lShadowwolf Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Hello, I've recently made a topic requesting an armor import and got it blocked... So before requesting anything stupid again, I want to ask if it is possible to get different items from one Bethesda game into another. I'm talking about importing some armors from Fallout 2 to Skyrim and Fallout 4 to Skyrim. Is it legal? Are there any copyright issues or something like this? ( sorry, I'm pretty new in the modding community)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGMage2 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 If you are doing it only for yourself and never upload it anywhere then there is no problem. However, Bethesda does not allow porting from any of their games, even from Oblivion to Skyrim. Nexus respects Bethesda's wishes in this and if you upload it here you will be banned from Nexus.

lShadowwolf Posted June 28, 2016 Author Share Posted June 28, 2016 It's pretty strange that you are not allowed to port things from one game to another, providing they have the same producer... I mean, there are a lot of cool armors from The Witcher series ( thx Project Red ), but if it's Bethesda's will, so be it... I wanted to request either the Leather armor from FO2 or the one from FO4, so I guess I have to import them myself ( and yes, only for me, no Nexus sharing, no youtube, no nothing...just a little treat for my eyes )... Any advice/tutorials on how to import armors? I know there is some use of NifSkope or something like that ( I am completely new to this, I have no idea of modeling or other similar stuff, but I do have the patience and will to learn). Also, thank you for the fast response, and sorry for my english, I'm not a native speaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGMage2 Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Nifskope does play a part in the process but most of the work is done in a 3d modelling program like blender. Although porting the armor is not difficult it does require a fair bit of knowledge in using the software and that's where the learning curve can be steep. On the plus side once you learn how to do things like that you will have almost complete freedom to do what you want with clothing and armor. Whether or not this is really something you want to do you won't know until you try. Some people find it intuitive while others end up hopelessly frustrated. All you can do is try.
