KiboCae Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I'm working on a companion mod that is referencing assets from other mods, i.e. the armor he wears is from an armor mod, hair from another, his weapon, and he also references other companion mods (though they aren't required, he just won't have the conversations if they don't exist) so using my mod would require downloading theirs for the actual assets. Is that something I have to ask permission for or is forcing people to download theirs in order to use mine enough? Just trying to get a clear picture on right and wrong here since every mod I've uploaded so far only used vanilla assets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodiak412 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Others with a better understanding will chime in but here is what I think. As long as you do not take others assets and include them in your own, you do not need permission. If you just reference the other mods that are needed, mark them as required, and provide a link to those mods, that will cover it. It is the taking of others assets and including them in your own, or redistributing them, that requires permission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorKaizeld Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 you do not need permission unless you use the assets in your mod. if the others are required to be downloaded you don't need to ask. though I suggest you PM them and mention your mod references theirs, some like to know about it.
