Weapons of Previous Games

It's illegal to port them over to Fallout 4 but you can still get away with it anyways. There were tons of assault rifle weapon mods that were ported from Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 2 to Fallout New Vegas a few years ago and nothing happened to the mod creator, just don't turn it into a business or anything like that lol.

Are you saying that act of porting them is what is illegal, because my understanding is that its the distribution of copyrighted material that is illegal. So, again, the question is whether this is legal:

A distributed conversion program that:

  • doesn't contain any copyrighted material
  • reads the legally obtained (and copyrighted) files of a game
  • performs the conversion
  • outputs a "mod" that does contain copyrighted material (but can not legally be distributed)

I feel like this question has likely been answered before, but i haven't found an answer.

 

Also, i realize this would be unwieldy and would complicate the modding process, but it seems to me like the explanation that it simply is not legal might not be technically correct.

This is such a no brainer to me I am surprised no one has done it yet...seriously! Every single weapon from FO3 and FNV would be a massive, but well worth while creation. Personally, I want the Ranger Sequoia from FNV, but why stop there?

someone out there, can't remember where, is making fusion rifles (looks like a cross in design philosophy between the new laser rifles and old fusion rifles), a plasma defender (looks a lot like an original plasma pistol from the 1-2 days, and wattz laser pistol as well as the laser pistol from van buren
I saw the images for it, but can't remember who

Has anyone ever thought of bringing in weapons from the previous FO games such as the Automatic Rifle, 12.7mm Pistol, Service Rifle, etc under a single....erm...would download page be the right term? All being balanced functioning with eachother, leveled lists n' all?

 

Seen a number of things like the Chinese Assault Rifle and the R91 on Nexus but there's still quite the number of weapons to be brought back and would seem like an exciting prospect for them to be all in one huge pack.

 

Plus theres something special about that certain look they all have. All based on real weapons but not quite the same~..

there is a mod for Browning Automatic Rifle which is the automatic rifle of FNV
