danshive Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I'm wondering if it's acceptable to include files from the game that are almost entirely unedited, or just renamed / moved. For example, including skeletonbeast.nif with a mod, and the ONLY change is that it's been renamed to "skeleton.nif" in order to override the default skeleton and make it possible to add tails with proper animations without editing the races (thus increasing compatibility with other mods).

marthgun Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 im no expert, but if you mean taking Skyrim vanilla files and using them in Skyrim mods, then I don't think that's a problem at all. obviously you can't say you modelled them and congratulate yourself, but a lot of mods on here are edits. I'm editing a few of the shack walls here in a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jet4571 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 That would be acceptable if you are using the file for another purpose and renamed. What is not acceptable is including vanilla files that are doing the same functions with no changes at all. Not acceptable:Uploading the Esbern dialogue files after you extracted from the .bsa as a fix for the Bethesda screwup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
