popvirus2 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 I have built a settlement I really like and would like to share it with others... I am in the process of making/filling out the mod page information and came to the permissions section... I don't understand what extent I have to go to for permissions. If I list all the mods/authors I used in my blue print on the main page is that enough? Or do I need to go to each mod author and ask permission to use their assets during my blue print build? i.e. I used some Build Your Own Pool assets in my build. Do I have to get permission from Akarnan or is simply listing his name/mod name in a credits section of my main page enough.. Trying to figure out the routine of releasing blue prints to the community and I have tried to mimic other Blue Print mod pages the best I can... The biggest issue is I simply don't know if I have to contact each author of each mod I used in building my settlement or not... Patiently awaiting an answer... Thanks in advance, V/R, pops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M48A5 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 You have to get verifiable permission from any mod author if you are using their work in yours. Listing the author's name in the credits does not cover the need for permission.You can check the mod page permissions for each mod you are using to find out if you can or cannot use the work.

JimmyRJump Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 If you made a copy of a settlement with the Transfer Settlement mod, you can share that transfer as a mod without having to ask for permission to anybody, because the transfer doesn't contain the mods themselves. If I or anybody else would use your transfer, we all would have to download and install the mods that you used to liven up your settlement, because, like I said before, the mods you used aren't physically present inside the transfer, only references that will check the installed mods in the game from the person who uses the transfer.
