Uerba Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 (edited) i noticed some mods that converted oblivion files to skyrim so any guide on that? Edited November 26, 2011 by Uerba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaoMengde777 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 id like to know too.... when modtools come out it should be rather easy.both games use the same types of files... .dds (textures) and .nif (models)so it should be simple... not sure about animations being correct for all swords and stuff......i imagine there wouldve been a ton of morrowind -> oblivion mods.... but the graphics were so much different...but hell yes we had oblivion woot!i wanna dl and transfer sooo many weapons and armors into skyrim lvl lists...

bassist02324 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 ^^^ ... ^^^ Made my day. HOWEVER, back to the posters question... someone DID manage to get fallout 3 to work in NV... You went through a sewer or something and BAM! Your in the Capital Wasteland... So I wouldn't be surprized! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matth85 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Converting files directly from game A to game B is against the law, and might get you sued.Making the models from scratch is, in theory legal, but might also get you problems.

Maxs1l Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Don't really know, but i can for example port meshes, scripts, textures etc from fallout new vegas to fallout 3 (or the other way around) And seeing how every bethesda game ~2006 uses more or less the same base engine so meshes and textures are in the same format, whilst animations, scripts and such should work aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barlas Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I think what the OP is asking, is if it is possible to send mods from Oblivion to Skyrim. Which in this case, yes. It should be simple with the knowledge of how to rig models and use CK once it is released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are not allowed to copy something from game A to game B. And I do not mean "law" as in "boring rule": It is against the LAW, as in sued, costy stuff. I think what the OP is asking, is if it is possible to send mods from Oblivion to Skyrim.Playermade mods are, of course, simple to port over. The game engine is only modified, so we can guess the scripting is the same. Thus it's just about to alter small parts. The custom made models are the same no matter that.

Ghogiel Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 so we can guess the scripting is the same. smkviper said he rewrote the script language. though it is probably going to be similar, he said that he was inspired by unreal script. so a kinda C++. so different but not all that much different. Just a rewrite of any scripts would be needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrannus007 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) Of course it would be illegal to upload files from Oblivion, but would it be all right to have a program to convert them to Skyrim? Against the law. You are not allowed to copy something from game A to game B. And I do not mean "law" as in "boring rule": It is against the LAW, as in sued, costy stuff. This sort of thing is actually a legal grey area. EULAs may or may not be legally binding. It hasn't been tested in court yet.
