FlamingMeat Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Thats the video, he has a model replacement for some gun that is a barrett and it isn't credited in the description and no-one in the comments have any clue either. Anyone here able to locate it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junnari Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Possibly this: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/9433/? Ps. it'd be nice if you'd let us know at what point the weapon appears, so that we don't need to watch the whole thing or guess which gun you are referring to if there's multiple weapons appearing in the video.

FlamingMeat Posted February 12, 2016 Author Share Posted February 12, 2016 You are correct. I was searching for standalone, replacement, and a bunch of other filters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlamingMeat Posted February 12, 2016 Author Share Posted February 12, 2016 It looks like he just ripped the model from a previous game's one and made it mirrored and compatible. Is that normally acceptable practice or is it borderline shifty? Like if the original modder is working on a port already but another comes out almost exactly the same as the one they were working on first and that guy gets a ton of exposure over the original creator. I'd be a little upset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junnari Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) I'd assume that he's not that stupid to make the mod without asking the creator of the original model for permission to use the model, especially when he credits him several times in the description.

FlamingMeat Posted February 12, 2016 Author Share Posted February 12, 2016 Would a mod be banned if it used an inactive person's nif model? Or does it have to manually be flagged by the original creator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junnari Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Not necessarily if it used model made by person who's inactive on nexus, but very likely if it used the model without permission from the original creator. I don't know how strictly the permissions are moderated, so I can't say if permission granted over third party channel like another site is sufficient or if it's required to get the permission over Nexus. Proving the identity could be quite big issue for permissions granted over other sites, but then again it's easy to modify the page contents with chrome's inspect element tool to create screenshot of fake permission. Considering these I'd assume that unless reported by concerned person such as the creator of the original mod, it might be hard to take actions against a mod that falsely claims to have permission to use the contents, as proving the lack of permissions practically requires contacting the original creator.

FlamingMeat Posted February 12, 2016 Author Share Posted February 12, 2016 That makes sense, thanks. #threadsuperclosed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
