I can make books of magic and other cults or religions. The possibilities are many.

imho you should hold your horses.

i don't think uploading copyrighted material

such as the tolkien and assassins creed books

is allowed through the nexus.

writing your own books is -of course- what we all want =D

Well, I have that books , and by the way, a guy sent the'' Sun Tzu - The Art of War'', and if I'm not wrong, also is a copyrighted material.

 

I'm not breaking any law of anti piracy, just sharing knowledge, which from what I know, there is no law that forbid me to model a book that already exists and put it in the game. This will not interfere with anything, commercially speaking, the profit of the author, because I'm not getting anything out of it, and yet there are so many books in PDF. to be downloaded and read on ipod, iphone or PC.

The Lord of The Rings is protected by copyright. They don't go handing out copies for free, do they? If you upload it you'll be in breach of copyright law, whether you make any money or not. 'Fair use' doesn't extend to reproductions of entire works of that kind.

 

Exactly what Tundra said, Theres a line that you cannot cross, "Fair Use" is for specific situations.

 

Example: Using the movie Advent Children, using parts of it in an AMV, and distributing it on youtube, would not break copyright, under the fair use law.

 

However, if I took Advent Children, and uploaded the entire movie, that breaks fair use law, as now anyone can go on youtube and watch it, and the original creators are getting no money from it, which they rightfully deserve.

 

Your right, Fair Use, is there if you yourself are making no money from it, however, dont forget the flip side, you also cannot take away from the creators of them making their money either :)

Dear god... If someone made a mod like this I would love them forever... FOREVER I TELL YOU!

Would probably be my favorite mod out there (depending on ease of use and options) Having a journal to write whatever in would be simply amazing...

there is already a master alchemy mod, which is a book that will help you remember the recipes.

no need to do the same work twice ;D

 

I'm inclined to disagree! Technically speaking, the game "keeps a journal" for you too- but that's not personal at all. I think it would be terrific to be able to keep my own journal of ingredient effects and combinations, in my own words, and with my own commentary, just as much as I'd like to do that with journaling my experiences and adventures!

 

Speaking of which- this would go brilliantly along side an as-yet-non-existant mod to create original custom map markers immersively, from in game.

 

"Found a splendid little fishing hole up on the ridge behind that bandit lair today. Must be careful not to rouse the bandits attention though. Also, mind the giant mudcrabs- they are sneaky and vicious!" *add marker that says ~Dangerous Fishing Hole~

 

Also fun would be the ability to keep notes and make custom markers INSTEAD of the in-game official ones:

 

"Deep ancient Nord Dungeon was the crypt of Hjerkum Jjerk. Learned a new Thu'um here that peels fruit with a shout!" or "Found a Forsworn camp up on the ridge, but my bag was weighed down with fish so I snuck past. Must remember to go sort them out before they make trouble for the village nearby."

 

For those of us who tend to explore more and follow proscribed quests less, this would be a marvel! (Not to mention how spectacularly it would fit in with Frostfall: Hypothermia for immersion!)

don't get me wrong FathomsDeep, i only pointed out that a recipe mod (not the game journalling mechanics) was already out there in response to LordSacasm's remark

It would useful for alchemy to remember those myriad of recipes, which is the main reason I don't use alchemy that heavily.

his question was about remembering recipes, thus a means to make your own book (with his own notes presumably) for recipes.

sorry if that was a bit unclear.

 

keeping personal notes (be it about recipes, spells, adventures and pitfalls your encountered and al the like), and as you suggest, custom map markers, would add greatly to the personal journey and immersion of any player wanting to record her/his adventures and thoughts in the game. sharing these would be even greater ;)

it's been a time since i checked this forum out, but is there a possible mod out yet?
