evolvedbullet1 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I'm very new to this and I don't want to do anything wrong. How do I go about getting permission for a mod that relates to a movie, per say? Specifically it's an armor and I know what movie it's from. Distributed by 20th Century Fox.

Lanceor Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 If you're making a suit of armour that looks just like the one in Movie X and you created all the meshes and textures from scratch, that's fine (provided you're not making money from it of course). But if you use any assets ripped directly from the movie (sound and speech usually, but could be other things), then that would be a no-no. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evolvedbullet1 Posted September 6, 2012 Author Share Posted September 6, 2012 Aie, that is most definitely a no-no! Are you sure? I seriously don't want to be sued! lol :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlRocks Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Lol I definitely don't blame you for wanting to make sure, but no worries there, you won't be sued for it, especially since you've not used anything from said movie. That also means you're ok by the Nexus. Since you scratch made it, the absolute worst Fox can do is ask you to take it down, but it's very, very unlikely that would happen for a single armor, or even a few if you decide to do more later. Even more unlikely if said movie has no game counterpart. So you're good to go either way really. Hope the second opinion helped, and I hope your mod does well!

ch0k3h0ld Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 It might also help if you don't promote your armor as being from their movie. Just a suggestion. Big corporations generally don't like being connected with something they don't control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
