Sarimae Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 The worst thing, and i bet it will come so, is, that big mods will be SOLD OFF as DLCs on steam. And sorry, but no...i don't wanna pay for betas anymore. That i am fed up with since ...well...all games since ten years, but especially with Hellbug London, Bug of Warcraft, Buggyfield 3, etc...

huntsman2310 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 No. Because that is Illegal. They'd have to ask the modder for permission, and it will take interest away from official DLC Bethesda makes for the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LHammonds Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 The worst thing, and i bet it will come so, is, that big mods will be SOLD OFF as DLCs on steam. LOL. I don't think so. The moderation and legalities surrounding it would be too problematic to ever work. How can Bethesda know if such-n-so modder really created that model? What happens if an asset that was used in a pay-for DLC was ripped from another game? Or stolen from another author and presented as their own? Was the model created using a non-commercial version of 3ds Max...which any works made from it cannot be sold? There is a VERY long laundry list of all kinds of problems that have no easy answers when it comes to custom content. If anything were every to be made for sale, it would probably be confined to just .esp plugins using stock assets. Even those have a laundry list of potential gotchas but it is far less than custom assets. I don't really know anything about SteamWorks. Are there custom-made community assets being sold through it right now? LHammonds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheElderInfinity Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I think TF2 also has community made maps, which are free to everyone, though Valve sells "stamp packs" for people looking to support the creators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
