Halo mod; but not for public

[FrostFlake]

All halo armor and weapons are converted from FO3 (Original) to FO: NV. -(setting of the weapons will be different from the original since I haven't played the original)

 

Problem is I need permission from the author to upload this. :(

 

It is simple 2 Mb file that needs the original Halo files from FO3 to NV directory instead. This is basically a patch to port it from one directory to another to make it compatible. But i still can't upload because Vagrant0 doesn't recommended it; when everyone had that argument about uploading other peoples files here. -Forum

 

 

 

There are basically two components which count as theft of a mod:

 

1). Unauthorized editing/distribution or resources (meshes, textures, sounds, and other objects which exist outside the .esp/esm, both in whole and in part.

2). Unauthorized editing/distribution of .esp/esm related content (scripts, game settings (to a degree), UI settings, duplicate forms, duplicate actors) which is unique to that mod.

 

If either of these are present, the mod is liable for removal and the uploader may be banned. You can certainly look at the .esp and re-create it from scratch, but you are not allowed to duplicate work. We moderators have ways of being able to tell which is which.

 

then compatibility patches should be fine right? just getting clarification and a 100% yes or no answer.

As it currently stands, this is not advised since authors may take offense to people just randomly making patches for mods which they were working on converting themselves and just start pulling their mods. It is NOT SUGGESTED now or any time soon in regards to FO3 and FONV content since there are so many people uploading compatibility patches for mods. If you want to force a clear yes or no answer, the answer at this time will be a no.

If anyone can come in contact with the original author, please do and show this forum to prove the work that has been put into this. Thank You!

(Because I need the author's permission to Upload)

 

For those that are wondering, yes they are all iron sighted. (sniper is scoped though)

Since there's no indication of re-use on the description of the original mod, I'm going to assume that you're going to have to ask for permission.

[TheVampireDante]

You'll have to find the 'author' (Toxa01) of that somewhere else if you want his permission. I doubt you'll get permission to release it here from him though, seeing as Toxa01 is actually banned from this site himself.

I got a reply from Toxa01, it goes as follows

toxa01,

 

FrostFlake has sent you this email from http://www.thenexusforums.com/index.php.

 

 

May you please port your Halo mod from Fallout 3 to Fallout: New Vegas.

 

or

 

If I may be granted permission/approval to port your Halo Mod for FO:NV compatible. (Of course 100% credits to you & not even 1% to me)

 

either way, I would love to see this mod in action on New Vegas.

 

Thank you for your time!

sorry,but no,i dont wanna see my ported mods in New Vegas"

 

This was my first e-mail (before I started the mod) and will respect the author's wishes. The Only way we can get another Halo mod into FO: NV if we start from scratch or he changes his mind OR you port it yourself to your own benefit privately without uploading it. But for now I sorry to say this file won't be on the net.

Yeah, keep it up. I just converted his halo armors (and a few others) for myself as well and it sucks that he won't let it be "formally" ported (though not surprising). Keep trying though, hopefully he'll have a change of heart. BTW I was inspired to convert because of another halo mod that recently got posted to the NV Nexus that wasn't quite as good as Toxa's.

 

P.S. Did you find the helmet textures somewhat lacking? I can't tell if some of them are undetailed or if i did something wrong. Oh well. Toxa still kicks ass.

[Etaenryu]

You do realize you could upload it to a different site, though I recommend that you give him kudos there...

It isn't like it's copyrighted, right?
