and Vegas, via Mothership Zeta's teleporter. XD That'd be awesome. But, legal mumbo jumbo blah blah blah. Even putting that aside, it'd probably be a huge PITA to get it to work anyway, changing all the references and stuff. Not even sure how much I'd really use it anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnu Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I love this idea it reminds me of Morroblivion which sadlyw as banned from The Nexus. but it was a great mod. msadly it didn't link the games like you wanted it was only a way for the Champion of Cyrodil to get to Morrowind the Nerevrin(sp) couldn't go to Cyrodil.

TheSaltyDalty Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 This is a pretty good idea and all but it sort of seems pointless. There would be no reason in being able to go to the other world unless there was some kind of story, right? So unless it makes so much of a difference to have the New Vegas items in the Fallout 3 world, then it would end up just being a quest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
