danya23 Posted January 29, 2017 Author Share Posted January 29, 2017 Modders resource doesn't necessarily mean free to redistribute. You might want to run this by an admin. I would not have taken that to mean that you are free to redistribute and the actual permission page does not indicate that.The permission page hasn't been edited by him at all, so I don't know if it's a matter of he doesn't want it used without asking or if he never decided to set up permissions. You're still right, I'll try and get into contact with an admin. Regardless, the rule on the Nexus is that you need explicit permission. You can't read minds. I understand, that's why I said "You're still right." I messaged an admin over the topic. He hasn't read it yet but hopefully will soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NexusComa Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I urge you to ignore everything NexusComa says about this topic. Funny ... after all I'm sure I'm the only real game designer here. Why create a resource, call it a resource, then not let people use it. Beyond giving them credit for their work what moreis there. The Nexus here wants you to ask permission. I'm sure that rule overrides any other for this site on this subject.I'm sure you feel you know what you're talking about in your limited view of things however to me you're just trolling ...This is why I don't release my mods here ... Toxic The way I look at it here on the Nexus for any mod resource ...If the author didn't say go ahead and use it all you like I don't even bother with it.As clearly he/she don't understand the word "resource" on a general public server ...If a person uploads a "resource" and has not stated it's ok to use it the whole thing should just be removed.What are they thinking, that this is their personal storage site or are they looking for make trouble ...

FrankFamily Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 The idea that "modders resource" means giving permission to use it is blatantly wrong. Modders resource is a mod category and a tag, nothing to do with permissions. "That said, this permission can be taken as a given for mods that don't charge any money." ==> This is not understanding how copyright works... at all. It's funny how some people always have an excuse originated in other people for their own flaws and non-doings. Life must be pretty pink that way.

The description doesn't have much to offer, except for the mention of modders and the creation kit. The fact ta in the new lands category just throws me off completely. No information on the permissions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankFamily Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Yes the description is massively lacky but permission must be given explicitly and clearly. He hasn't, the mod is not even in modders resource category and said tag is not confirmed either, even if both things wouldn't give permission as certain person in this thread is trying to assert.All there is he talking about the ck and a single word in the title (which again doesn't mean permission is given) You don't have to (and shouldn't) try to guess if the author wanted to give permission or not, it's explicitily given or not given, and authors are not forced to make their permission instructions clear so you can only ask and hope he answers.

You're right, I need permission. Maybe I can use a different model for the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agerweb Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 The description is not clear, but he confessed to not having very good English (better than my German though!) and I believe it was his intent that it be used in any way people wanted; however that's no help really. I am just glad I had my conversation about my use of the mod and assets with him before he quit last April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorKaizeld Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Yeah im changing my stance on this. While it is implied that isnt enough to grant permission Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danya23 Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 Yeah im changing my stance on this. While it is implied that isnt enough to grant permissionI think you guys are right. I'll just start looking at different models. If I get a response from the admins I'll make sure to post it here in case anyone is interested. Thanks for all the responses!
