Omesean Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Hey everyone, I have created a mod that changes sound files of the shout Unrelenting Force to quotes from the Knigts of Ni, from the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I´m not Michael Palin, and hence do not own the files, nor do I have his explicit permission to use it. Hence, I haven´t uploaded it yet. Browsing through the Nexus (FO3 and FNV mostly) I found many mods that add songs to either Fallout´s radio stations. I somehow doubt the authors of said files asked each and every artist of those songs. So should I? Or is there a legal difference between music and sounds from movies? Please help me out, I would very much like to release it to the public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zonzai Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 The songs were probably made available for general use under creative commons licensing. Also, soime things, books and songs specifically, can become part of the public domain after a period of time. My suggestion would be don't upload your file here. There are many sites that will take it. If you can, try and send an email to the monty python guys. Find an official or semi-official site and try to get in touch with somebody who will be willing to give you the go ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farkregistering Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 If you live in the US, it should fall under the Fair Use provisions in the copyright laws; in the UK it would be under the Fair Dealing provisions. Just keep the clips short and you're fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
